Fairfax saddles

[Michelle1109]

Hi
Has anyone tried an Fairfax classic dressage open seat saddle?

Thoughts on This saddle / reviews if you own one?

Thanks

I tried one and hated it but seem to be in the minority ..l I know loads of people who love them - as with everything the only way to know is to try one on your horse and see how you go

Did you get one OP? Im potentially looking at one and just researching about them

Do they feel like Kent and masters to ride in?

I actually got a t8 Thorowgood and really like it
Good seat / position very comfortable and fits my horse really well good angles for her shoulder and fits well over her back
And it has the gullet system

The t8 looks similar but seat / position I find much nicer than k&m

I don't know what they are like to ride in but a few people at my yard have Fairfax saddles and the leather is rubbish, nothing at all like the quality of Albion or ideal and not in keeping with the price tag
