The Wintec 500 Dressage HART Saddle, Black is designed for riders focusing on dressage training, flatwork schooling, and competition preparation. It combines lightweight synthetic materials with modern saddle technology to improve comfort and balance for both horse and rider.

The saddle features a deep supportive seat, which helps riders maintain correct posture and stability during dressage movements and transitions. The grippy leather-look synthetic surface provides comfort while remaining easy to clean and maintain.

The Wintec 500 Dressage saddle includes Horse and Rider Technology (HART), which integrates several systems designed to improve saddle performance and horse comfort.

One of these systems is the CAIR® Cushion System, which uses air panels instead of traditional flocking to distribute the rider’s weight more evenly across the horse’s back and help reduce pressure points.

The saddle also features the EASY-CHANGE™ Fit Solution, allowing the gullet width and panel balance to be adjusted to suit different horse shapes or changes in muscle development over time.

With a weight of approximately 6.4 kg (14.1 lb), the saddle is relatively lightweight and easier to handle compared with many traditional leather dressage saddles.
