  • Re: Buying stirrup leathers

    Thanks for the advice. The tack shops I normally go to have very little selection when it comes to leathers. And they tend to be the $100 variety. I've been looking online (especially eBay) for the best price/quality combo - which is why I was asking about matching the color; it's hard to tell...

  • Buying stirrup leathers

    Does it matter if I buy a brand of stirrup leathers that isn't the same brand of saddle? If I buy a different brand, how do I make sure they match the shade of the saddle? I have a Crosby close contact saddle and would like to replace the stirrup leathers. It's been difficult for me to find Crosby...

  • Cleaning a saddle

    I clean and condition my saddle regularly with Lexol, but it feels dry. I've oiled it once and my instructor said that you only need to do that once a year. The driest spot seems to be where the stirrup leathers touch the saddle. Should I use saddle soap?

  • Does my saddle need to be repaired?

    I have a used Crosby saddle that has a crack on the side of the seat. When I bought it two years ago, I don't remember it having a crack. It's jagged (so it's not a cut) and measures about 2-3 inches. Does it need to get repaired? And if so, how do I find a place to do that? And how much...

  • English saddle repair

    I have a wonderful Crosby Mark IV close contact saddle I bought used about 3 years ago. I love it and it fits my horse very well. Unfortunately, it has developed cracks along the seams of the seat. I took it to my local tack shop and they told me to continue to clean it and oil on a regular basis so...

  • Bang for my Buck - Recommended All-purpose Saddles?

    I'm a member of the "Broke Horse Owner" club, and I'm in the market for a new english saddle. The one I have now is just... eh. Uncomfortable for me, and it takes about three pads to make it comfortable for my horse. He has medium-high withers but a fairly broad back, and it is SO HARD...
