Customer comments:
| Deb, Thanks for
the new Sinclair saddle you made for The
Navigator, my AERC horse. I took an
opportunity to have you measure and fit "Gaiter"
for his new saddle. "Gaiter" showed an
immediate improvement in his gait and attitude
with his new saddle. "Gaiter" has done
very well as a limited distance endurance horse
and I'm sure he'll improve with the excellent
fit of this saddle. I 'm enjoying the
reduced stress on my legs and knees with the
English stirrup leathers. We're both
enjoying the significant weight reduction
compared to my previous western trail saddle.
For me, this is one of the most comfortable
saddles I've ever ridden and is comfort ever
important in endurance racing! Dawn (July

Dear Debra,
The difference in Herbie was
astonishing. He took five steps and settled down to
gaiting far better than he has since I bought him. And
he stayed that way for two and a half hours of trail
riding as well in deep snow with three other horses. HE
is happy with the saddle and it was as obvious to my
companions as it was to me.
Not only that, but there was about an
hour's unsaddled break between the indoor test ride and
resaddling him for the trail ride. Ordinarily, the
little beastie would greet his saddle with pinned ears.
When he saw the Sinclair coming at him again his ears
were up and he made no protest about being cinched up
either. That spoke volumes... I have tried many saddles
over the years and I know when it's good within minutes.
The Sinclair felt like "old home week" in seconds.
Thank you for all your help and your
considerable expertise. You will definitely be getting
recommendations from me to my friends who are looking
for saddles. Everyone at my barn who saw the saddle
asked about it and thought it handsome and comfy
looking. Sharon
