Care Instructions
Using your saddle for the first time:
Premier Equine have carried out all necessary treatment processes before delivering your saddle, so you can use it as soon as you receive it. However, for optimum softness and protections, Premier Equine advise to apply a good quality leather conditioning balsam and leave for 24 hours to allow for full absorption, out of direct sunlight. Buff with a soft cloth to remove any excess.
Beware of the risk of staining white clothes, especially during the first few uses.
Store in a dry place away from direct sunlight or heat. Regularly clean your saddle and apply a good quality conditioning balsam to preserve the suppleness and colour of the leather.
Store on a saddle hook/saddle stand that provides even pressure.
Day-to-Day care:
1. Remove any dirty and debris from the surface & girth straps by wiping down your saddle with a damp, soft cloth after every use.
2. Wipe over with a dry, soft cloth to remove any excess moisture.
3. Allow the saddle to dry naturally in a well-ventilated area out of direct sunlight and heat.
4. Once dry, apply a high-quality leather balsam. Take care to not over-saturate the leather and in particular, the girth straps*.
5. Allow the saddle to dry naturally in a well ventilated area out of direct sunlight and heat.

If your saddle has come into contact with water, allow it to dry naturally out of direct sunlight or heat. Once dry, apply a high-quality leather balsam and store your saddle in a dry place.
- Do not place dirty accessories over the top of the saddle.
- Do not clean the saddle with products containing solvent or glycerine soap as these substances will damage the integrity of the saddle.
- Do not treat/grease a saddle that has not been cleaned first as this poses the risk of letting dirt penetrate the leather, damaging it.
- Please note: During the summer months, you may need to increase the frequency in which you treat your leather saddle as the sun and higher temperatures can dehydrate the leather.
- *Warning: over saturation of the leather & leather with straps can cause over-absorption which can deteriorate the leather. Do not over-saturate your saddle and girth straps.
For optimum performance and longevity: apply a high quality leather conditioning balsam at least twice a month to maintain the suppleness of the leather.
