Ich denke die Bilder sprechen für sich! 😃
Über die letzten 16 Jahre konnten wir so vielen Pferde mit unserem HIDALGO Lederbaum System helfen!
Das macht uns sehr stolz und bestätigt, so weiterzumachen 💪🏼🐎

First off, I want to thank Insight Equine for sharing these before & after pictures with me & for giving the HIDALGO Sattel leather tree a shot!
Before you read on, please know that before & after pictures are extremely variable & can be misleading. No before & after is "black & white". There are always many conditions that contribute to the results.
Picture descriptions:
Top Picture---October 2022; horse's back while still using old saddle that wasn't fitting the best any longer. This pic was taken after old saddle was removed after final ride in former saddle.
Bottom Picture---January 2023; horses back after being ridden ba****ck through November 2022 & adding new Hidalgo leather tree dressage saddle in December 2022
The leather tree saddle does take time to form to the horse & rider which requires some adjustments to the panels & sometimes shimming during the break in period. This is all guided by your Hidalgo fitter, in person or remotely. :)
Some comments from the owner/rider of the horse during our chat:
"I end up fiddling with it every few rides and am already in a thinner shim than the one we started with! I feel fairly confident that he’ll tell me/I’ll feel it when it’s ready to change again. Sweat/dust patterns look 👍👍👍"
"I’m not a huge fan of before/after pics coz angle, posture, footing, etc etc etc play such a big roll buuuuuuut these are some huge changes, positive changes"!
"First pic is from the day I decided to toss the old saddle and second pic is from today. Nothing else has changed (nutrition/environment/way of going/etc)"
"Like, okay I know the angle and stance are slightly different in these pics, but that’s still a huge change"
This goes to show how a not so great fitting saddle can restrict your horse. Please make sure your saddle is not restricting your horse's back by having a qualified professional to evaluate if you are unsure.
It has been a pleasure working with Chiara & her BLM Mustang gelding! If you are in the Fort Collins, CO area, find her!!
