Barefoot Barrydale Saddle

The anatomically shaped, duo colored, soft Nubuck leather knee rolls, incorporated in the detachable seat of this Barefoot Saddle, frames the rider to allow for a deep and very secure seat whether out hacking or in the arena. The Barefoot Barrydale is particularly popular with Endurance Riders - strenuous up and down - no problem with this saddle. Your legs are precisely positioned, the saddle stays secure, the horse's back pressure free - a must especially on long distance rides.

The stirrup bar can be freely positioned between saddle & seat to suit your preferred seat position & your size.

Flexible, V-Shaped girthing system. The saddle is also suitable for difficult girthing positions. It lies a little further forward than conventional saddles, therefore positions the rider directly above the horse's center of gravity. Your horse will find it easier to balance your weight.

With this saddle you will feel your horse's muscles work and the movement of its back, the basic requirements for more advanced riding.

9D-Rings to secure saddle pad or luggage. As with all Barefoots, the pommel insert (medium size) can be exchanged.

Barefoot VPS System provides channel for spinal clearance

Saddle Trial Program
You can try the saddle for one week (7 days) after receiving the saddle to decide if it’s a good fit for you and your horse. Keep it clean, keep the tags. Ride in a controlled area, do not go on a trail ride. If you mark it up, scratch it, or damage it, you cannot return it. You cannot return a used saddle pad or girth/cinch. Use your own saddle pad to try the saddle if possible. If after one week you decide to return the saddle, you will be charged a $100 restocking fee and you pay to ship the saddle back to us. If you would like to try a saddle for a week, Message us sales@barefootsaddlesusa.com

All Barefoot brand treeless saddles come with a saddle system called Vertebrae Protection System (VPS), which is a patented panel system designed to protect the spine of the horse.

The Barefoot Treeless saddles come with a medium size fiberglass insert. You can purchase additional narrow, wide, extra wide, or soft pommel inserts as needed for your horse's conformation. Click here for more information on the Barefoot Pommel Inserts, and a printable version of the pommel sizing template.

All Barefoot Treeless saddles are manufactured in Germany, and restocked monthly.
