English Saddle Fittings/Pads

Manufacturer: Prussian
Model: Irons (Nickel Plated)
Category: English Saddle Fittings/Pads

Purchase: I got these irons with my first saddle - they're thin-based and lightweight. After looking in several catalogues, the going price seems to be around $13.00 Cdn.

Likes: They're lightweight and therefore move with you. When I do gaming, I find that the heavier weight irons get in my way when I'm trying to mount / dismount quickly. I have several bruises on my hip from that. This isn't a problem with the lighter irons. The irons are sold without stirrup pads, but you can buy some specifically for thin-based irons for around $3.00 Cdn.

Dislikes:

Quality: Apple Saddlery of Ottawa, Ontario, Canada states "Thin base nickel plated malleable iron with picked tread".

Summary: They're good irons and priced reasonably.
