    Why buy a saddle from Equijump Ltd?

    Equijump Ltd is Ireland's official distributor for both CWD and Butet - two of the most respected saddle makers in the sport. Every saddle we sell is built to order or sourced direct from the manufacturer, and we offer professional saddle fitting to make sure the saddle works for both horse and rider. Whether you are competing at international level or schooling at home, the right saddle makes a measurable difference to balance, security and your horse's freedom of movement.

    Our saddle brands

    CWD saddles are engineered in Nontron, France, with a focus on close contact and even pressure distribution. The range covers jumping, hunter and cross-country disciplines, with models like the 2Gs, SE02 and SE03 each designed around a different rider position and jumping style. The CWD 2Gs Mademoiselle offers a female-focused ergonomic design, while the iJump integrates real-time feedback on position and balance for high-level training. Butet saddles are handmade in Saumur using vegetable-tanned leather and a minimalist design philosophy - light, close to the horse and built to last. Both brands offer calfskin and grain leather options.

    Choosing the right saddle

    Start with discipline - a jumping saddle has a forward flap and supportive blocks, while a cross-country saddle typically sits you deeper with a more secure knee roll. Next, consider seat size (measured from the nail head to the cantle centre), flap length (matched to your femur) and tree width (matched to your horse's wither and back shape). Our team also provides guidance on pairing your saddle with matching girthsmartingales and reins for full tack integration. If you are unsure where to start, our fitting consultation will guide you through each measurement.

    Saddle fitting

    A saddle that does not fit correctly restricts movement, causes discomfort and can lead to long-term back problems for your horse. We offer saddle fitting consultations where we assess rider measurements alongside photos of your horse's back and wither profile. From there we recommend the right model, tree configuration and panel setup. We accommodate everything from finely built ponies to broad-chested Irish Draughts. Contact us to book a fitting or to discuss your requirements.
