Why
Choose a Jeffries Saddle?
Why should you choose a Jeffries
saddle? The reasons are many and varied. Jeffries' saddlemakers have an absolute
minimum of five years experience and in most cases over 20 years experience.
Every saddle is started and completed by one saddlemaker to ensure consistent
craftsmanship throughout. In 1987 Jeffries acquired the famous Falcon brand to
complement its world renowned Jeffries' saddles.
Jeffries manufactures
its own spring trees, each to a design that is renowned for its excellent fit,
produced in 6-ply laminated wood to prevent distortion whilst retaining
flexibility for comfort. Jeffries also source specialist trees from Walsall
based manufacturers. The finest quality leather is prepared and finished
meticulously, providing ultimate durability and rider safety. Jeffries use
only pure new wool flock for stuffing their saddles. Some models have high
quality foam panels including the Flyover and a number of close-contact saddles.
This allows the saddle fitter to make minor adjustments and tune the saddle for
an optimum fit for the horse. Further adjustments can be made throughout the
life of the saddle should the horse or pony change shape.
The comfort of
the rider is ensured with maximum-density foam for saddle seats and knee-pads,
whilst saddle flaps are carefully raced to ensure that stitching is in a channel
and protected from abrasion, prolonging life and reducing wear.
The
durability and longevity of a saddle depends on putting back the natural oils
that are lost during use and exposure to weather. Jeffries natural
Leathercare helps to retain the tensile strength and suppleness essential
for safe and comfortable riding.
The beauty of Jeffries' saddlery is not
just skin deep. Its what lies beneath the surface that makes a Jeffries saddle
so special.
