Comments about Renee Phillipe Fontaine Saddle

This beautiful saddle fits and looks great on my wider morgan who has not been an easy fit for most English saddles, therefore purchased the wide tree. The fit for my horse and comfort for me were number one in making my decision to purchase this saddle, followed by price. This photo does not do this beautiful saddle justice! There is no slippery polished leather surface on this saddle. The leather has a matte finish and everything just molds together beautifully with the gel fill, just soft buttery, beautiful leather with a two- tone color allowing lots of options to match bridle, girth etc. The leather is extremely soft, like calfskin gloves. The wider and deeper gel filled seat also allowed for a better fit of my little older, wider bum. You really have to sit on this saddle to feel the comfort of the gel seat and panels. I searched for many years and think that the buttery leather and finish of the saddle will lend itself well for equitation and flat work also. Nice long panels for my taller self, offers me the same comfort and security of my dressage saddle. Cannot wait to compete in my new saddle this year and win another championship. This reasonably priced saddle offers good bang for your buck and it should outlast both my horse and I. Hope you get to try out this saddle and that you will like it too! See you in the show ring!
