What dimensions for my custom saddle?

The basis for the design of an Arion custom saddle is the measurements of your horse and also of you, its rider.

Ideal size for you

Most riders want to buy a unique saddle in order to be more comfortable while riding. If you are one of them, then you are right, because you have realized that a saddle made to someone else's measurements will not fit you completely. After several hundred hours of use, it could even cause you back pain and increased fatigue.

Furthermore, the adjustable nature of the straps, the majority of the saddle's accessories or even the shock absorbers does not guarantee that the saddle model you have chosen will fit you! To avoid any problems, Arion guarantees that the saddle will be made to your dimensions only in order to provide you with a personalized product adapted to your personal riding style.

A morphological adaptation to your horse

From the moment you hire our saddlery workshop to make a custom saddle, we take the initiative to take measurements of your horse's morphology. This will allow us to adapt the interior of the saddle to the musculature and bone structure of your horse so that it does not cause back pain as it is used. Many riders think of a custom saddle as being adapted to their own measurements.

This is true, but it is not enough to design a saddle that is perfectly adapted to your riding style. A complete study of your horse's motor skills is also required to ensure that no girths or cushioning will impede its movements.

Thank you so much Arion! Your saddle has made a HUGE difference in my performance and has made me feel free and happy.

What types of customization for my riding saddle?

The notion of a custom saddle is still not well understood by riders around the world. In theory, it's very simple: each component of your saddle will be adapted to your needs!

A seat according to your practice and your preferences

The type of seat you choose for your saddle depends on the type of riding you plan to do and your own comfort preferences. The cross country and jumping saddles by Arion HST are available in three different seat models.

The flat seat is designed for people with a good sense of balance, as it offers great freedom of movement. The hollow seat is the exact opposite, as it allows the rider to remain perfectly stable, even in jumping situations. In between these two types of seats, you will also find the semi-hollow seat, which is a cross between freedom of movement and stability! Note that our dressage saddles are only available with the hollow seat.

Different color ranges and leather finishes

A personalized saddle means a unique visual finish that reflects your personality! For this reason, we at Arion HST design different chromatic solutions for each type of saddle as well as various leather finishing proposals. Between various tactile sensations and personalized colors, you will surely find the saddle of your dreams among our multiple ranges!

Specifically, all our saddle series, whether for dressage, show jumping or cross country, are available in brown or black. The cross country and jumping series also have an additional color: gold. In addition to the colors, the finishes available are calf lining and nubuck for each series, with the calf grained finish added for the jumping saddle.

Does my Arion HST custom saddle have any unique accessories?

By choosing the custom saddle by Arion HST, you will be able to take advantage of the know-how of our craftsmen in the making of accessories and girths for horseback riding.

Customized saddle, straps and accessories also

It is obvious that by selecting a custom made saddle, you are also making the choice to discard mass-produced accessories. This is because they would not be compatible with the specific measurements of your new saddle. In order to solve this simple problem, Arion HST also designs accessories of all types, such as halters and martingales.

Of course, all these parts are also made of leather. Our various shock absorbers, such as wither pads and anatomical models, can also be designed based on measurements taken beforehand on your horse.

Customization of sizes and colors

At Arion HST, choosing a custom saddle gives you the opportunity to enjoy bridles and girths adapted to your saddle. More than accessories, they can be made in the same color as your saddle.

All our girths can be customized in size and color (available in black and brown like the saddles). Our range of short girths is offered in sizes ranging from 115 for the smallest to 145 for the largest models. As for the reins, two sizes are available: the full size, to equip horses, and the pony size. To sum up, each accessory, from bridle to reins, is available in many sizes and customizable colors.
