Why Choose a Butet Saddle?
Since 1986, Butet has been the gold standard for riders seeking a minimalist, elegant design that doesn't get in the way of the horse. Key features include:
-
The Signature "Close Contact" Feel: Butet’s thin panels allow for unparalleled communication between horse and rider.
-
Customizable Seat Depths: Choose from the "P" (Flat) seat for ultimate freedom of movement, the "L" (Half-Deep) for a balanced ride, or the "M" (Semi-Deep) for added security.
-
Handcrafted Quality: Every saddle is made in Saumur, France, using vegetable-tanned leather that only gets better with age.
