The Bates Isabell Icon stands alone in freeing your horse’s full scope of movement and conveying your aids clearly. Strengthening your natural position and enhancing your intuitive connection, through saddle innovation and career experience. Your journey starts here.

For you
Beneath elegant lines, the perfect dressage seat and leading saddle innovations can be tailored perfectly for your ridden biomechanics. When you optimise the saddle for your natural position,
your balance and stability are enhanced, you ride in total synergy and your vision comes to life.

“Sitting centrally in the saddle you feel close to your horse, able to sit deeper with exceptional stability to move with the swing of your horse.” Isabell Werth

For your horse
Engineered to adapt with your horse as they move through their body with total comfort, displaying strength and suppleness through their movements.
You will immediately notice your connection is accentuated and your horse more intrinsically responsive to your aids.

“I love to see the freedom in my horse’s shoulder, to feel in their expression they are comfortable and supple. The adjustability of my saddle together with CAIR has kept so many of my horses so comfortable over so many years.” Isabell Werth

Bates SynergyPanel: the ultimate for close contact dressage performance

Exclusive to Bates Saddles. Ultra-fine and low profile, this panel sculpts away from your horse’s shoulder and transitions contact seamlessly and gradually on to your horse’s body, freeing their shoulder and achieving optimal space around the wither. The connection between you and your horse is accentuated through channelling your leg with seamless contact to let your horse feel your aids as they have never before. Your horse will instantly respond to the soft cushioning of the CAIR Cushion System, which lets them extend, lift and round to their fullest potential.

This saddle is in great condition with no notable scratches or marks. It is currently fitted with Green (MN) gullet bar.  To purchase additional gullet bars please click here Bates Gullet Bars

Acavallo AluPlus Stirrup

New premium model of our patented, laterally opening Arena stirrups, completely made of certified high-grade anodized aluminum and fitted with a stainless steel tread. Acavallo has carefully chosen and combined the materials used, following detailed research and comprehensive testing.

The aluminum, besides giving the stirrup a sleek and elegant appearance, is lightweight and extremely durable, while the stainless steel protects the tread from corrosion, guaranteeing a long life of the product, too. The opening of the stress-actuated locking and release mechanism is located a centimeter higher from the tread to ensure that the foot cannot slip out laterally by mistake and to prevent sand and dirt from delaying the opening action of the arm in case of an emergency.

Long holes in the tread prevent sand and dirt accumulations so that the gripping effect is not compromised and a five degree inclination of the tread helps riders to assume the correct posture, relieving tension in their ankles, calves, knees and hips.

Stirrup Bank – Terms

Our Stirrup Bank allows you to try a set of stirrups at home for 2 weeks before committing.

• Stirrups are supplied at full retail price for the trial.

• As they may have been used previously, some light signs of wear should be expected.

• If the stirrups aren’t suitable, you’re welcome to return them within the 2-week trial period for a refund minus 10% of the retail value.

• All returned items are inspected on arrival. If there is excessive wear or any damage caused during the trial, an additional deduction may apply.

• Customers are responsible for the safe return and packaging of the stirrups. Please keep all original packaging until you decide whether to keep them, as this helps prevent damage in transit.

• If you would prefer to exchange the trial pair for a brand-new set of the same model, we can arrange this. The exchange will be processed once the trial fee is paid and stock is available.

• We are unable to offer the Stirrup Bank service internationally.

• If you would like us to provide a Royal Mail return label, we can do so for £6.00. There’s no need to pay upfront—this will simply be deducted from your refund.
