It has been a while since we have had really nice endurance saddles or flex panel saddles in. We are excited to offer such a cool saddle! When Len Brown sold OrthoFlex, it was first purchased by a German Saddler, who took the brand on as American Flex, sometimes known as America-Flex, building the same theory into each saddle, but now offered with the exceptional German leather and craftsmanship we have come used to from German saddlers. Now, OrthoFlex and American Flex are built by Hill View Farms, so these ones are hard to come by.
This is one of the most popular models from all three builders, the classic Dressage, which integrates the balance and feel of a dressage saddle and the flex panels to offer great fit options for your horse. This one is a bit older, doesn’t appear to have much for use, but has clearly been in storage for some time. This one measures a 18.5″, but with the deep and padded seat, will fit a bit smaller. It offers a velcro patch to have thigh blocks, currently with a long/moderate block on, English billeted that is designed almost like a mono flap, as there are through and under the flap. Designed for English style leathers. Booties are in very good condition, panels are solid, and a very short length at just 24″. Overall, despite being an older saddle, this one is in excellent condition. You don’t see quality flex-panel saddles priced like this very often!
