Orthoflex is revolutionizing the way saddle are built. Unhappy with the restrictive and sometimes painful rigid treed saddles that we have grown up with, the idea behind orthoflex saddles was born. While maintaining the rigid tree for the riders comfort, orthoflex saddles have isolated the tree from the horses back by using concealed flexible panels. These flexible panel allow the horse complete freedom of movement while allowing the rider the support they need.
With the flexible panels orthoflex saddles are ideal for hard to fit horses. Whether your horse is high withered, short backed, flat backed or "mutton withered?, there is a model for you. Breed presents no problem for orthoflex saddles, from Arabian to draft conformation, from paso fino to mules, the concealed orthoflex tree provides you with the perfect fit.
