Arena Monoflap Dressage
Finished in European leather, it is made for riders who want closer leg contact in training and competition. With less leather between your leg and your horse, your thigh rides in and behind a soft, fixed front knee support, for an enhanced close contact feeling.
The wipe-clean lining and the Arena Leather Care Pack keep looking after it simple.

Horse and Rider Technology is the epitome of comfort with the added practicality of being fully adjustable, so you and your horse are presentation perfect throughout your journey.
Size Guide
The chart shows the main measurements of the Arena Monoflap Dressage for each seat size. Use it to compare with the saddle you ride in now.
For you
- Seat size depends on your build, the length of your thigh and the riding you do, so compare with a saddle you already find comfortable.
- If you are between sizes, try both if you can, or ask your saddle fitter or retailer.
For your horse
- Fit is about comfort, balance and how your horse moves, not one number on a chart, so we would always start with a qualified saddle fitter you trust.
- The width can be changed with the EASY-CHANGE Gullet System, so you or your saddle fitter can adjust it as your horse changes shape.
Measurements are a guide only. They are rounded to the nearest 0.5 cm and then converted to inches, and the organic shape of saddlery means small differences between pieces are normal.

What is a monoflap dressage saddle?
A monoflap saddle has a single flap instead of a separate saddle flap and sweat flap. That means less leather between your leg and your horse, for a closer feel.Can I add a knee block to the Arena Monoflap Dressage?
Yes. It has a fixed front knee support, and there is the option to add a front Flexibloc for extra support.Which girth do I need?
It has long double girth points, so it takes a short girth, such as the Arena Comfort Girth (short). -

- Clean the leather with Arena Glycerine Soap to remove surface dirt and oil, let it dry, then condition it with Arena Leather Balsam.
- Both come in the Arena Leather Care Pack.
- Wipe the technical lining clean with a damp cloth.
- The CAIR cushions are never adjusted themselves, and opening the CAIR security tape voids the warranty.
