Before you buy a new saddle, determine your leg and seat measurements. A 16-inch saddle is fine if your leg length is short. A longer leg length should not exceed 17 inches. A 17-inch saddle is possible for those with a longer leg. A larger size seat should be between 18-19inches. Remember, the pad should be at minimum one-inch larger than the saddle size.

Before buying a saddle, you need to the horse's size. A standard-sized saddle will fit an average-sized pony. For larger horses, a saddle may have a wider gullet.

To get the exact measurement, consult your trainer.

To find the right saddle size for your horse, you should first determine its conformation. It is important to scan your horse side-to-side, as well as front to back. A horse with narrow withers may require extra padding behind the saddle bars. A shoulder bridge pad can be purchased to ensure a perfect fit. A medium-to wide tree is adequate for the average-to-large withered horse. A horse with average or flat withers needs a wider tree.

If you are in between two sizes, consider going up a size. Most saddles come in 17-inch seats. These can make saddles uncomfortable. You should also consider the type of riding you'll be doing. Saddles for leisure riding might be more comfortable and shallower than those for barrel racing and ranch work. If you're unsure, try the same measurements as men.

Western saddles come with different sizes of seats. A Western saddle seat size is about four inches longer than the seat of an average adult saddle. You may need to size up if your height is too high. A shorter rider might require a larger seat or vice versa. You will find the right size saddle for you, depending on your weight and height. Before buying a saddle, you will need to measure your height.

If you're unsure of your thighbone measurement, you should try on a few different saddles and find the one that fits your thigh bone. Western saddle seat sizes are generally one to two inches smaller than English saddles. If in doubt, increase a size. It is a good rule of thumb to measure at the saddle nail. This nail is located at the saddle's top. The seat size is located at the highest point of the saddle’s cantle.
