Saddle bags

[SO1]

Can anyone recommend a brand of saddle bags for me. I am going on a riding holiday taking own pony and need to carry with me in the saddle bags - waterproofs, lunch, hoof pick and horse first aid kit, camera and phone.

Ideally looking for something that goes over the front of the saddle as don't have D rings at the back of my saddle. Must be as comfy as possible for the pony but not cost ££££

Check out the Guild of Long Distance Riders as has a list of equipment etc.

Have a look at the Performance Equestrian website

They do a whole range of saddle bags. I have a simple one that fits on the front and also their delux cantle one!

I did a week long trek with my old horse and used ones that go behind the saddle as they are out of the way then - I didn't have d rings either but tied them on to the front d rings, with the string etc under the saddle flap. They never moved and the horse seemed perfectly happy I think mine came from Robinsons - just bog standard things but they were fine.
