The Prestige X-Breath has been developed to offer a closeness, stability and comfort for the rider, whilst keeping the horses back cool and comfortable.
For the first time, Prestige presents an ultralight saddle – a saddle specially designed to facilitate greater air movement under the saddle and comfort for the rider, while still incorporating all the other innovative features of the X range.
Like all the Prestige saddles in the X range, the Prestige X-Breath has anatomically shaped panels guarantee maximum freedom of movement for the trapezius muscles. The fit of these panels gives freedom of movement while this unique design provides closeness and feel and makes the well being and comfort of the horse a top priority.
Features :
This increased airflow helps the muscles of the horse’s back to perform at their optimum level for a longer period. This unique comfort feature is provided by the large aperture in the saddle seat, which has been included to give special benefits: This oval hole is located in the centre of the seat and has a dual functions: – ventilation for better air circulation, so cooling both horse and rider – a therapeutic function, as the anatomically shaped hole relieves pressure on the coccyx. The hole is covered by a special ultra-elastic honeycomb material that increases the comfort of the seat. There are also holes on the saddle flaps and underflaps, to make for greater lightness and improved ventilation. The saddle has new ultralight panels to replace conventional stuffed panels. These panels are made of the same synthetic material as the stuffing, combined with a new honeycomb material that is highly elastic and offer significant improvements on the use of felt and foam material which can overheat, give a dead feel or cause pressure and pain. The thickness of the panels is significantly reduced. Jarring and fatigue is reduced due to the rebound qualities of the high tech materials.
This is the best sandle ever made and I loved them so much I bought a spare pair as I can't buy them any more. So disappointed that they're discontinued, a fantastic, comfortable shoe.
