15″ Australian Saddle Company Black Aussie Saddle

Here is a great opportunity to try an Aussie saddle without the insane price tag, and a plenty nice one at that! This pretty black Aussie saddle is made by American saddle builders Australian Saddle Company. This one is one of their mid line saddles, feeling far nicer than economy but not quite as nice as their really high end saddles (the ones that cost over $2k new!), but is still so nice. This one is an English style Aussie with bold swells but no horn, one that is sure to keep its rider secure without too much ‘stuff’ in the way. This one is a generous fitting 15″ (as measured as an English saddle, 16″ as measured as a Western Saddle) with a very deep seat. The seat is cool, as it has a hip hugger style roll at the top of the seat/cantle that gives even more security. Made with all English bridle leather that is quite soft. Has felted wool panels to reduce slippage, on what appears to be a Medium Wide tree, measuring 5.5″ with a moderate width channel. Will fit similar to QH bars as compared to a western saddle. Shorter panel length at just 22″. The black leather is really pretty, especially paired with its all stainless hardware. There are rings everywhere on this saddle, making it perfect for trail riding. Comes with stirrup leathers that offer a ton of adjustment, buckle covers, and a pair of English irons. This one is Dressage billeted, so does not need a special Aussie girth to ride. In VERY lightly used condition, spending far more time stored than actually used. It looks a bit ‘streaky’ as we photographed it before the leather conditioner dried on it. It is not streaky. Shows next to zero wear aside from a couple small scuffs here and there. The maker’s/brand plate had come off from under the flap..and its since gone MIA. So is not marked with a brand. We are advertising it as made by Australian Saddle Company, but if we had the darn brand plate, we’d be asking more for it! Get this really nice Aussie saddle for way less than retail.
