17.5 inch Fairfax Classic Monoflap Dressage Black Adjustable

Saddles are permitted on a 5-day USA mainland trial. Simply add the saddle to your basket and proceed to check out. The trial starts on the day you receive the saddle.

Full payment for the saddle is taken at the point of checkout. If the saddle fits, great! No further action is required.

Is your fitter not coming until next week? No problem!

Select your estimated delivery date at checkout. Please note we recommend having the saddle delivered 2 working days before your saddle fitting appointment in case of any unexpected delays with the courier.

Sadly, we cannot offer a trial outside of Mainland USA. However, most of our international clients still find it cheaper to import a quality saddle from The Saddle Bank UK than to source one in their own country.

*6 month soundness warranty is provided on all second hand saddles. Saddles are sold sound, and we expect a saddle with an average amount of use to have many years of use. Warranty is only valid on saddles which have been well cared for, and maintained by the purchaser, and does not include accidental damage, fire, or theft. Any alterations made by a saddle fitter or owner will deem the warranty invalid as the person who has made such changes is responsible for the safety of the saddle.
**Guaranteed buy back price is offered on all saddles within 6 months of the original purchase date. The price offered is 40% less the purchase price of second hand saddles, and 50% less the purchase price of new saddles. The guaranteed buy back price is also condition dependent, and the saddle must be in a comparable condition to guarantee the price. The Guaranteed buy back price is only available to USA mainland clients.
