Smart Saddle
The Solution saddle design has been established since 1999 and is now thoroughly tested and proven. The unique system fits around the shape of the horse and flexes with the movement of the back. Without the “clothes peg” effect of the tree points restricting the shoulder and surrounding musculature, the forehand is able to free up and the horse can more readily find his natural balance with more uphill and straighter movement.
It is designed to be used with The Solution balance pads where needed to ensure optimum fit and balance for horse and rider. This feature enables the saddle to fit your horse throughout the season, or for one saddle to be fitted to any horse.
The British made Solution saddle is the first treeless saddle to be designed specifically as a professional riders tool. It is allowed for use in all disciplines under FEI and national governing body rules.
The Solution probably remains the only truly treeless saddle - it has absolutely no rigid parts to cause injury and is completely flexible.
The new generation saddle that performs better for the horse and for the rider with RigidFree™ technology.
In addition to our popular original patented treeless saddle designs, Solution Saddles have researched and developed the most technologically advanced saddle model available. Computer aided designs and revolutionary process of 3D scanned surface modelling give precision and symmetry to the classic, traditional style saddles.
The SMART™ saddle has evolved through years of research in the quest to develop the perfect saddle to improve equine welfare and performance. The designs and materials used are thoroughly researched and tested and we have taken advice from industry professionals to ensure the best product outcome, from both the materials used and the effects of the saddle on the horse.
The SMART™ saddle design provides increased rider support without adding bulk. This puts The SMART™ in the top bracket of any competition saddle range - with the added advantage of being far more versatile when it comes to fitting.
We pride ourselves in being a company where our saddles are designed, used and fitted by riders who understand the need for horse and rider comfort and performance. The full range of Dressage, GP and Jump saddles are now available.

Unique, patented design features:
- Tooled weight bearing panels – State of the art prototyping technologies, using computer numerical controlled machines, provide even weight distribution and rider support where it is needed most.
- High density, floating fins are integrated to support and distribute the weight and movement of the rider.
- The W girth system with variable tension allows the saddle to flex with the horse’s back and limb action, giving complete freedom of movement. The W system accommodates even the most difficult conformation comfortably, improves girth position for awkward conformation and saddle stability for all back shapes.
- The precision moulded, shock absorbing seat provides unparalleled rider comfort, depth and feel. Improved seat and hip support gives effective leg contact, refined balance and overall classical posture.
- Leather. All SMART™ saddles are made using superior quality ‘Memmel’ print leather. This pre-oiled, malleable leather is very high quality. It is durable, weather resistant and needs no ‘breaking in’. The matt, non-slip finish ensures the rider is instantly comfortable and assists them to feel more secure in the saddle. *The leather can be treated as normal and cleaned using Bee Natural saddle cleaner, Ensuring our unique RigidFree™ saddle range continues to be the market leader - Now that’s SMART™
