The very popular General Purpose Saddle made of Nubuck Leather, very pliable and capable of adapting to the shape of the horse's back. The Barefoot 'Cheyenne' is particular popular for riders who wish to sit freely as saddle adapts to the shape of the horse whilst allowing the rider's legs to 'swing freely with the horses movement without being held in position by knee rolls.
BAREFOOT SADDLE SYSTEM : Anatomically shaped to the horse's back without rigid tree and flexible in all directions. Barefoot Saddles adjust to any shaped horse, leaving withers & spine free, distributing the riders weight to an optimum without causing pressure points.
- sturdy & easy care due to a dirt repellent treatment applied to the leather
- the Barefoot Cheyenne has a light, dense fleece underside with leather edging
- 6 D-Rings to attach saddle pad, saddle bags or breastplates
- exchangeable / removable fibreglass pommel insert (saddles come as standard with a medium sized insert). Different width inserts are available for purchase separately
- flexible in all 3 dimensions (X,Y,Z)
- the Barefoot Cheyenne Treeless Saddle has a excellent wither clearance
- with VPS - System (Vertebrae Protection System) - absorbs pressure even better and ensures spinal clearance
- high cantle made of semi-elastic material which is anatomically shaped to the horse & rider and therefore enhances the horse's freedom of movement. It encourages engagement of the hindquarters and vertical flexion of the back
- deep, softly cushioned and very secure seat
- the Barefoot 'Cheyenne' allows the rider to sit in close contact, freely & comfortable at the horse's center of gravity

A = length of saddle
B = length of seat
C = length of skirt / saddle flap
Barefoot saddles are hand made. This makes every saddle unique. The measurements are therefore just reference points and can vary slightly.
Size 0 : recommended for clothes sizes:
Ladies 4-6/8
A = approx. 48 cm B + approx. 32cm C = approx. 45cm
Size 1: recommended for clothes sizes :
Ladies 10-12 Gents 34-38
A = approx. 52 cm B = approx. 36 cm C = approx 50cm
Size 2 : recommended for clothes size :
Ladies 14-18 Gents : 40-44
A = approx. 58 cm B = approx. 40 cm C = approx. 51cm
Please note: The lenght of the saddle (A) is the overall length. As there is no pressure at all in the rear part, the horse can move freely. Even if the saddle looks a little too long on your horse, choose the size according to your measurements. It is very important that the saddle fits the rider well, so he has enough space between thighs and pommel and does not sit on the pommel or cantle, which would limit the saddles adaptability. The horse's back is free of any pressure at the rear - the Barefoot can even be lifted slightly at the cantle with a rider on board.
