"I am 100% satisfied that I have made a very sound investment in my SMART™ Eventer and it will be my saddle for life."

“I have had my SMART™ Eventer saddle for five months now and it has been used nearly every day so far. I am absolutely delighted with it and my horse, Teddy, has shown some very positive changes in his way of going since returning to Solution Saddles after a brief time in a treed saddle.

The test ride was a relaxed and friendly experience and I felt under no pressure whatsoever to buy, nor did I feel uncomfortable whilst trying it. I find that Solution Saddles are a great company to deal with and are extremely knowledgeable and helpful.

I have previously owned a Solution GP for five years, which proved to be thoroughly versatile – fitting many horses of assorted sizes ranging from little 13.1hh to a HW 16.1hh with just a few simple shimming alterations.

As ever, Solution Saddles are a forward thinking and innovative company and I feel that the SMART™ saddle is even easier to fit and gives an improved riding experience.


My SMART™ Eventer saddle is so very versatile it was used over the summer during a three-discipline riding camp, culminating in a mini one-day event at the end. It performed brilliantly and went from dressage through to cross-country with only minor knee roll and stirrup length adjustments.




Moreover, with some minor shim adjustments, my SMART™ Eventer is also easily adapted for my nine-year-old daughter to ride in balanced and very secure position – a truly versatile saddle!

I am often disappointed with various horsey products that don’t live up to their claims, however I am 100% satisfied that I have made a very sound investment in my SMART™ Eventer and it will be my saddle for life.”
