COMPANION TRAIL SADDLE

Trail saddle designed by and for DUETT!

The COMPANION is built on the RONDO tree. This is the tree that, at its widest, is the best fit on the table-backed, low-withered equines! (The narrower trees fit withered horses.)

These are the features of this fantastically comfortable saddle which make it ideal for both pleasure trail riding and endurance riding: Lightly quilted, soft seat is comfortable for unlimited hours...Wide panels distribute the rider's weight over a large area....Note: These are wool flocked panels and as easy for fitters to adjust as Duett's other wool flocked panels! SPECIAL FEATURE: Removeable/moveable knee AND calf blocks give the utmost in flexibility to the rider! No fixed block! You can remove the blocks for closest contact, or you can move them back to support your leg differently, or you can change the angle! When you remove the blocks, there is a piece of shaped leather which you can attach to the velcro to keep it clean.
COMPANION

Textured, grained brown leather on the flaps gives added grip and stability to your leg--it's durable, too!

Long billets used with dressage girth keeps the rider's leg comfortable....
Lots of D rings and a crupper attachment....

Available in 16", 17", 18", 19" and 20" seats (some in 17.5" also) with 32, 34, 36, 38, 40 and 42 cm trees.
NOTE: This saddle works well for Icelandics and other gaited horses.
In addition, with the movable knee block, it's easy to move the block back towards your knee and keep a nice, straight leg. Or--take the big front block off and move the little block forward, allowing more room for your leg or for shorter stirrups.

We have sold lots of Companions to mounted police in various cities (yes, it's that comfy!) and we recently noticed a cop in Boston riding in our saddle:


FOXHUNTER

Trail & elite foxhunter saddle designed by and for DUETT!

The COMPANION FOXHUNTER is a variation on the Companion trail model. This saddle is useful for trail riding, since it has the same comfortable padded seat, removable knee and calf blocks and the same tree and flap design. However, with short billets and two brass D rings on the right side of the seat, in a gorgeous, rich brown leather, it has the right look for foxhunters, or for trail riders who want a more traditional style. Same seat sizes as the Companion Trail saddle.

TANGO


This model was designed with three types of riders in mind. First, it's for all of you call and say "I mostly trail ride but I also want to school and show low level dressage," for those who ride GAITED horses with a long leg, and for those who want the comfort of the Companion models with the ability to ride with a long leg.

Note: this saddle is a hybrid of the COMPANION TRAIL--same padded seat and same wide, weight bearing panels--and a DRESSAGE, with a straighter flap and moveable block. The flap is just a little bit wider and a little bit shorter than on our dressage models. It will give you and your horse the long-distance comfort of the Companion trail.

Same seat and tree sizes as our other trail models.

We ordered the Tango with no back D rings or crupper attachment, so that the saddle can be used in the dressage ring. However, our fitter and repair person can add D rings for a small fee.
