What Our Customers Say About Their Trail Riding Saddle from Iberosattel®
Uschi A.: Trail Riding with the El Primero
I can only report good things about the quality and workmanship of the leather too. Even after almost two years, the girth straps still look very good, and the saddle is in use about 4–5 times a week.
I can recommend Ibero's service to everyone. I know what I am talking about, because I have already had plenty of unpleasant experiences with other saddle makers.

Carina N.: Service and Quality Completely Won Me Over ...
Service, quality, and the concept of wide bearing surfaces completely won me over. My Friesian moves noticeably more freely and more relaxed in this saddle.
I myself feel like I am sitting closer to the horse, the small thigh blocks give me enough legroom, and thanks to the galleries I still feel nicely framed.
