HM FlexEE saddles

Elisha Willett and SureStride Saddles will be taking over sales of the FlexEE range of saddles, the FlexEE Synthetic, the Finale and the Pad-dle, with immediate effect. The brand will still be owned by me, but Elisha will undertake sales worldwide. I will however, be keeping on sales of the Vogue saddles, as it is less work being manufactured in the UK, so no hassle with import etc. I want to spend more time with my horses now, at 70 years of age in May, and also concentrating on trying to promote French Classical equitation through online courses.

Elisha is one of our Enlightened Equitation teachers and also has an Equisimulator, so I wish her every success in this venture, and I know that I can rely on her to give it her best. No one could accuse Elisha of a lack of enthusiasm!

The HM FlexEE Finale is a high-quality saddle at an amazing price! It is built on a leather ‘tree’, a very old method of making a flexible saddle. The FlexEE Finale, as with all Heather Moffett saddles, is ergonomically designed to allow the rider, even a total beginner, to sit in the correct ear/shoulder/hip/heel alignment with ease. The Finale is made with the finest soft European hide and the panels are flocked with pure Jacob's wool. The price starts from £899 and each saddle comes with a full set of gullet plates.

The FlexEE is a hand-made saddle, including the leather tree. Unlike a ready-made wooden or plastic tree, the leather tree takes up half the manufacturing time to make, so adds considerably to the saddlers time taken to make a saddle from start to finish. A leather tree also takes more skill to incorporate into a saddle, as unlike wood or plastic which is solid, leather being flexible, moves the whole time the saddle is being made, adding greatly to the difficulty. The lead time can also vary as we are sometimes waiting on materials imported from the UK which can get held up in customs either end. We hope that you will bear with us, as our manufacturer and ourselves, can only do our best in the face of import and export challenges, and that occasionally lead times will be extended in the case of such events.

The HM FlexEE Synthetic is a high-quality saddle at an amazing price! It is a synthetic saddle built on a leather ‘tree’, a very old method of making a flexible saddle. The FlexEE Synthetic, as with all Heather Moffett saddles, is ergonomically designed to allow the rider, even a total beginner, to sit in the correct ear/shoulder/hip/heel alignment with ease. The price is £599 and each saddle comes with a full set of gullet plates.
