Saddle 553 is a nostalgic ride. Rounded skirts and a bicycle seat remind you of a new version of your grandfather's favorite saddle. It comes with stirrup leathers that hang comfortably and a padded seat filled with high tech material that gives protection without feeling way off the horse. An arena roping saddle, that happens to be a great trail saddle. Choose smooth or rough side out on the jockeys, fenders and lower skirts. Shown star conchos with rear dees, you can have six dees and six strings if you like! (And front breast collar dees.) Choose a rope strap on the pommel if you like. Cultured Cowboy can offer either a heavy synthetic, or natural sheepskin bottom fleece option. It really makes the saddle feel luxurious. Shown in a light oil finish on Basket tooling, choose your color of leather, and of seat. Top grain padded seats (shown) are available as well as suede. Give us your true inseam measurements and we can have the saddle stirrup lengths fitted for you. This is especially handy for youth, ladies, or tall cowboys! Half sizes in seats are available upon request. Your choice of QH or Full QH bars. The leather is quality Argentine vegetable tan. The tree is really a roping tree; go ahead and catch your cow! Comes standard with nylon tie straps so your leg is close to the horse. Leather tie straps are available.
