Finding the right bit is one of the most important steps toward achieving harmony, comfort, and clear communication between you and your horse. While choosing a bit may seem simple, the anatomy of the Icelandic horse’s mouth, the sensitivity of the tongue and bars, and the variety of bit designs make it essential to approach this decision with knowledge and care.

To ensure that the ride is a pleasure for both rider and horse, it is essential that the saddle fits the horse, and is positioned correctly on its back. The saddle should allow the horse free movement and the development of a round and well-balanced topline. The saddle needs to be in the right position on the horse’s back in order to judge its fit, and to allow the horse correct movement.

Our different saddle models have different seat depths. The depth of the seat influences how the rider is supported in the saddle. A deep seat usually supports the rider in a more upright and aligned position, and offers more support, especially in trot and canter.

Our saddles are available in sizes 16,5” (Pro, Elite and Heritage), 17” and 17.5”.These sizes refer to the size of the saddle tree, which is measured from the middle of the cantle to one of the saddle nails on the pommel.

We recommend oiling your new saddle before first use with a high quality leather oil. To avoid rubbing the finish off or scratching the grain of the leather of a new saddle, do not ride in the saddle until it has been properly oiled. The purpose of oiling the saddle before use is for comfort and prevention of wear and tear, rather than to achieve a deeper coloration.
