Saddle Fitting Solutions, Handmade in England

Kent & Masters saddles are developed using Pliance Pressure mapping to ensure pressure is evenly distributed, encouraging freedom of motion. The saddles are hand-crafted in Walsall, England using traditional techniques and high-quality materials. Three unique panel profiles offer fitting solutions for low, medium, and high-withered conformations. Each Kent & Masters saddle is flocked with 100% British wool and is compatible with a changeable gullet bar system, allowing the rider to easily adjust the width of the saddle at the pommel as the horse grows, develops, or changes shape.

Kent & Masters S-Series Jump Saddle

Kent & Masters S-Series Jump Saddle

This Jump saddle features forward-cut flaps, with moveable blocks to support the rider’s leg over fences. Longer, swept-back tree points support the front of the saddle and encourage freedom of movement through the shoulder. Kent & Masters “S-Series” saddles benefit from extra design features and superior craftsmanship for a more luxurious feel, like the ghost stitching on the knee roll for closer, more comfortable support.

Colors: Black, Brown
Sizes: 17″, 17.5″

Kent & Masters S-Series Univeral GP Saddle

Kent & Masters S-Series Universal GP 

The Universal GP has a slightly forward flap, with a wider, flatter seat to suit riders who prefer a little more room in the seat, or a rider with wider hips. The GP saddle is ideal for low-level jumping as well as flatwork and pleasure riding. This saddle also features Velcro blocks and a flexible girthing system to maximize saddle stability. S-Series saddles have an upgraded design for more luxurious feel. 

Colors: Black, Brown
Sizes: 17″, 17.5″, 18″

Kent & Masters S-Series Universal GPD 

The Universal GPD has the same wider, flatter seat as the GP, but with a straighter-cut panel and longer flaps for the rider focused on flatwork, dressage, and hacking rather than jumping. 

Colors: Black, Brown
Sizes: 17″, 17.5″, 18″

Kent & Masters S-Series Compact GP

Kent & Masters S-Series Compact GP 

Compared to the Universal GP and GPD, the Compact GP saddle has a compact, neat seat that may be more comfortable for a petite or narrow-hipped rider on a pony or small horse. The flap is forward enough for jumping, with a deep enough seat for dressage and flatwork. The Compact GP is also available in all 3 wither profiles: low, medium, and high. Features Velcro blocks, a flexible girthing system, and updated “S-Series” design.

Colors: Black, Brown
