In order to ensure that your side saddle fits you precisely, please complete the following steps:
- sit on a hard chair with your back against the back of the chair;
- measure from the back of the knee to the back of the buttocks (this measurement plus 1 or 2 inches determines the seat size you require);
- measure from the back of the cantle, in a straight line to a point in line with the front of the upright pommel or horn (the rider should not be sitting too far back on the cantle, as this causes pressure on the horse's back); and
- you may need to measure across the seat too, to be sure the saddle is wide enough for you.
