I got this saddle after surgery where I was told I couldn't lift a heavy saddle. I thought I would use it temporarily, but I love it so much that I sold my other one and use this exclusively. VERY comfortable, it sets you nice and firm with the high back. Molds to your horse well.

Hello Michal Guliamov, thank you for your question. They are nylon stirrups that are shaped like Western stirrups. Please let me know if you have any further questions or comments. Thank you. ~Katie, RW
Hi @SamIAm, This saddle has a v rigging for the girth and stirrup to attach to across the horses back, which disperses the pressure across a larger area. If you are concerned about pressure dispersal, you can use this with a memory foam pad which will also help create more of a spine channel. I would recommend that if you plan on riding for longer distances in this saddle. Feel free to contact us at info@ridingwarehouse.com, 1(800)620-9145 or on our website live chat for personalized recommendations :). -Your Friendly Crew at RW
i got one for Christmas and i don't not haw to fit it. i put it on like a English saddle and it digs in to me horse and i put it on another one and it did the same.
Hi, Dianna. Sorry we missed your comment! The Soft Saddle is every soft and flexible so we're curious where it was digging in exactly. Did you sort out the fitting issues?
It sat on his back like a 2x4 peace of wood. there was no give in the middle. it touched at the very front wither and at the very back. I thought if i sat in it it might bend. it did a little maybe half inch not even close to being flexible. i had several people look at it even a saddle fitter. we tried it on 5 other horses in the barn and all of them were the same thing. So it was not just my horse. I 'm very sorry to tell this to you. I was so hoping it was my answer for me. love the hole consented of this. it just has NO give to the shape of a horses back.
Thank you for your feedback. This is the first we've heard of this, but your candor is certainly appreciated. As a related side note, we have a 14-day return policy on saddles and an unbeatable one-year free returns policy on other items. Happy riding!
tried it on 3 horses, it fitted none of them!! I was extremely disappointed. I had it shipped to the Netherlands after I saw this clip. But is wasn't worth it. I sold it for €50,- with the message that it didn't fit my horses but the lady wanted it anyway. unfortunately, it didn't fit her horse either! 😠
Just curious. For the people saying it doesn't fit their horses. I have seen a lot of reviews from the makers of other treeless saddles that say it does take a week or two for their saddles to "meld" to the horse. Is that true of the Cashel as well? At the same time I have read a lot of reviews saying the Cashel fits like a glove right out of the box.
Hello Scott, thank you commenting! These saddles tend to be a little stiff when first trying out, but once being used continually these saddles will soften up and slowly conform to the confirmation of the horse. Most of our customers believe these saddles are very comfortable/ridable. You are able to feel the horse more with these saddles, allowing you to be more in tune with your horse. Please let us know if you have any further questions. Happy Riding! ~Katie, RW

What accessories do I need with this saddle? Do I need a pad?

How much can this cost at the LEAST? :)
Doesn’t that defeat the point of BARE BACK!!!
the material is the opposite of flexible 😕
You just have to break it in. I love mine! 👍🏻❤️
i don't think I will ever buy this saddle...
Your prices are way to high
