All Purpose Saddles, Black Country

Black Country Saddlery is, in our opinion, one of the finest saddlery companies today.  The quality of their saddles is superb, their customer service is excellent, and they are just plain nice folks! They have listened and responded to customer feedback which has led to some very useful innovations in their saddles. The flocking in the panels is a soft, resilient Jacobs wool which allows the saddles to break in quickly to the horse’s back. And helps to wick sweat and “breathes” to keep the horse’s back cool. They have many different options and leathers available on their saddles, most at no extra charge. Turn around time is remarkably short - usually under 4 weeks.

Options include:

wither gussets , upswept panels , the drop panel, the K panel, gusseted panel, and tree widths done to template.

Trumbull Mountain EquinoxII- We are proud to present our very own saddle! One of our biggest fitting challenges has been the wide horse. Many of our customers are endurance riders and pleasure riders who want a comfortable, secure saddle that doesn’t roll around on a ‘plus sized’ horses! We designed this saddle with the Arabians, Morgans, Draft Breeds, Warmbloods, Fjords, and Quarter Horses in mind. Everyone in our shop had a hand in the design of this saddle. Nancy, our endurance specialist, owns Arabs. Edie rides a pretty round Morgan Horse. Kitt has a giant Hanoverian mare who really objects to having her shoulders pinched. We put our heads together with the help of  Black Country and we created a saddle that we are very happy with. To start with, the Panels are made of Serge. This is a woven fabric that is soft and breathes. It allows a much quicker break in, and dissipates heat much better than leather. The panels are stuffed with a low profile and a really wide gullet to allow the saddle to ‘sit down’ rather then perch up in the air. This saddle offers both a wide fit for the horse as well as a narrow twist for the rider because of a specially designed panel with a narrow ‘waist’. The girth billets come from the front and rear corners of the saddle to keep it from rocking. The flap is a ‘mono flap’ design, because we didn’t think we needed any more thickness under the leg. The thigh block offers security without pressure on the rider’s knee. To top it off, the leather is a soft Schrump leather which is grippy, secure, and durable. We have added lots of D-Rings so you can bring your lunch, your sponge or what have you.

The Trumbull Mtn. Equinox II -Has had the stirrup bar moved back 1/2" to improve the rider's balance and has had an extra layer of foam added to the seat for additional cushioning. It is available in black or havana brown, in sizes 16.5" - 18" with medium, wide or extra wide tree. Other sizes available by special order.

BLACK COUNTRY WEXFORD

This is the “armchair” of all-purpose saddles.  The Wexford’s wide, deep seat makes it great for flat work, and the knee and calf blocks offer security and correct position over fences.  It offers the balance, confidence and comfort you’ll need, whether you’re eventing, following the hunt field, or just enjoying the trails.  We had Black Country add dee rings on the right and a tab on the tree point so a point billet can be added.  Generously broad, wool-flocked, gusseted panels and a wide channel offer a good fit for even the widest backs.   We’re stocking the Wexford in Havana brown printed Vintage leather, 17” – 18” seats, medium and wide trees.  Other sizes and options available by special order.
