Sheepskin Barefoot® 'Soft Walk'
Comfortable for horse AND rider!The Barefoot model 'Soft Walk' was developed after listening to rider's feedback, who wanted a low cost sheepskin saddle that would not cause problems for the horse's back but one that also offered the comfort of a genuine sheepskin saddle.The structures of the 'Soft Walk' corresponds to our proven Barefoot saddles: The saddle offers the same protection for the horse and the same flexibility. The integrated VPS system protects the horse's back from pressure points and saddle adapts to the horse's movement to allow muscle development instead of bruising of the muscles. It is therefore possible to use this saddle just as normal with stirrups without any restrictions.For all riders who want to feel safe in the saddle without feeling restricted! The 'Soft Walk' offers even more comfort for the rider: The seat is super soft with the large incorporated foam padding ensuring such a secure, embedded seat for the rider that he will not want to get off. The saddle offers more than support, it 'surrounds' the rider softly and securely - a fantastic feeling!A soft, anatomically shaped cushion is secured (velcro) under the genuine sheepskin seat. This makes the seat even more comfortable and easier on the hips as it gives the saddle more of a twist ensuring the rider does not sit too wide.The underside is made of a thick fleece. The saddle has 4 D-rings.The pommel insert (comes with middle insert) can be exchanged. High-quality conchas with strings for decoration and to attach the sheepskin seat to the saddle base.The pommel (size middle) can be exchanged as with all Barefoots.Saddletype A

Since there is no pressure at all in the rear part, the horse can move freely. Even if the saddle looks a little too long on your horse, choose the size according to your measurements. It is very important that the saddle fits the rider well, so he has enough space between thighs and pommel and does not sit on the pommel or cantle, which would limit the saddle's adaptability. The horse's back is free of any pressure at the rear – the Barefoot can even be lifted slightly at the cantle with a rider on board.

Healthy back due to our VPS SystemVPS stands for vertebrae protecting system.

Exchange Pommel in Size WideThe standard delivery of this saddle includes an interchangeable pommel insert in size WIDE. Each Barefoot saddle is equipped with an exchangeable pommel at the front, which allows it to be adapted to the shoulder width of your horse.

Adjustable Velcro stirrup suspensionThe adjustable Velcro stirrup suspension is attached between the seat and the saddle substructure and is therefore easy to adjust. This means that the saddle can easily be adapted to riders with different leg lengths simply by moving the stirrup suspension either backwards or forwards.

The DryTex™ saddle
This saddle is made of lightweight DryTex™ (water-repellent textile leather). DryTex material is very easy to clean, simply using a damp cloth or sponge - virtually washable. The girth straps are made of leather. We recommend using our matching DryTex™, stirrup leathers with the DryTex saddle, as sharp-edged stirrup leathers can damage the material.
SheepskinThis product is made from real sheepskin. Sheepskin has a temperature-regulating effect – both in cold and in warm weather - and is easy to clean. Simply brush out dirt with a soft brush. Sheepskin seats provide the rider with a comfortable, softer seat.
