Deauville Leather Monoflap Cross Country Saddle

Combining the technical performance required by the modern cross-country rider with timeless style, the Deauville Leather Monoflap Cross Country Saddle is specifically designed for cross country training and competition.

The copolymer tree is highly durable and boasts incredible stress-resistant properties which allow the tree to flex so minutely that it prevents the tree from cracking under stress. Engineered to allow your horse to move freely and without restriction, the synthetic fibre wool flocked panels offer comfort, support, and distribute pressure evenly.

Unique, padded knee and thigh rolls have been strategically placed to provide security and aid correct rider leg positioning. A medium depth seat has been incorporated to support rider position and aid in the natural rider action over fences.

A leather skirt covers stainless steel safety flick stirrup bars, offering a safe and simple way to attach and remove your stirrup leathers. Stirrup leather keepers sit at the back of the saddle flap for a tidy finish and front D rings have been added for the attachment of training aids and breastplates or martingales.

The popular monoflap design offers a close feel with the horse and is favoured by top international event riders across the globe. Crafted in soft and supple German aniline leather this monoflap cross country saddle has been engineered for improved connection and communication with the horse.

Using your saddle for the first time:

Premier Equine have carried out all necessary treatment processes before delivering your saddle, so you can use it as soon as you receive it. However, for optimum softness and protections, we advise you to apply a good quality leather conditioning balsam and leave for 24 hours to allow for full absorption, out of direct sunlight. Buff with a soft cloth to remove any excess. 

Beware of the risk of staining white clothes, especially during the first few uses.

Store in a dry place away from direct sunlight or heat. Regularly clean your saddle and apply a good quality conditioning balsam to preserve the suppleness and colour of the leather. 

Store on a saddle hook/saddle stand that provides even pressure. 

Day-to-Day care:

1. Remove any dirt and debris from the surface & girth straps by wiping down your saddle with a damp, soft cloth after every use.
2. Wipe over with a dry, soft cloth to remove any excess moisture. 
3. Allow the saddle to dry naturally in a well-ventilated area out of direct sunlight and heat. 
4. Once dry, apply a high-quality leather balsam. Take care not to over-saturate the leather and in particular; the girth straps*.
5. Allow the saddle to dry naturally in a well ventilated area out of direct sunlight and heat. 
6. Once dry, apply your saddle cover for protection. 

If your saddle has come into contact with water, allow it to dry naturally out of direct sunlight or heat. Once dry, apply a high-quality leather balsam and store your saddle in a dry place. 

• Do not place dirty accessories over the top of the saddle.
• Do not clean the saddle with products containing solvent or glycerine soap as these substances will damage the integrity of the saddle.
• Do not treat/grease a saddle that has not been cleaned first as this poses the risk of letting dirt penetrate the leather, damaging it.
• Please note: During the summer months, you may need to increase the frequency in which you treat your leather saddle as the sun and higher temperatures can dehydrate the leather.
• *Warning: over-saturation of the leather & leather girth straps can cause over-absorption which can deteriorate the leather. Do not over-saturate your saddle and girth straps. 

For optimum performance and longevity: apply a high-quality leather conditioning balsam at least twice a month to maintain the suppleness of the leather.
