Australian Saddles

Australian Saddles

An Australian saddle is a type of horse saddle designed for comfort and security, particularly during long rides or for activities such as stock work, endurance riding, and trail riding. It combines features of both the Western and English saddles but has some distinct characteristics that make it unique. Overall, the Australian saddle is favored by many riders who need a secure and comfortable saddle for long hours of riding, particularly in rough or varied terrain.

Two of the most unique characteristics of Australian saddles are:

Deep Seat: The seat of an Australian saddle is usually deeper than that of an English saddle, providing greater security for the rider. The deep seat helps to keep the rider stable, especially during fast movements or when riding over rough terrain.

Poleys (Knee Pads): One of the most distinctive features of the Australian saddle is the presence of large knee pads, known as poleys, which are positioned on the front of the saddle. These poleys help to prevent the rider from being thrown forward in the saddle, providing additional security.
