THE CASHEL SOFTSADDLE - Click here for the FAQs

An innovative saddle alternative with amazing comfort for horse and rider. Proudly made by Cashel Company USA and available in New Zealand exclusively from HorseTackNZ.

This saddle is constructed with unique closed-cell foam originally designed for the aerospace industry. Layers of this foam and wetsuit-quality neoprene are glued over sculpted (front and back) closed-cell foam wedges - to provide close contact without painful pressure points on your body or your horse’s.

 
In closed-cell foam, most of the cells are not broken so they resemble inflated soccer balls piled together in a compact configuration.

Due to the strength and density of closed-cell foam, air passes between the cells with difficulty, providing cushioning. It won’t collapse; won’t rot; or absorb moisture, bacteria and odours.

Weighing less than 3kgs, the SoftSaddle is wonderful for hacking out, endurance training, trail riding, improving balance and natural seat position. 

No other pads needed. Clean by hosing off. 

Sold complete with removable Western Oxbows, Nylon Latigo and Off-Billet Straps.
