Wintec Kids
A synthetic saddle built for a first rider, and for the mud that comes with one.

Like every Wintec saddle, it is easy-care and weatherproof, so it can be hosed off after a muddy day and go straight back on tomorrow.
Pair it with Wintec Kids Webbers, made for little legs, and Wintec Kids Cage Stirrups for secure foot placement.
In-built safety handle | Movable foam panels | Easy-care and weatherproof

What is in the box?
Your saddle. This model has a fixed gullet, so there is no gullet plate to choose or change.
Fit is about comfort, balance and performance rather than any single number, so we would always start with a saddle fitter you trust. If you are close to buying and want the detail, a measurement diagram is the last image in the gallery above. The measurements provided are intended as a guide only. Due to the organic shape of equestrian products and the inherent subjectivity of the measuring process, slight variations may occur. We have made every effort to ensure accuracy, rounding measurements to the nearest 0.5 cm and then converted to inches. Please consider these figures as close approximations rather than exact values.
