PDS Jaguar Carl Hester Dressage Saddle – Black

The PDS Jaguar Carl Hester Dressage Saddle represents the perfect combination of elite performance, technical innovation, and refined craftsmanship. Developed in collaboration with Olympic gold medallist Carl Hester, this premium dressage saddle is designed for riders seeking exceptional balance, close contact, and superior comfort for their horse.

Engineered to accommodate modern sport horse conformations, the Carl Hester model disperses rider weight effectively, reducing pressure points and enhancing comfort for horses with curvier backs, higher croups, or sensitivity through the lumbar region. This makes it particularly well suited to horses that require thoughtful weight distribution and freedom of movement.

Built on a carefully designed tree with shorter points, the saddle accommodates horses with prominent shoulders or low, broad withers. The upswept panel configuration minimises lumbar contact, allowing greater flexibility through the back — ideal for horses with short backs, higher croups, or those that benefit from reduced pressure in the lumbar area.

The independent wool-flocked full panel allows maximum adjustability, making it easier to fine-tune the fit and maintain optimal comfort as your horse develops. This design supports precise saddle fitting while delivering excellent weight distribution across the horse’s back. Combined with the tri-billet girthing system incorporating a point billet, the saddle offers improved stability and balance for both horse and rider.

Crafted from premium materials and finished in classic black, the PDS Jaguar Carl Hester Dressage Saddle delivers elegance, performance, and technical excellence for serious dressage riders.
