Abetta Draft Comfort Pleasure Saddle

Abetta Draft Comfort Pleasure: Cushioned Comfort for Broader Horses with Easy-Care Performance

Designed specifically for broader-backed horses, the Abetta Draft Comfort Pleasure Saddle delivers a smooth, cushioned ride while keeping weight and maintenance to a minimum. Built for relaxed riding, trail use, and long hours in the saddle, it offers dependable comfort without the bulk or upkeep of traditional leather Draft saddles.

Constructed with a rugged 1000-denier nylon outer shell laminated over shock-absorbing foam, this saddle is made to handle years of use, changing weather, and everyday riding conditions. The Super Cushion seat provides a soft, supportive feel, while the lightweight synthetic design helps reduce rider fatigue and makes handling easier—especially when saddling taller Draft or Draft-cross horses.

Shaped on Abetta’s poly-solid Draft Horse tree with an 8" gullet, the Draft Comfort Pleasure Saddle is built to accommodate wider shoulders and fuller backs while maintaining balanced weight distribution. Finished with light-color fleece and paired with Abetta’s inverted stirrups, it promotes comfort and stability for both horse and rider, ride after ride.
