Cavalier
Imperial Derwent
All Purpose Saddles
Manufacturer: Cavalier
Model: Imperial Derwent
Category: All Purpose Saddles
Purchase: I bought this saddle for my young paint horse for his first show season.
I paid around $300 for this saddle, it had been lightly used.
Likes: price and Color
Dislikes: The whole saddle is out of proportion. My knees don't reach the leg rolls, the seat feels awkward and its struggle to keep my position. The leather looks like cardboard and The Havana brown color rubbed off under the stirrup leathers, revealing what looks like an ugly yellow stain
I also noticed my horse was distracted and fussy while riding in it.
This saddle Makes riding more uncomfortable than fun for both horse and rider.
Quality: The quality is cheap.
I don't know what kind of horse this saddle would fit.
Summary: I do not recommend this saddle; spend your money on something you will be satisfied with.
