The Legacy Saddles Advantage
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
Abetta Original: The Saddle That Defined Synthetic Trail Performance
The saddle that started it all, the Abetta Original set the standard for what a synthetic saddle should be—lightweight, durable, comfortable, and easy to maintain. Trusted by riders for decades, it remains one of the most popular choices for everyday riding, trail use, and all-around versatility.
Built on a proven poly-solid Quarter Horse tree with Full QH bars and a 7" gullet, the Abetta Original delivers reliable fit and balance for stock-type horses. Its scratch-resistant 1000-denier nylon outer shell laminated over shock-absorbing foam stands up to daily use while keeping weight to a minimum. Rugged enough for constant riding and simple enough to maintain, it cleans up easily with a quick rinse—ready to ride again in no time.

Western Saddle Seat Size Guide
Use this quick calculator as a general guideline to help you choose a Western seat size for most western saddles.
This calculator is a general fit guideline only. Individual saddles, padding, and rider preferences can change the ideal size. When you sit in the saddle, a common check is about three fingers of space between your thigh and the swell. If you’re between sizes or have questions, we’re always happy to help.
