The future of saddlery is here now!
Thorowgood have now launched the new range of both real leather (L4 range) and leatherlook saddles (T6 range) with interchangeable headplates and panels.

Now, with both The Wow and Thorowgood you have the flexibility to keep up with any changes that may occur with your horse throughout the year.

This is a popular Award Winning range of leather look, and now also REAL LEATHER saddles designed and manufactured here in the UK.

The brand new L4 Leather and T6 leather look ranges come in two types of GP saddle; a flatter tree for wider horses and a deeper seated one for the more shapely. With both interchangeable headplates and interchangeable panels it’s now possible to achieve as optimum a fit as is possible, whatever your horses’ level of fitness.

Prices range from just £450-£699.


Thorowgood saddle

New for Autumn 2007. Now the ever popular T4 GP range also comes with interchangeable headplates to give you even more flexibility in fitting your horse throughout seasonal changes. With its suede effect seat and knee rolls this saddle also gives the rider plenty of added security.

Prices range from £259 to £349

These saddles are designed to fit a range of horses backs, whether high-withered Thoroughbreds, low-withered Cobs or in-between. There are also Pony Club approved saddles which also come in smaller sizes with the 15” having available two lengths of flap to suit children of differing heights.

Also available to compliment the saddles are the Thorowgood range of Girths, Stirrup Straps, Tuffa Stirrups and the new T6 Ultimate Movement 6 Way Stirrup Irons.

The Conform Saddle Cloths and Numnahs are designed to fit perfectly underneath the saddles and come in four styles, Pony, ‘Grippy’ Cob to minimise slipping, Standard and High Wither with extra padding. Both styles available in black or white.

Designed to maximise performance and comfort of both horse and rider using the latest technology available commercially.

Invented and produced here in the UK, The Wow, with its wide range of features, is the world’s first truly modular saddle.
Fixed black dressage
The Wow Saddle has many features that make it truly a saddle for life. These include:

  • Flexible tree
  • 11 changeable head plate sizes, with new extra-light Magnesium headplates
  • Interchangeable seats, flaps (with adjustable positions) and panels
  • Air flocking in the panels for optimum comfort
  • Dressage, VSD, GP, Jumping and Endurance styles with a choice of fixed or moveable block knee rolls.

This saddle has to be tried to fully appreciate all of its capabilities.
After the initial assessment, the demonstration saddle of your chosen style is fitted and tried. You may wish to try the different styles of seat, new Extra Deep, Deep, Shallow or Flat with the flap either straight or forward to see which suits you best. Then the saddle can be left with you for up to one week for you to try out thoroughly with no obligation.

When you place your order, the saddle is made in the colour and type of leather of your choice. Plain, suede, buffalo or buffalo nubuck. All of these can be grain side up or reversed. A choice of colours are available – swatches of leather are available and you can mix and match the combinations of your choice, even down to plain or white stitching. Should you require longer or shorter flaps these are available in some of the styles. The saddle comes complete with stirrup leathers and a fleece cover.
