The Dutch Touch, LLC. Saddle Fitting Services

02/26/2022

To all Schleese clients in Alaska: I am preparing for a big move, to the East Coast. I will still be in Alaska and available for saddlefits until March 24. I will be back in the fall if there’s enough interest for a fitting trip. I will try to come back twice a year for those that need adjustments. If you’d like to get on the schedule this spring, before I leave please call or message me to get you on the list. Feel free to pass on the word, I don’t want to miss anyone that needs to be seen!

Happy trails and let’s hope for spring weather real soon!!!!

Ever wondered how an old saddle looks like from the inside? This saddle was at least 50-60 years old. Technology changed dramatically (narrow gullet, no spring steel and forward facing tree points to point out a few), so not safe to put on your horse. It’s always fun to dissect these oldies. I found horse hair in the seat and nice solid felt panels. Tree sound but wood was very brittle so broke easily while being dismantled. Enjoy.

Take Flight with the Schleese Jeté!

The word Jeté comes from the French and in its verb form (jeter) simply means “to jump”.
Jeté itself is a noun and means ‘the Jump’ – in ballet, the term “Grand Jeté” connotes a classical leap high in the air in full split extension.

That is the feeling Schleese wants to portray with its new saddle – flying through the air at great height!

MORE ABOUT THE OBRIGADO:

Built on a modified AdapTree®, the Obrigado saddle offers the most extreme shoulder freedom for the horse, with a comfortable, soft seat for the rider.

Obrigado means ‘thank you’ in Portuguese.
It was developed together with the head trainer of the Lusitano Association in Sao Paulo Brazil. He came up with the name because he actually felt his horses were saying ‘thank you’ for being afforded such freedom of movement.
It has become the saddle of choice for riders of all levels and has been proven especially effective for the ‘baroque-style’ horses.
