Don't pass up this terrific Fallis Balanced Ride Saddle! We know these are very rare used, and it's so hard to find the originals still in great working condition. One of the things that made Fallis famous (and was ahead of their time) is the design of the stirrups. They are a "v" style sling that places the riders leg a little different.

The stirrups are designed to hang slightly father forward than your average stirrup; this increases the rider's stability and balance. You can fully adjust the location from front to back, as well as the length with the additional adjustments at the top of the fender. The seat is designed to be nearly flat, placing the rider into the groove of the horse's true center of gravity.

The saddle's rigging is designed to reduce bulk from under the rider's legs, allowing more contact and control. The saddle does include a matching flank cinch.

Onderful saddle to work with and easy to fit a variety of horses. The tree is rock solid, and we see nothing that warrants any repairs or any reason why this saddle should not continue to be used in-spite of the age. One note about the bottom of the saddle.

"Back in the day" better saddles like this were built with a real pelt of sheep's wool on the bottom. We didn't use saddle pads back then, we has something more like a cloth or woven rug that was used to keep the bottom of the saddle clean- and that was it's only purpose. The wool panel did the job of cushioning the horse from the impact of the tree and rider. Fast forward 20-30-40 years and saddle pads have become very technical these days. A simple cheaper saddle pad NOW is so much better than what we had.

So please don't be discouraged by the wool starting to shed off the base of this saddle. If you are using modern saddle pads, that has no bearing on the use of the saddle. We understand that you can see the "fuzzy" part of the wool shedding out, but the leather backing has no damage and is not in any way rotting out.
