Snowy River Australian Saddle

Truly handsome, timeless & totally functional… that’s the Snowy River Saddle!
Considerable time & precision are taken to build each Australian saddle with a special low-maintenance sheepskin panel that distributes the rider’s weight evenly over a larger area on the horse’s back. You’ll find it deep-seated, secure & above all, unsurpassed in comfort.
Not your Typical Australian Saddle
The Snowy River saddle is considered a crossover saddle, which means it has a fleece panel like a Western Saddle combined with the saddle tree and poleys of an Australian saddle.
The saddle horn is securely attached to the steel gullet with the position of attachment angled forward out of your way. This ads to your security and comfort in the saddle, while you are out riding.
For a closer contact feel to your horse, the Snowy River saddle comes with a high grade thick sheepskin panel.
All of our Australian saddles come fully fitted with 2.5″ stirrup leathers, a fleece or felt girth, and stirrups.
With the fleece panel we recommend the Bad Dog Ranch 1/2″ saddle pad.
Send us your wither and back tracings so we can custom fit your saddle to your horse. Also check out our YouTube channel for more details on how to do a wither tracing!

I’ve ridden horses for 45+ yrs. and this saddle has to be the most comfortable I’ve ever ridden in. I thought my riding days were going to be far and few between as my hips and knees would just scream after even a short ride. So I did some research on the Aussie saddles, contacted Amber and ended up with the Snowy River Legend saddle… the best money I’ve ever spent. So if your getting into your senior years like me and have knee and/or hip issues or just plain achy muscles and think your riding days are coming to end, try an Aussie saddle before throwing in the towel. I can’t say enough good things about this saddle and the excellent customer service Amber provided.

Absolutely love this saddle. Been looking for a good saddle for two years. and contacted Amber. She directed me to do a back tracing for correct sizing and I ended up with the snowy river. Excellent saddle and excellent customer service. My advice is to not get the cheap knock offs that have become so popular. Consult this store and get the real deal.
