Adam Ellis Saddles?!?

[becca1998]

Has anyone ever had one and whats the quality like? I have been looking at saddles for my 4 year old but am struggling to find specially made saddles? I like the childerics and Wow's as well but have just found these and they are a lot cheaper at £1400 instead of £2600

I haven't seen on in the flesh but the online pics look nice.

What is it specifically that you like about them? Lots of saddle manufacturers will put bling on your saddle for you or different colours and custom options

For a four year old I would either go for a Wow so you can change parts as necessary or for a good quality 2nd hand English saddle that you can trade in and buy something else and continue to do that possibly every few months for a couple of years if necessary

I'm not bothered about the bling I like the fact that you can have them made for you as well as the horse (I have really long legs and a 14hh pone) and I like that close contact cross country style and I have ridden in a few mono flap saddles and I prefer them as they don't feel as bulky under the leg. It was just another thought.

They are great saddles! He is based not far from me- the I have thing I would say is he isn't always the quickest at getting the saddle out to you, it may not always be the case tho this was a while back when he was more of a single band wagon!

They definitely look amazing and so much cheaper than the WOW'S or childerics (they have gone up to £3900)

A lot of Walsall made saddles will make you exactly what you want to fit horse and rider

But for a 4 year old it doesn't seem like a very good idea, even if they are cheaper than some others it is quite probably not going to fit your 4 year old when he is 7

I ride in an Adam Ellis, and absolutely love it. It was actually made for a friend's horse, and was then re-fitted with altered flocking by a Master Saddler to suit my boy. Immediate (positive) change in his way of going, and a happy horse and rider!

He does make a nice saddle but it's all down to the fitter as to whether they can get a saddle that works perfectly for you and the horse, same as most M2M saddles.
