2.0 = Fair ConditionA Black Country Dante dressage saddle in black calf leather, with a 17.5" deep seat and an MW fitting. The Dante is Black Country's close-contact dressage saddle, built on its own Dante tree with straighter tree points and a narrower twist, so you sit close to your horse in a tall, upright position. The square cantle, square-cut flap and square head nail give it a sleek, distinctive look.
Fit & feel
- 17.5" deep seat with a narrow twist
- Close-contact design
- Standard internal knee roll, leaving you free to adjust your leg position
- Wool-flocked panels, which a fitter can adjust to fine-tune the fit as your horse changes shape
- 1/2 front gussets, giving support while accommodating bigger shoulders
- Standard wither profile
- Fixed tree, currently an MW fitting, which a qualified fitter can adjust on a pressure bench
- Point and V-web girthing
- Black calf leather, in excellent condition
This one suits a horse with a standard wither, ridden by someone who wants a close, upright dressage position. It's worth trialling alongside a Black Country Eloquence on the Classic tree, which has a bell-shaped head and a shaped body, so you can compare the tree shape and how close each one lets you sit. As ever, that's a starting point for narrowing things down rather than a fit guarantee, so we'd recommend trialling it alongside an appointment with a fitter to see how it sits on your horse.
