TECHNOLOGICALLY ADVANCEDCarefully designed and stringently tested, you can rest assured that every saddle in the John Whitaker Collection has been developed to enhance both you and your horse’s performance. All saddles within the range are built upon our revolutionary flexible Nylon tree, which absorbs shock and pressure; reducing strain on the horses spine and ensuring a more comfortable ride for both horse & rider. The Nylon Tree also means that your saddle can be adjusted in house for any fluctuation in your horses size without any loss of strength and stability.

THEJOHN WHITAKER
STANDARD
Injection Moulded Nylon TreeLight, flexible and shock absorbing. All
saddles within the John Whitaker Collection
feature this revolutionary tree at it’s core
and come complete with the ultimate seal of
quality - our Lifetime Guarantee. Made from
a single mould injected with our durable
Nylon formula this tree distributes pressure
evenly, reducing pressure ‘hot spots.’ this
not only places less strain on the horses
spine, it also provides a much comfier and
stable ride for you. The strength of our
Nylon tree has allowed us to heighten the
tree points whilst maintaining rigidity,
allowing for greater shoulder movement to
enhance your horses performance.
Should your horse change in muscle tone,
we offer a bespoke resizing service using
our special Infra Red Thermo Moulding
Technology which can adjust the width of
your tree by up to 2cm.
Attention to Detail and Quality
Purpose-Led DesignEvery type of equestrian discipline requires
different skills and abilities - and your saddle
should be no different. This is why all
aspects of every saddle we create have
been thoroughly thought out and rigorously
tested to ensure they excel at their intended
use. For example our Kid’s Pony saddle is
designed with safety and stability in mind,
with large calfskin knee rolls to help budding
riders develop their skills while keeping them
safe and our dressage saddle complies with
British Dressage rules.
The Finest Quality LeatherSourced in Europe, all John Whitaker
saddles are crafted in the finest leathers,
which are renowned for their softness and
durability. It’s these leathers that mould so
perfectly to your horse and eliminate the
need to break in your saddle, giving you
optimum comfort and performance from
day one. We are so confident in our leather
quality, that all leather within the Saddle
Collection is guaranteed for two years
against defect.
Carefully DesignedOur Nylon Tree is Guaranteed for Life
Latex Under PanelOur under panel incorporates a shock
absorbing latex construction with a memory
foam padding which moulds to the exact
shape of your horse. When removed, this
foam will revert back to it’s original form
unlike traditional wool flocking. Our felt lined
under panel features slits should you wish to
use extra wool flocking.
This mouldability means that your John
Whitaker saddle can be used on different
horses.
Unrivalled Value for MoneyBacked by our Lifetime Tree Guarantee, and
our two year guarantee against leather
defects, we are confident that you will not
find another saddle that meets John
Whitaker standards of quality and price.
Used by professionals and amateurs alike,
there is a John Whitaker saddle to suit any
rider, discipline or budget.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONSHow should I care for my John Whitaker Saddlle?Before using your John Whitaker Saddle for the first time, we recommend that you use a good quality leather soap to help seal in the leather’s natural oil. After subsequent use, any build up of dirt or grime should be wiped down with a damp, clean cloth or sponge as soon as possible to prevent any damage. Be careful not to rub too hard, as any debris can scratch the soft leather. Contact with grooming and fly protection products should be avoided, as alcohol can discolour and damage the leather.
How should I store my saddle?Saddles should be stored in a warm, dry environment to prevent mildew and mold and away from direct sunlight to avoid discoloration of the leather. We recommend that saddles be stored on a rack to maintain their shape.
Can I use my saddle for more than one horse?We have developed our saddles to be as simple to use and maintain as possible. Because of our memory foam flocking our saddles will mould to each individual horses shape whilst worn. This means that providing your horses are of a similar shape, you can use John Whitaker Saddles on several horses and your saddle will adjust accordingly. We always recommend that you have your saddle checked by a qualified saddle fitter.
How often do I need to reflock my John Whitaker Saddle?Never! Thanks to the latex under panel and memory foam flocking, the padding will always return to its original shape. There are slits for extra wool flocking if desired.
Can I adjust the size of my saddle?All saddles within the John Whitaker Collection are built upon our revolutionary Nylon tree, which can be adjusted an unlimited amount of times without losing its strength and stability. Adjustments of up to 2cm can be made in-house to an exact template of your horse.
What size do I need?Please visit our website at www.johnwhitaker.com for our full size guides or contact our sales staff on +44(0)1706 340 500 who will advise you.
How long is my saddle guaranteed for?Our Nylon tree is guaranteed for a lifetime and all leather used within our Saddle Collection is guaranteed against defects for 2 years. Other leatherwork from John Whitaker is guaranteed for 12 months. Guarantee’s are subject to proper use. Your statutory rights will not be affected. If you have any other questions, please visit our website at www.johnwhitaker.com, or contact one of our sales staff who will answer any questions you may have.
