17 Dale Chavez Tooled Equitation Western Saddle. Want to dabble in a few different arenas? This fancy Dale Chavez is ready to be your multi-event team mate, and look stunning while doing it.
This one is a 17.5", but is padded to 17", and boy is all that extra padding comfortable! On the great DC Vancore tree, fitting like QH bars, measuring 6.75, with a wider fork angle, fitting low and wide with some rock to the bars. 29 skirt with an equitation cut, giving your leg a great, close contact feel. Fenders are super adjustable, making this one family friendly!
This has Chavez's loop buckle adjustment rather than Blevin slides, which make them easy to adjust, secure, and less bulky. This one is sure pretty, nearly fully tooled in a mix of classic basketweave stamping and floral tooling, with roughed out jockeys for a bit of extra grip. Finished off with a classic berry style silver concho.
The leather is finished in a pecan/light oil finish that will look good on many different colored horses! This one is considered Dale Chavez's Western Dressage/All Purpose Reining saddle, built to support equitation and comfort. This is an older Chavez, with far nicer leather quality than some of the newer ones (in our opinion) and has been incredibly well cared for.
Leather is incredibly soft, showing only typical/minor signs of use and wear. This saddle is lighter weight than you'd assume, which is a pleasant surprise!
Grab this one now, or show against it later! Seat: 16", padded to 15.5". Tree/Gullet: QH Bars, 6.75.
