We’re proud to say that WOW Saddles are made in Britain at our workshop just outside the historic city of Canterbury, Kent.

We don't mass-produce, we don't outsource, we craft all our products here in the UK, employing local staff, contributing to the economy, and keeping quality at the forefront.

A special WOW for a special pony 💞

This beauty of a WOW Competitor with endurance flaps and western style fenders came together perfectly for a sweet little Fjord cross and his owner, with the help of our WOW colleague Eva at Happy Back Riding in Ontario.

No matter the discipline, preference, shape, style, or level of complicated-but-cute pony bod, there’s probably a Wow for that 🫶🏻

Okay, we admit it, the saddles we produced 20 years ago with the resin trees were heavier than some other saddles, but to give them their due, there's a lot of them still being used today!

It's a testament to the quality of construction that has always been at the heart of how WOW saddles are made.

But we never rest on our laurels and each generation of our saddles have got lighter and lighter.

That being said...a saddle that distributes the rider's weight over the maximum healthy surface area will always serve your horse better than one chosen by weight alone, and that's where WOW excels.

We've written a blog about this, so check the comments for the link.

When comparing saddles, it's tempting to focus on the number on the scale, lighter means better right? Not always the case... and *whispers* almost irrelevant when compared to how much a rider's weight can fluctuate.

The bigger conversation that can get overlooked is how that weight (and the riders) is distributed which makes all the difference to your horse's comfort, movement, and long-term health.
