The X-D1 Zero model will occupy the top slot for the performance it provide. The saddle offer improved close contact thanks to greater proximity to the horse. At the same time there is greater comfort because the seat is even softer. The result obtained is an appreciable reduction in panel thickness. At the same time stability is ensured and the horse feels comfortable along its back. No change has been made to any of the other technical features.
X – Technology has been able to offer riders the required closeness while fully ensuring due consideration for horses and their wellbeing. With the new version of X-D1 closeness to the horse has been obtained not by resorting to an extreme twist, by lengthening the tree supports, or by shifting the centre gravity rearwards on the seat – all of which solutions can harm the horse – but through deft adjustments to the frames suggested by a close study of human anatomy.
The X-D1 range comes with big blocks, special panels for shoulder freedom, narrower twist and a +2cm forward flap is also available on request. Trapezium Pad included.
Price listed for Calfskin option (X-D1 D), the saddle is also available in Lux Leather (X-D1 Anniversary Lux) and both leathers are available in a monoflap (X-D1 D K and X-D1 K Anniversary Lux), please contact the office to order

X-Prestige Helen The Prestige Helen saddle has been developed for the German champion Helen Langehanenberg. The new tree is deeper than with any other Prestige model and it enables the rider to “sit deep” in the seat but without hampering the horse’s movement. Its elastic membranes, positioned in the area of the ischia, make the seat extremely soft. The panels, too, are new and are made of a honeycomb structure material combined with a soft spongy fabric. These panels, with their anatomical shape, afford the utmost freedom of movement to the muscles of the trapezius. The Prestige Helen is available with the following seat sizes: 16”-17”-18”. The withers channel ranges between 29 and 37.
The X-Prestige Helen is now available also in a single-flap version. The saddle, identified by the initial “K”, will be fully lined with oiled supple calfskin (Version “D”) or lined with “lux” leather. This variety of leather has been tanned applying natural processes, and stands out for a suppleness typical of calfskin combined with the resilience of leather. The anatomically-shaped blocks attached to the panels provide the rider with the best possible support, instantly positioning his or her legs in the right position without, however, restricting their movement.
Technically, the saddle is otherwise unchanged. The ultra-deep tree allows the rider to sink down within the seat, though without hampering his or her movements. X-TECHNOLOGY is still part of the saddle specification. Its elastic membranes, fitted in the region of the ischia, continue to make the seat extremely soft. The panels retain their innovative features as well as the combination of honeycomb-type material and soft terry cloth. Anatomically shaped, these panels ensure the fullest freedom of movement to the muscles of the trapezius. Prestige’s Helen K saddle is remarkable for its exceptional lightness: just 5.35 Kg. It is available in seat sizes 16”-17”- 18” and with a withers channel ranging between 29 and 37.
Price listed for smooth leather option, the X-Prestige Helen is also available in Lux and Calfskin (D) leather. The Lux and Calfskin (D) options are also available in monoflap as the X-Prestige Helen K. Please contact the office for further information, prices and to place an order.

The DOGE Dressage saddles have been updated. The changes affect their design, now more appealing, and their technical characteristics. The most important novelty concerns the tree. It features X-TECHNOLOGY which, for the first time, has three elastic membranes. The two rear membranes are positioned near the rider’s ischia while the front one is close to the pubic area. The whole assembly provides the rider with excellent comfort.
The seat is extremely deep and thanks to X-TECHNOLOGY an “in-out” effect is obtained that never impedes the rider in his/her movements. The panels are entirely new, free (not integrated with the underflaps), and fit perfectly with horses’ differing anatomies. They have an anatomic form and afford greater freedom of movement to the horse’s shoulders and to the trapezius muscle.
The greater flatness of the panels about their centre ensures that the saddle is more stable, while the bearing surface is broader giving better weight distribution. They are fitted with X-TECHNOLOGY, comprising a honeycomb elastic membrane and a layer of soft rubber that replace the use of felt to give additional “close contact”. Both the rider and the horse enjoy greater comfort and, as a result, they function better as a team.
The X-Doge comes with smooth leather as standard, medium knee blocks (big on request) and special thinner panels for a closer contact. Also available with +2cm forward cut flap on request.

Prestige unveils its new ultra-light dressage saddle, the X-Breath Dressage. What immediately catches the eye is the large cut-out section of the seat. This centrally positioned oval hole performs the following dual function: a ventilation function to ensure better air circulation, so keeping the horse and the rider cool a therapeutic function: the anatomically shaped aperture assists protection of the coccyx. This hole is covered by a special ultra-elastic 3D material that adds to the comfort of the seat. There are other holes and apertures in the flaps and underflaps and these lighten the weight and improve ventilation.
The panels feature X-TECHNOLOGY: a honeycomb elastic membrane and a layer of soft rubber that replace the use of felt to secure a substantial reduction in the thickness of the panels so enhancing the “close contact” effect and at the same time enabling greater stability and comfort for the horse’s back. No sooner are you seated on the X-BREATH DRESSAGE than you instantly feel at ease and it is as though you have always been using it. Sensitivity is optimised: the saddle transmits even the slightest movements of the horse and it picks up every single signal from it.
Price listed for X-Breath Dressage D which is the calfskin option, the X-Breath Dressage is also available in the Lux leather option (soft like calfskin but more robust) and Cuoio leather option (smooth leather) please contact the office to order

Prestige Roma Dressage
A new dressage saddle. Thanks to its large blocks and its anatomical knee pads, Roma Dressage is a saddle suited both to riders first starting dressage and to accomplished performers in the discipline. The seat, which is soft and deep, enables the legs to fit snugly about the horse, giving increased contract when the pelvis is retroverted. Its flat thin panels are a new design concept and make for greater closeness to the horse while ensuring it the fullest comfort. Roma Dressage features calfskin on the seat and knee pads and it has compensating V-shaped rear girth straps to make it more stable on the horse’s back.
The tree in Prestige saddles has been designed to adapt perfectly to the horse and to maintain the best seat for the rider. Made of a special mix of fibres, it is at least 1 kg lighter than traditional saddles and needs no metal reinforcement. This saddle has advantages over those made of natural materials, like wood. Though wood is elastic, it still has “life” in it. For this reason as atmospheric conditions change and the years go by the characteristics of the wood change, becoming less stable and less resistant. The Prestige tree, on the other hand, was purpose designed to provide the same elasticity as one made of wood while, at the same time, ensuring maximum stability over time. It is no chance matter that it offers a lifetime’s guarantee, except in the case of an accident. In addition, the width of Prestige saddles can always be altered to fit the ever changing shape of the horse by narrowing or widening the tree where required without taking the saddle apart. For this reason, even when the horse changes shape the product remains usable.
The Roma Dressage comes with smooth leather, a deep seat and big front blocks as standard. Alternative flap lengths are available on request, please contact the office for more details.
