This gorgeous custom saddle from Rider's Choice Saddlery features a unique Steele Equifit tree called the "NE," which was designed specifically for the straighter, broader-backed horse that needs a wider fit from the shoulder to the loin. It offers 1" more shoulder room than the average FQHB. The wooden tree is fiberglass reinforced, which locks out moisture and adds another layer of strength to the tree, adding to the longevity of your saddle. Comes with fully tooled matching flank strap and breast collar.
