Hi...I think a norton would be too narrow for your horse, my sons horse is a high wither narrow TB and the norton fits ok. My son is a tall teenager about 11 stone..he plays Polocrosse in the norton.
Hi, hope you don't mind me messaging you, but when searching for posts on Norton Stock saddles your name came up.
I'm looking at buying one for my horse but he's a 16.3 Irish draught. He currently has a MW kieffer munchen saddle. Just wondered what the norton sizing is like? Also you said the 17 was huge. Do you mind me asking your height and build? I'm 5'6 and a size 14-16 in trousers, so was thinking a 17 might be ok for me. Just concerned the norton might be too narrow, although the guy at Cotswold Sport said it would be fine with a thicker numnah!
Hope to hear from you soon, Caroline
