Australian Endurance Saddle – Light‑Weight Performance for the Toughest Rides

Designed after one of the most successful saddles used in Australia’s famously challenging endurance events—from the remote western Queensland towns of Longreach and Winton—this saddle blends proven race‑track heritage with everyday versatility.

Why It’s Ideal for Endurance (and More)

  • Purpose‑Built Lightness – Because the saddle was created with equine endurance in mind, it is ultra‑lightweight yet robust enough for trail riding and Polo Cross sports.
  • Single‑Flap Construction – Moreover, the single‑flap design, coupled with a close‑contact foam panel, delivers a near‑perfect ride. This gives riders a closer feel of the horse’s movement beneath the thighs.
  • Hip‑Friendly Tree – Furthermore, the tree features a narrow twist that keeps pressure off the rider’s hip joints. Consequently, long rides feel smoother and less fatiguing.
  • Adjustable Gullet – With an adjustable gullet, the saddle is offered in several tree widths. So it can accommodate most horses.
  • Quilted Seat & Shorter Panel – Additionally, a quilted saddle seat adds extra rider comfort, while the shorter panel length makes the saddle especially suitable for short‑backed or multi‑gaited horses.

Standard Features (All Australian Saddles)

  • 2.5 in. colour‑matched stirrup leathers
  • Felt girth for a soft, secure fit
  • Matching stirrups
  • 3 in. deep standard poleys (ideal for this lightweight endurance model)

New Colour Options

  • Note: Our latest stock of brown‑leather saddles now comes with black stitching and stainless‑steel hardware.
  • All‑new black saddles feature black stitching throughout.
  • Currently, we have a mix of the older style and the new colour combination. When you place an order, we will confirm which finish your saddle will have.

Therefore, the Australian Endurance Saddle delivers the perfect blend of lightness, comfort and adaptability for you and your horse. Whether you’re tackling a gruelling endurance course, enjoying a scenic trail, or competing in Polo Cross, it’s built for the job.

The Felt Endurance Pad works beautifully under the Aussie Endurance saddle.

  1. Dawn Riley

    I bought a Longreach Endurance over a year ago for my (hard to fit) Icelandic Horse. It fits him very well and is nice and light weight, which we both appreciate. I received hours of help from Amber getting the fit right for my Icelandic. Over a year later and we are still very happy with the Longreach. Thanks Amber!

    Great for gaited horse! I have been using this Aussie Endurance Saddle on my Rocky Mountain Horse for over a year now. So many good things to say, first customer service was and continues to be excellent and personal. The quality of the saddle is exceptional including how well it fits my horse. Never a rub and absolutely does NOT interfere with gait. As far as comfort, it is my favorite saddle ever! I can ride all day comfortably without getting stiff or sore anywhere even though I have back, knee, and hip problems. If I ever need another saddle, I will definitely buy this one again.
