Suede Exercise Saddle Full Tree by Zilco

The Suede Exercise Saddle Full Tree by Zilco is constructed from exceptionally strong polyurethane layered over a knitted polyester base—materials chosen for high tear-resistance and abrasion durability. Its suede-like outer finish adds grip for the rider, enhancing security in fast or variable riding conditions. Features include closed stirrup bars for safety, 22 mm (7/8″) chrome leather billet straps, gusseted flock-filled panels for shock absorption and a weight of approximately 3.15 kg, making it light enough for intensive use.

Usage

Target Species: Horses (for riders exercising or galloping)

Application: Used in exercise gallops, race training, hack outs, or any situation where a strong, secure saddle with good rider grip is required.

Method:

• Place the saddle on a clean, dry saddlecloth and carefully position it on the horse’s back, ensuring the tree points sit correctly and the panel sits evenly.

• Use the closed stirrup bars and attach stirrup irons of appropriate length for the rider.

• Fasten the girth securely via the 22 mm chrome leather billet straps, ensuring the saddle is balanced and stable.

• After use, remove the saddle, wipe down the underside to remove sweat and debris, allow it to air dry, and store it in a cool, dry location.

Frequency:

• Suitable for daily use in training, exercise, or galloping sessions.

• Inspect regularly for wear in billet straps, stitching, and material integrity; maintain as part of equipment routine.
