Obrigado Dressage Saddle – Traditional Line
$5,322.00
The Obrigado Dressage Saddle is designed to create an unparalleled bond between horse and rider — allowing you to feel every breath, every movement, and every moment as one. Built on a modified AdapTree®, it offers the deepest, softest seat in the dressage industry, giving riders the sensation of becoming truly one with their horse.
Developed in collaboration with the head trainer of the Lusitano Association in São Paulo, Brazil, the Obrigado was named to express what horses themselves might say: “Obrigado” (thank you) for the freedom of movement and comfort this saddle provides.
