why choose a Sue Carson Saddle?

From International Competitor to riding club horse owner, through her extensive experience, Sue has encountered every shape, size and level of horse and rider and has the right saddle to match. She says "A good saddle is a vital factor in maximising comfort and enhancing performance of horse and rider partnerships. My saddles have been designed by riders for riders".

The exclusive Sue Carson collection of balanced saddles has been designed to mimic the contours of the horses' back and offer support without restricting the rider.

craftsmanship customised to your individual needs

Sue Carson's saddles are handcrafted in Great Britain using only top quality materials. From sprung wooden trees with flat, wide bearing surfaces to variable Velcro knee blocks and thigh rolls or fixed blocks, we offer you full choice of design and finish to maximise comfort, performance and keep you looking stylish.

Horses come in all shapes and sizes, requiring different trees and saddle designs; but so too do riders! While options are readily available to fit the horse, most manufacturers' saddles are built with only one seat, flap and fixed block type. The chance of this fitting both horse and rider is slim and it's usually the rider who has to compensate and compromise their ride.

Sue Carson's saddles provide a range of seat, block and flap designs that are all interchangeable across saddles to provide the highest degree of fit for horse and rider, balancing comfort with performance and letting you put your personality into the saddle.
