Same great Pessoa balance for the rider and same great fit on the ponies as our original Rodrigo Pony saddle, with calfskin covered flaps that have a broken in feel from the very first ride. A saddle with the serious pony competitor in mind!

BayFlex is a type of memory-flex polyurethane which has been specifically designed for padding purposes by BAYER.  It is an extremely versatile material that can adjust itself to different pressures and maintain its protection without losing its shape.  It does not bottom out, heat up or cause sore spots on the horse's back.  Panels molded of BayFlex are made in the Pessoa factory under watchful eyes.

 About the Xchange system

The rider can modify the width of the tree using any of our interchangeable gullet plates with only a screwdriver.  It is really that simple.  This system does not change the integrity or look of the saddle.  A saddle with a wide gullet plate fits and looks exactly like a standard tree with the same size gullet.  The strength is the same, the feel is the same and, like all Pessoa trees, the warranty is the same 100 years. The tree can perfectly adapt itself to the withers and back of any horse. 

The tree size can be changed from Narrow up to Extra-wide.

Natural finished leathers like those in Pessoa saddles require special care. Pessoa's soap and oil provide natural finished leathers with the best care possible. All new Pessoa saddles must be thoroughly oiled before initial ride.
