Cavaletti VSD Saddle fitted by independent saddle fitter in West Sussex

Cavaletti Saddles combine rider comfort, horse welfare, and practical saddle adjustability in a collection designed for modern horse owners. As an independent saddle fitter serving West Sussex, Hampshire, Surrey, and surrounding areas, we supply and fit the complete Cavaletti Saddle Collection, including GP, dressage, and jumping saddles.

Every saddle fitting appointment focuses on balance, pressure distribution, freedom through the shoulder, and long-term comfort for both horse and rider. Our independent approach means each saddle recommendation is based entirely on your horse’s conformation, movement, and ridden biomechanics.

If you are looking for professional independent saddle fitting services, regular saddle checks, or advice on finding a quality adjustable saddle, the Cavaletti range offers an excellent balance of affordability, adjustability, and rider support.

The Cavaletti GP Saddle Collection

The Cavaletti GP Saddle range has been designed to support everyday riding disciplines, including schooling, hacking, flatwork, and general riding activities. These versatile saddles are built with rider stability and horse comfort in mind, helping maintain balanced positioning while allowing the horse to move freely underneath the saddle.

One of the defining features of every Cavaletti Saddle is the Interchangeable Gullet Bar System, allowing the saddle width to be adjusted as your horse changes shape throughout the seasons, during training, or through muscle development. This flexibility helps maintain correct saddle fit without the need to replace the saddle.

The collection includes both full leather and selected synthetic saddle options to suit different rider preferences and budgets. We also occasionally stock quality second hand saddles suitable for a variety of horses and disciplines.

During your saddle fitting appointment, we assess:

  • Back shape and topline development
  • Shoulder freedom and saddle clearance
  • Panel contact and pressure distribution
  • Rider balance and positioning
  • Saddle stability during movement

The Cavaletti Dressage Saddle Collection

The Cavaletti Dressage Saddle Collection has been designed for riders seeking improved stability, deeper seat security, and close contact communication during flatwork and dressage training.

Key Features of the Cavaletti Dressage Saddle

  • Interchangeable Gullet System with 6 width fitting options
  • Classic deep seat for rider stability
  • Moveable front knee blocks
  • Soft hide knee pads for rider comfort
  • Wool flocked panels for balanced pressure distribution
  • Full grain leather construction

Designed with both horse biomechanics and rider posture in mind, the Cavaletti Dressage Saddle supports a more balanced riding position while helping the rider maintain a secure, aligned seat. The straighter cut flap design allows improved leg positioning for dressage and flatwork disciplines.

The wool flocked panel system helps the saddle adapt more naturally to the horse’s back shape while supporting even weight distribution across the thoracic region. Combined with the adjustable gullet system, the saddle can be modified as your horse develops through training or seasonal condition changes.

Moveable knee blocks allow riders to customise support based on leg length and riding preference, while optional cantle and stirrup keeper badges provide additional personalisation.

Correct saddle fit is essential for maintaining freedom through the shoulders, spinal clearance, and rider balance. Learn more about our approach to professional saddle fitting assessments and rider biomechanics.

The Cavaletti Jump Saddle Collection

The Cavaletti Jump Saddle Collection has been developed for riders involved in show jumping, cross country, hunting, riding club activities, and general jumping disciplines. The forward-cut design supports rider positioning over fences while maintaining stability and close contact with the horse.

Key Features of the Cavaletti Jump Saddle

  • Interchangeable Gullet System with 6 fitting widths
  • Classic low-profile jumping seat
  • Moveable front blocks with fixed rear blocks
  • Soft hide knee pads
  • Wool flocked panels for balanced fit
  • Full grain leather construction

The saddle’s forward flap design encourages correct rider alignment during jumping phases, while the low seat profile allows greater freedom of movement when riding shorter stirrup lengths.

Fixed rear blocks and adjustable front blocks provide rider security without restricting movement, helping riders maintain balance over fences, during faster work, and across varied terrain.

The interchangeable gullet system allows the saddle fit to evolve alongside your horse’s muscular development and seasonal condition changes, helping maintain consistent comfort and saddle stability throughout the year.

As part of our independent saddle fitting service, we assess saddle balance dynamically while the horse is moving, ensuring the saddle performs correctly during ridden work rather than simply fitting statically in the stable.

You can also explore our wider services for saddle flocking, routine saddle checks, and rider balance assessments.
