Barefoot Lexington Treeless Dressage Saddles

Exclusive and innovative saddle in the classical Dressage design. This saddle lets the rider feel every movement of the horse's back and his muscles - thus creating a sound foundation for subtle riding. The stirrup attachment can be positioned as needed - therefore the saddle can easily be adjusted to your personal needs and measurements. The 'Lexington' is equipped with a wedge-shaped VPS padding, raising the seat in the rear and thus enabling a straight position for the rider, which is even further supported by the distinct knee-roll.

The rigging is flexible and runs in a V-form, allowing the saddle to be girthed straight even when the girthing area is difficult. Compared to standard Dressage saddles, the 'Lexington' is placed further to the front, positioning the rider directly above the horse's centere of gravity. The horse can more easily balance the rider's weight.

Thanks to the long and slightly wider flap with formed knee-rolls, the rider's leg is securely positioned in a dressage seat. Underneath this support, additional knee-rolls - which are included in two different sizes - can be placed as desired thank to Velcro fastening. Furthermore, the knee-roll support is equipped with AirPumpSystem - air can circulate allowing the knee-roll to conform to the rider's leg even more softly.

This saddle ensures proper support even when hacking-out; therefore it comes with 6 D-Rings to attach saddle blanket and luggage. As with all Barefoot® saddles, the Fiberglas-inlay in the front pommel (size medium) can be exchanged.

Flexible V-Rigging - ideal for difficult girthing area

Thanks to the long and slightly wider flap with formed knee-rolls, the rider's leg is securely positioned in a dressage seat. Underneath this support, additional knee rolls - which are included in two different sizes - can be placed as desired thanks to Velcro fastening. Furthermore, as you ride and break in the saddle, the knee roll will conform to the rider's leg.

The Lexington is also available in a model with a shorter flap for riders with shorter legs. Click here.

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.
