Hi would anyone happen to know of any saddle fitters n the Cheshire area that are actually still fitting? Have tired a few and all seem to have quit due to one reason or another
 
We are about 5 mins from Anita but she has a bad back and no longer doing it the other lady she uses no longer does it either may have to go down the Crewe saddlery route as these seem to be the only people still doing it

Emily Green is the lady I was thinking of wh worked with Anita. Where are you if you dont mine me asking you must be very close to me! Vaughn who used to run Chester saddlery might come out that far if you could get a few people togther who wanted to see him. I must admit this is one of the advantages of my treeless not having to find a fitter every 6 months.
 
If you go onto the north west page of the forum there is a thread on saddle fitters on there with the pros and cons for quite a few saddlers..
 
We are only in Capenhurst at the moment used to use chester until they closed and havnt got a contact number for them Anita did ask someone whilst we were there but they said they weren't doing it any more, will have a look on suggested page thanks
 
I really wouldn't recommend Crewe, had them out twice for my boy and despite muscle wastage, white hair and lumps under the saddle, apparently all I needed was a thicker numnah! Because thick socks helps lessen the pain of shoes that are too small..........

As a novice I trusted them and continued riding in the saddle until instructor saw, now have fitted saddle and all problems have gone.

Another vote for Andy Wheals. Used to have David @ Village Saddlery but got fed up waiting 2+ hours for him to eventually turn up....
 
I really like Crewe. They sorted out my horse after I had a very bad experience with another local fitter, and he is now comfortable. Always get a good service, v happy customer. Recommended by my physio too.
