HILASON Flex Tree Western Horse Saddle American Leather Trail Barrel
Hilason Flex Tree Western Horse Saddle - The Flex Tree Western Saddle Built for Trail and Barrel Work
This Flex Tree Western Saddle pairs a hand tooled antique black finish with a lightweight flex tree that moves with your horse instead of against it. Riders get a balanced, close-contact seat for long trail miles and quick barrel turns, plus a full grain harness leather build that holds up season after season. Every saddle is made one at a time by hand, so the tooling, the seat and the finish all come from the same set of hands. Available in 14", 15", 16", 17" and 18" to suit every style.
Why the Flex Tree Changes How This Western Saddle Rides
- Proprietary flex tree with 4-way movement follows the horse's back rather than locking it into one position
- Fits horses with 6 to 8 inch gullet widths, so a wider range of stock can wear the same saddle
- Black rough out seat and a deep 5 inch cantle hold you in place when the pace picks up
- Anti-slip stirrups keep your feet steady through quick direction changes
- Crafted for durability without premium markup, so you get hand tooled leather at accessible pricing
Hand Tooled Leather, Silver Conchos and Full Grain Harness Leather
The antique black finish is hand rubbed over a hand tooled and carved floral pattern, then set with silver concho ornaments along the skirt and fenders. The build uses top quality full grain harness leather and American cowhide skirting leather, which is why this Flex Tree Western Saddle looks sharp enough for the show ring and tough enough for the ranch gate.

- Barrel racing and gymkhana runs where quick turns and a secure seat matter
- Trail riding, endurance miles and long afternoons on the mountain
- Western pleasure classes, ranch work and everyday schooling

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this Hilason flex tree saddle good for trail riding?
Yes. Every Hilason flex tree saddle is built for trail riding, and the 4-way flex tree moves with the horse's back over uneven ground. The same western saddle also handles barrel racing, western pleasure and endurance miles. The black rough out seat and deep 5 inch cantle keep you settled on long days in the saddle.
What size horse will this western saddle fit?
The proprietary flex tree is designed for horses with 6 to 8 inch gullet widths, which covers a wide range of stock horse and gaited builds. Because the tree flexes, it follows the shoulder instead of pressing against it. Always measure your horse's gullet width and use a quality western saddle pad before riding.
Is this western horse saddle handmade?
Yes. Every Hilason saddle is made one at a time by hand, including the hand tooled and carved floral pattern and the hand rubbed antique black finish. Because each one is finished individually, small variations in the tooling are normal and are part of what makes your saddle unique.
What seat sizes are available in this flex tree western saddle?
This saddle comes in 14 inch, 15 inch, 16 inch, 17 inch and 18 inch seat sizes. Seat size is matched to the rider rather than the horse, and the flex tree gullet range stays the same across the range. Check the product details for the exact size you need before ordering.
What comes with this Hilason saddle?
Each saddle ships with a matching tooled headstall, a breast collar, and front and rear cinch straps, so you get a coordinated western tack setup with the saddle. The saddle itself has a 26 inch skirt, a 5 inch cantle and weighs approximately 25 lbs.
Is the leather on this saddle genuine?
Yes. The saddle is built from top quality full grain harness leather and American cowhide skirting leather, finished with a hand tooled and carved pattern and silver concho ornaments. Full grain harness leather is the strongest cut of the hide and is chosen for western saddles that see hard, repeated use.
