If you could have any saddle for Christmas ..

A Bates Caprilli - I just love their saddles.

I'm still using my 20year old Bates Olympis which was a cheaper version being part synthetic, part leather.

I'd have a dressage, a GP and a jumping
 
Another Martin Wilkinson Saddle maybe in cc jump, current dressage saddle is the most comfy saddle ive ever ridden in better than any barnsby, jaguar, gfs etc
 
I looooove my WOW as I can ride totally pain-free & get NO trouble at all from my wrecked sacro iliac joint. I'd get another one for my other horse - I have an ex-racer & a sturdily built ISH who are saddle chalk & cheese.

H'mm, I wonder what's on ebay atm...?? **tootles off to blow a hole in her xmas bonus**

I would have the fabulous Native Pony Co saddle I saw at the SW equine fair. I can't remember the name, it's not on their website, but it was gorgeous.
 
I got mine (thanks OH!) and it's a second-hand Jeffries Hawk event which fits my new boy well and is comfortable and secure for me. It's basically a newer and larger version of the saddle I had on my old boy (too narrow for new boy) and I love it. Just need to buy some irons now...
 
The one I've just bought :) a Butet XC saddle fitted to me and horse :). If I had to pick a new one for Xmas would probably be another Butet for other horse, but I do also fancy a sidesaddle :).
 
My horse prefers a Barrie Swain Semiflex Dressage. What the boy is comfy in, he gets! They made to measure, came and fitted and came back out to re-fit 3 months later. Many of what I had thought of as "schooling issues" melted away...I would have to say now I am used to it I would not swap.........
 
jumping wise either a butet xc monoflap, barnsby extreem itree, albion revelation xc or a prestige or equipe monoflap - as it happens im saving up SUPER hard so going to end up with one of these soon hopefully depending on what fits best :)

Ive not masses of experience with dressage saddles - i have a Isabelle Werth which I HATE with a passion! Sat in an equipe emporio the other week and my word - my bum actually fell in love with it. need a new jump saddle first though!
 
My own! Wouldn't swap it for the world! Comfort Elite show saddle and it's the nicest saddle I have ever ridden in nevermind owned. Pure quality.
 
Barnsby event! When I used to guinea pig for master saddlers training and exams I always picked the horse I knew it fitted as out of all the makes they tried I loved that saddle!
 
I had a wow dressage saddle for about 7 years then I upgraded to an Amerigo. I really liked the wow at the time but the Amerigo is much better made and lots more comfortable. I wouldn't have another wow to be honest.
