The tree in the Empire Maratha is designed for horses with medium to high withers, a wide spine and a straighter back. The Empire Maratha offers the ideal fit for optimal shoulder freedom and comfort during all movements.
The cushions have a wide chamber and because they are filled with wool they can be accurately adjusted to your horse’s back. And through the TreeClix system, the tree size can be adjusted by up to 4cm.
The Empire Maratha’s single flap gives a close contact feel. The deeper seat provides a stable and secure position without forcing you into a certain position. We offer the choice of two types of extra soft knee hocks, in different lengths, so that the curb supports you subtly without hampering you. There are several options for the length and tilt of the sweat sheet, so you we can optimize posture and seat.
The Empire Maratha is manufactured with luxurious buffalo leather as standard. Of course, there are plenty of options for personalization. Choose from patent leather, Swarovski crystals, or contrasting piping to give your saddle a unique look. Ask your saddle fitter about the additional cost for these options.
I already thought I had very fine saddles but the Empire saddles are one step more comfortable for both myself and my horses. I can ride the exercises even more finely because of even better communication with my horse. The workmanship and quality of the Empire saddles is also another step higher than I was already used to. For me, it is the Rolls Royce among saddles!
I have been riding an Empire saddle for almost 3 years now. My horse, Bombay, shows very clearly when he disagrees with something. When trying on saddles, he was equally clear.
In the end, we chose an Empire Maratha with the TreeClix system. This ensures that the tree size of my saddle can always be adjusted. My saddle offers me a lot of support while riding.
In short, for me and my horse no other saddle than an Empire saddle.
I came in contact with Empire Saddles and the TreeClix system a few years ago because I was struggling to find a well-fitting saddle for my horses. It brought much more than I ever expected and opened up a whole new dimension in the riding and movement of my horses. Recurring problems disappeared when my saddles supported biomechanically correct horse movements.
The saddles offer great comfort for both horse and rider. They allow me to sit freely and independently, but supported, which has contributed immensely to my sitting. Additionally, the TreeClix system has allowed my horses to positively develop their bodies, as it has been possible to adjust the saddle according to the changes in my horses over the years.
