SOLD! Collegiate Marathon Trail
|
Isn't this a cool looking saddle? All purpose in it's design, but the build is all trail. Nice, deep SUPER padded seat is so comfortable to sit in. Hasn't had a whole lot of miles, this saddle is practically new. I was able to get in touch with Collegiate, and got a bit of information from them; while they weren't able to track the serial number for this particular saddle, they were able to tell me these saddles were made circa 2000, and with a fiberglass tree for strength and lightness. Based on that age, I consider this saddle to be in like-new condition. And I'll tell you what, it's worth a sit-in for you English folks!

SOLD! Crates Classic Reiner, 16" Seat, WIDE FQHB
|
Another Beautiful Crates saddle. This one also very well maintained; Classic basketweave tooling, and smooth leather seat, nicely contrasted details. The stirrups show some signs of wear (minor blemishes, and some staining from being wrapped in vetwrap - can likely be removed with time and elbow grease), but otherwise this saddle is in fantastic shape.
Package includes back cinch and matching breastcollar. The "FW" tree is built for your big (and I mean BIG), boxy cow horses. Saddles this wide are hard to find, you'll want to snag this one fast. Asking $1300 |

SOLD! Rahide Slick Seat Ranch Saddle, 16in Seat, FQHB
|
|
|
This saddle doesn't even need a plug. This workhorse is designed for anyone wanting to ride longer than a couple hours. Might not look like much, but that deep, slick seat is SO comfortable and easy to sit in. Longer skirt helps keep your saddlebags clean and sweat-free, and there's lots of strings to tie your gear. Nice wide flair in the front of the gullet is great for a wider-shouldered horse.
Asking $700 |

SOLD! Circle A Roper, Handmade by R.H. Horton, 16in Seat, FQHB
|
|
|
Beautiful handmade roping saddle has seen many miles, but has been well cared for. 16" suede seat has a nice deep pocket; lovey tooling - just enough to give the saddle some character. Leather is in great shape, supple without cracks or scratches; one stirrup appears to be crooked, an easy fix, but this saddle is priced lower because of it. I'll pick up a set of replacement stirrups and the price will change.
Asking $500 |
Crates Lady Reiner, 15.5" seat, QH bars
|
|
Beautiful, VERY well cared for Crates - This dark Mahogany saddle has a ladies twist, which tend to be harder to find - simply put, this saddle will be far more comfortable than it's counterpart built for a man. 15.5" smooth leather seat will fit most riders; the standard QH tree is sized between a Full and Semi QH Bars - so good for most medium-wide horses, but too small for your big, boxy types.
This saddle has always been well maintained, kept clean and dry. Some mild signs of wear, but no scratches, or other damage to speak of. Package includes matching breastcollar, headstall and back cinch. Asking $1500 As a side note, Crates has put an indefinite hold on making new saddles, so best grab one while you can still find one! |
SOLD! Beautiful Custom McCall Lady Pendleton, 15.5" seat, QH bars
Functional Art! Stunning custom McCall Lady Pendleton 15.5” McCall ID# 770-1104. Rough-out body and fenders, brass hardware. This saddle is as comfortable as it is pretty - deep seat has just a bit of padding and grain leather for comfort and movement, and a twist designed for the female rider, makes this saddle one you can sit in all day long.
Built on a Wade tree with modified QH bars -- which means the angle of the bars is the same as QH bars but it is ¼” narrower in the gullet. This saddle has just barely been broken in, bought new in 2004 (for about $3500), owner figures maybe 500 hours of 'old lady' riding have been put on it in that time (read 'leisurely trail riding') ;)
No detail was spared in the build-out of this particular saddle! The list of high-end add-ons is too long to put here; package also includes rear cinch and and brand-spankin' new 30" mohair cinch with brass buckles. The weight is around 34 lbs, so it is a heavier saddle, not for the faint of biceps.
