Description

Barefoot Arizona Treeless Western Saddle, VPS, brown nubuck leather, size 2, with fenders and stirrups EUC – price reduced!!!

This particular saddle is a size 2, which is equivalent to a 16″ western (or even a bit bigger).  This saddle is only about a year old, and in excellent used condition.   Comes with a Certificate of Authenticity.

This saddle is in very good to excellent used condition.  I think the whole setup has been ridden less than 30 times.  It is clean.  Unfortunately, I did have it on one of those metal saddle racks, and it has some slight grooves in the underside from the rack.  They would flatten back out once it is ridden in on a warm horse since the saddle is designed to mold to the horse’s back. The leather is very clean and has only tiny nicks on it (one on the fender which is hidden by the rider).

All you need to ride with this is… a cinch, a saddle pad for a treeless saddle.  And a horse.  And a helmet. Always good to wear a helmet.

WITH EXTRAS INCLUDED!!!!!!

1. Brown Leather Barefoot Western Fenders, in the longer of the two sizes –  (these sell for $149 / pair)
2. Brown Leather Western Stirrups (practically new – only ridden in about 3 times) – these cost  $20. new
3. Two Barefoot Pommel Inserts – This saddle comes standard with the WIDE pommel with a horn covered in brown leather. Also included here is an  X-WIDE pommel with the horn.   The second pommel is normally a $89 accessory.
4.  Hip Saver Seat Cushion, in size 2 to fit saddle. This hip saver installs under the seat, to create a little more of a twist. It attaches with velcro.
5. There is a nylon billet and off-billet attached.

The saddle alone lists for $1099. new in the US  plus $332 worth of extras are included here.

  •    Promotes the development of a good topline

  •    Flexible in all directions

  •    With VPS system

  •    Ideal for short-backed horses

  •    Weight only approx. 6,5 kg
• Healthy back due to our VPS System   – VPS® stands for “vertebrae protection system”.  It consists of a combination of different materials which enable the rider’s weight to be distributed evenly over the largest possible saddle area . Even at a standing trot, the rider’s weight is distributed over the entire saddle surface there is therefore no weight restriction for riders.
• Exchange Pommel in Size WideThe standard delivery of this saddle includes an interchangeable pommel insert in size WIDE. Each Barefoot saddle is equipped with an exchangeable pommel at the front, which allows it to be adapted to the shoulder width of your horse. With the help of our measuring template you can easily determine the correct size of pommel insert for your horse (Link: Measuring template + instructions).
• Velcro Stirrup Attachment open and free positioningThe open stirrup suspension with Velcro fastening is attached between the seat and the saddle substructure and can therefore be easily adjusted. This means that the saddle can easily be adapted to riders with different leg lengths simply by moving the stirrup suspension either backwards or forwards.

Why am I selling this? I do not really want to sell it, but I need to sell some riding tack so that I can get a cart and harness, since my horse & I really enjoy carriage driving.

This saddle and accessories would cost $1431. for a new one. So this is a good deal!!!!
