Size Guide
The chart shows the main measurements of the Arena Pony General Purpose for each seat size. Use it to compare with the saddle your young rider uses now.
For your young rider
- Seat size depends on their build, the length of their thigh and the riding they do, so compare with a saddle they already find comfortable.
- If they are between sizes, try both if you can, or ask your saddle fitter or retailer.
For your pony
- Fit is about comfort, balance and how your pony 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 pony 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.
-
Do pony saddles need a different riser pack?
Yes. Pony saddles use the EASY-CHANGE Riser System: Pony/Jump Pack. The Standard Pack and Standard Starter Pack are not suitable.Will this saddle fit a broad pony?
It adjusts across the standard EASY-CHANGE gullet range. For a broader pony, the Arena Pony Cob General Purpose uses the EASY-CHANGE Gullet System WIDE, and a saddle fitter can tell you which suits.What does the warranty cover?
The tree has a 10-year warranty and materials and workmanship have two years. Claims go through your retailer, with your receipt and warranty card. -
Approximate weight: 4.6 kg/10.1 lb. Weights vary a little by size and options. Fitted with a Medium (black) EASY-CHANGE gullet. The EASY-CHANGE Gullet System: Complete Kit, EASY-CHANGE Riser System: Pony/Jump Pack and EASY-CHANGE Gullet Gauge are available separately, as are a girth and stirrup leathers. 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.
-
- 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.
