A Hybrid saddle with external knee blocks The T8 Surface Block Saddle by Thorowgood is made from Synthetic with a leather seat, knee roll and thigh pad. This saddle is available in a Medium Panel or High Wither Panel with seven gullet variations.

You also have three different girthing positions to accomodate for where your horse's girthing position is which we have no control over but we can make it to sit in a better position by the use of these different girthing positions.

The T8 is made in England by quality English craftsmen and women. The saddle is packed with 100% British wool flock panels which have access holes under the saddle for easy access for a qualified saddle fitter or saddler to make adjustments if necessary.

You have seven different gullets for this saddle. Clean your saddle regularly with a damp sponge moistened with water and put Rapide cream on the leather sections of the saddle.

Medium Wither Panel

The Medium profile panel is wool flocked and offers closer rider contact and remarkable saddle stability, while the open-headed tree is suited to a wide variety of conformations.

Low Profile Panel

Tailor-made to allow the broader horse to work in comfort, the low profile panels offer closer rider contact, making this the best solution for the low withered horse doing flatwork.

High Wither Panel

Tailored for high withered horses such as Thoroughbreds and Warmbloods, with an open headed tree and panels specially shaped to give maximum wither clearance.

These saddles feature a surface-mounted knee block which are contoured to provide enhanced in-saddle security for the rider without restriction of the knees.
