An English saddle is a bit different from Western saddles, so it’s important to know the proper way to measure and fit one. This guide will provide you with the information you need to measure an English saddle for an optimal riding position for comfort and effectiveness.
A good saddle pad can make a world of difference in your horse’s comfort while working under saddle. Gone are the days of simple cotton pads, now there are so many options to consider for your horse and saddle’s specific needs.

Saddle pads for dressage are larger than close contact and all-purpose pads because the saddle itself is larger.
A WickDry lining and suede outer finish make this a saddle pad that not only allows for better airflow to your horse’s back, but also ensures your saddle stays in place. The contour design along the spine keeps pressure off the withers. All at a price, you can’t beat.

Dressage tack is traditionally black and bridles normally feature crank nosebands and flashes. When you reach the upper levels sometimes a double bridle is recommended for advanced horses and movements. But for everyday schooling and lower-level showing, a simple snaffle bridle is all you will need. Bridles come in a variety of styles, both plain and with bling to suit your taste.
This bridle is perfect for dressage enthusiasts just starting out. Classic black leather with a padded noseband and monocrown to help alleviate pressure points along the horse’s poll. Simple silver buckles along with a crank/flash noseband complete this timeless bridle.
A specially designed ergonomic bridle, perfect for more sensitive horses. Anatomically designed to avoid pressure around the horse’s poll, mouth, and ears. A wide crownpiece distributes pressure evenly across the poll, and cutback cheekpieces avoid the main facial nerve, all resulting in a happier and more willing to perform horse.
The Passier Starlight Snaffle Bridle offers a shiny patent leather noseband that is softly lined and leaves room for cheekbone and optic nerve of the horse. Ergonomically poll to relieve pressure, the compassionate design strives for equine comfort, comes complete with stunning wave style crystal browband.
Another great question we get all the time is “How do I put my bridle together? I just cleaned it and have NO idea how to put it back together!”
With so many types of bridles on the market nowadays, it can be even more confusing than ever... but who better to give you a tutorial than someone who has spent countless days pulling bridles apart and then putting them back together again.
