Saddle Accessories for a Better Fit and Longer Life
The right accessories can extend the life of your saddle, improve the fit, and make every ride more comfortable for both you and your horse. At Solo Saddlers, our saddle accessories collection covers everything from protective covers and risers to girth sleeves and cruppers — the practical extras that serious riders always have on hand.
Saddle Covers and Protection
A good saddle cover protects your investment from dust, scratches, and UV damage when your saddle isn't in use. We stock fleece-lined covers for storage and waterproof options for travelling. Considering what a quality saddle costs, a cover is one of the cheapest forms of insurance you'll find.
Risers, Half Pads and Shims
Saddle fit isn't always perfect, and sometimes a well-placed riser or half pad can bridge the gap between a good fit and a great one. Our range includes gel pads, foam risers, front and rear shims, and correction half pads that help distribute pressure more evenly across your horse's back.
Girth Sleeves, Elastic Attachments and Buckle Guards
Prevent rubs and protect your tack with girth sleeves and buckle guards. Elastic girth attachments add a degree of give that some horses appreciate, particularly those that expand through the ribcage during work. These are small additions that make a noticeable difference.
Cruppers, Breastplates and Extras
For horses with tricky conformations or riders tackling hilly terrain, cruppers and breastplates keep the saddle where it belongs. We stock a range of styles to suit different disciplines and saddle types.
Build Your Complete Setup
Pair your saddle accessories with a quality saddle pad, the right girth, and properly fitted stirrups and leathers. Solo Saddlers has been helping South African riders put together the right kit for over 35 years — and we deliver nationwide.
