Used Stubben Saddles

Only the Best Will Do

The Stubben saddle is debatably one of the finest saddles used in the English discipline. At this point the Stubben saddle, fashioned from the finest full grain German cowhide, is made in Stans Switzerland providing hunter jumper, Dressage, and all-purpose saddles.

The Stubben has its signature color piping sewn between the seat and skirt and as noted is made of leather which satisfies even the pickiest purist of a judge at the shows. And even if you’ve had trouble with fit in the past the Stubben has six different seat depths, several tree widths and sizes so you can fit practically any horse and rider.

Why You Should Consider a Used Stubben Saddle

These features can be said of several different brands of saddle on the market. But there is a reason you find riders holding on to their used Stubben saddles for thirty years of more – and it’s not just because they hold up so well (and they do) and still look great after all that time. What makes this saddle so popular isn’t visible to the eye.

The difference is the design and durability of its spring tree. Because of the unique materials used and a superior design, the seat is fully flexible and remains so for a lifetime of use. And now with the Biomex feature, technology developed by a prominent orthopedic hospital in Switzerland, the Stubben is even more comfortable.

Basically, the Biomex system is two kidney shaped pads positioned at the very point where your body makes the most contact with the saddle.  These specially designed pads reduce stress on the back, allowing riders to ride longer and with less pain.  And with more comfort you have better posture.

As important as that is however, maybe an even better reason to choose a Stubben is how this saddle fits your horse. This is the most comfortable saddle for your horse too. And you don’t have to take anyone’s word for it. Try a Stubben for yourself and you will see your horses hold themselves differently. They are more focused.

Wouldn’t you rather buy a saddle you could love for a lifetime than a saddle you were always wishing you could replace? There are a lot of great buys on used Stubben saddles out there. Find a great bargain and a saddle you’ll love to own.

Joyce F,

Funny story about English saddles. When visiting New Zealand, I was traveling with two close friends who I knew loved their horses, so I in my brilliance set up an excursion to ride for the afternoon. Little did I anticipate that New Zealand does not even offer Western saddles - my two friends were as lost as I was and perhaps even more so with the English saddle. You see my body has only one claim to fame - balance.

The English saddle mandates strong core muscles.
