Eques One

The distinctive feature on One is the vertically elevated knee pad. A knee pad which takes thigh support to the next level. Compared to other knee pads the higher position ensures support higher up the length of the thigh. In addition the shape ensures that the knee cap is not obstructed.

Another unique feature of One is the replacement of traditional double-layer skirts over the stirrup bar with a single layer of leather integrating with the seat and saddle flap. Hence the name “One” (One layer). This design gives the feel of a narrower waist in the saddle, improving contact with the horse, increasing stability, and enabling the rider to drop their leg more naturally around the horse. A discreet opening over the stirrup bar allows for external positioning of the stirrup leathers. The skirt is shaped gracefully over the knee pad to complement its design.

With these new, innovative features, it is clearly felt that the saddle assists a correct and balanced position, allowing the rider to use the seat properly. Most importantly, you experience an incredibly close contact with the horse – a feeling that’s difficult to put into words. It must be experienced.

One is built on the B-tree. A saddle tree that combines the best of several worlds: the forward pointing position of the gullet which provides freedom of movement for the shoulders of the horse; the wide channel which provides freedom of movement for the muscles surrounding the spinal column of the horse; and finally, the angle of the bars which provides a remarkably close contact to the horse.

The close contact provided by this saddle is ideal in situations where you need to show the horse from its best side such as competitions or breeding shows.

In summary, the One saddle is designed for horses with well-developed musculature in the back, including competition horses. However, it is equally suited for riders who, in everyday training, prefer a close contact with the horse.
