Saddle Fitting Service

A poorly fitting saddle is a leading cause of riding problems and discomfort for horses. It can affect posture, movement, and even cause long-term issues. If your horse resists saddling or shows uneven movement, it's time for a professional check.

Our certified saddle fitters combine experience with a precise, hands-on approach to ensure the best fit for both horse and rider. Whether you're evaluating a current saddle or choosing a new one, we’re here to help you get it right.

How Does It Work?

Whether you're looking for a new or second-hand saddle, we offer a wide selection of top-quality brands for every budget. Our experienced team, including certified master saddle fitters, are ready to guide you every step of the way.

Step 1

Visit Our Store

Visit one of our shops for personal advice and to test saddles on our saddle mate. Our experts will guide you in selecting the best fit for you and your horse. If you’re unable to visit, feel free to reach out to us at saddles@emmers.eu, and we’ll assist you remotely.

step 2

On-Site Saddle Fitting

After your store visit, we’ll schedule an appointment at your location, depending on the distance. Our fitter assesses your horse, tests different saddles, and has you ride in them to evaluate the fit during movement—walk, trot, canter, and even jumps if applicable.

Check-up

Already Have a Saddle?

If you're unsure about your current saddle's fit, we offer on-site check-ups, depending on the distance. We evaluate both horse and rider, and often small adjustments can be made immediately. For larger fixes, our in-house workshop is ready to assist.

Today I had a new saddle fitted by Eric, and I’m very satisfied. The saddlefitter takes his time and always puts the horse’s well-being first. On top of that, he provides thorough explanations. Even though it’s not exactly around the corner, the friendly service and expert knowledge are exactly why Emmers is my preferred choice!

Excellent saddle fitting service, highly recommended! A super friendly saddle fitter who takes the time to find the saddle that best suits both you and your horse. I'm a very satisfied customer.

They came to check our saddle, because our pony was experiencing a lot of back pain. After trying a few options we found the right saddle, and the difference was incredible. The pony moved more comfortably than ever before. I had never seen anything like it. So grateful for the advice and the new Erreplus TOP saddle. Thank you, Chris, and thanks also on behalf of the pony!

This past Saturday, we purchased a saddle. Saddle fitter Eric gave us excellent advice. He has a great deal of experience and pays close attention to whether the saddle fits the horse properly, as well as whether it suits the rider. He is very friendly and patient, and the horse’s well-being is clearly his top priority.

The saddle fitters, two knowledgeable and very friendly ladies, provided excellent service. The saddle we purchased is of very high quality and meets the needs of both rider and horse.

We’re extremely satisfied and highly recommend them!
