Cashel G2 Soft Saddle - Lightweight Treeless Horse Riding Saddle, Microfiber Suede, 6 lbs - Multiple Sizes
- Vendor: Cashel
Product description
Experience the ultimate freedom of movement with a saddle that weighs just six pounds and contours to your horse's every stride. Whether you're starting a young colt or enjoying a long day on the trail, the Cashel G2 Soft Saddle eliminates the bulk of traditional trees to provide a secure, close-contact connection that keeps both you and your horse comfortable for miles.
Engineered with high-quality, water-repellent microfiber suede and a plush fleece underside, the G2 Soft Saddle is built for durability without the weight. Its innovative treeless architecture uses sculpted layers of closed-cell foam and neoprene to distribute weight evenly while remaining flexible enough to fit even the most "hard-to-fit" horses, making it an ideal choice for therapeutic riding, senior horses, and daily exercise.
Key Features & Specifications:
- Ultra-Lightweight 6 lb Design: Dramatically reduces the load on your horse and makes saddling effortless for riders who struggle with heavy traditional gear or have physical limitations.
- Treeless Foam Architecture: Constructed with layers of closed-cell foam and neoprene over sculpted wedges, allowing the saddle to flex naturally with your horse’s movement for a truly harmonious ride.

Frequently Asked Questions:
Q: Does this saddle require a specific type of saddle pad?
A: Yes, because the Cashel G2 is a treeless saddle without a rigid gullet, we strongly recommend using a high-quality treeless-specific or thick felt pad to ensure proper spine clearance and even pressure distribution for your horse's comfort.
Q: Is the color a true black or a dark brown?
A: While officially described as "Black" by Cashel, the material presents as a very deep, rich brown. This sophisticated, versatile shade complements a wide variety of tack and horse coat colors while maintaining a professional look.
Q: What are the best uses for this treeless saddle?
A: The G2 Soft Saddle is perfect for casual trail riding, pleasure riding, and colt starting. Its lightweight nature also makes it a top choice for senior horses with sensitive backs or for riders who prefer a close-contact, bareback-style feel with added security.
