GFS Premier Jump Flat Seat S802
Saddle ID: GFSS802
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.

This saddle typically works on horses with a standard back profile and standard wither.
It features movable girth straps that can be moved to the balance or point ring if required, which can help achieve a better fit.
This saddle has wool-flocked panels, so your fitter can make minor adjustments to the flocking to get the best fit for your horse.
It also features an adjustable gullet tree, so the width can easily be altered by swapping out the gullet bars.

These leathers are natural, so colour blemishes, marks and scars are part of the natural beauty of the leather and are not a fault.
For this reason, care of the leather and consideration in use is crucial to the performance of your GFS saddle.
The life of your saddle is dependent upon maintaining the natural oils and greases in the leather.
We only recommend, using ‘natural‘ products on your GFS saddle and those specially designed for use with ‘equestrian leathers‘, not those associated with the care and or cleaning of ‘car seats and or leathers designed for home use.
You MUST NOT use a ‘spray cleaner‘ when cleaning.
CLEANING
To clean we recommend wiping with a ‘damp cloth/sponge‘ to remove dirt and debris that may otherwise, scratch the surface of the leather, and then clean with a ‘glycerine saddle soap.
Cleaning should take place, once a week (dependent upon use) or after use in an environment where the riding surface is disturbed and rises onto your saddle.
To maintain the natural suppleness of the leather, we recommend the following:
PRIOR TO FIRST USE
You MUST, dress your saddle with NAF Shere Luxe ‘Leather Balsam‘ as this rich wax– based Balsam will enrich the leather of your new saddle prior to use.
An alternative reputable brand is acceptable.
You should liberally dress and leave overnight, to ensure maximum penetration into the leather, which will both seal in moisture and protect your saddle.
STIRRUP LEATHERS
You MUST NOT, use either ‘synthetic‘ stirrup leathers or those with a nylon face, they will act as an abrasive to the surface of the leather.
We also recommend that a good quality leather girth be used, rather than one made from any kind of fabric or synthetic material.
ONGOING CARE
After cleaning, weekly, you should replenish and rejuvenate the moisture content of the leather.
Lightly dress the surface with the Balsam, to maintain moisture content and protection.
ESPECIALLY take EXTRA care in high-wear areas, such as:
Areas that are in contact with girth buckles and Billet straps.
Friction rub areas, such as where the stirrup leathers rub on the Flap.
If your saddle leathers are treated in this way, you should over time, achieve the traditional beauty of an age-worked saddle, and expect many years of excellent service.
CLOTHING & COLOUR LOSS
It is normal, especially if the surface of the leather is ‘damp‘, to experience some colour loss onto your breeches.
For this reason, we recommend that appropriate clothing is selected, especially when the saddle is new, and has received treatment with a leather care product.
Once the saddle has been used once or twice, most of this colour loss should disappear, unless the saddle surface has been made ‘damp‘ after cleaning.
