Wintec Saddles was launched in 1986 and is a saddle brand known for the first synthetic saddles.[1][2]

History[]

The company is a subsidiary of Saddlery Brands International.[3] (formerly Bates Australia), originally established in 1934,[4]

Saddles[]

The Easy Change Gullet System was designed in 1998 to help custom fit a saddle to a horse’s withers, maintaining clearance of the wither as the horse’s shape changes.[5] and help maintain a good saddle fit [6]

The CAIR Panel System, an air filled panel, was developed in 2000 as an alternative to the traditional flocking in saddles, and helps to evenly distribute the rider’s weight.[7][8] [9]

Major Affiliations[]

Wintec Saddles is the Official Saddle of the American Riding Instructors Association[10] and the US Pony Clubs[11]
