Leather Saddles for cobs

[lirago]

Hi there, we have a 14hh little coblet who has now outgrown his saddle and we would like to buy him a nice leather one but we have no idea what makes are available for coblets?
as he is getting wider by the minute!

All advice welcome x

I have a MW cob, 14.3h who was in a saddle company saddle now in kent and masters GP with adjustable gullet. I always have my saddles made to measure by a master saddler so cant advise much mre than that sorry.

Ideal H&C, they will make them to measure if off the peg doesn't fit and they are fairly easy to adjust if needs be later on.

Kent & Masters do a cob fit saddle, I have one that I got to fit my (weirdly cob-shaped) TBX. It's a lovely saddle, made by the same company as Thorowgood, but it's leather.

This is the one I've got - http://www.kentandmasters.co.uk/Cob_General_Purpose.html

Black country fit cobs really well and they make them super wide

The K&M ones have an adjustable gullet - meant to say that in my original reply.

I've just got a new Ideal for my cob, and it fits her beautifully. Black Country do some nice cob saddles too.

I have a Kent and Masters cob GP saddle. It's very comfortable and the changeable gullet is useful, we have just gone down a gullet size folowing winter and will probably go up again by the end of summer!
