We have imported from France Macel Samba and Macel Rafale saddles for UK horse riders to try before buying. We have two models, the Samba S, a dressage saddle that could be used for endurance and the Rafale S, a jump saddle based on the Samba tree used by event riders and show jumpers.
Both saddles are monoflap models, but traditional two flap saddles can be ordered. Every saddle is custom made either as a clone of one of our demo saddles, or from measurements taken when we visit. Every customer can choose colours for leather stitching. View the saddle styles and colours on the Macel website.
Macel Samba S saddle
dressage
The Samba S saddle is for pure dressage in the purest sense of the word, a saddle without any constraints whatsoever for the pelvis or legs and allowing the rider to be seated as close to the horse as is at all possible for total technique and complete freedom.
– Unique MACEL design with S innovation
– Seat : flat, sizes 16″ to 18,5″
– Single flap, calfskin leather lined
– V strap girthing system
Macel Rafale S saddle
jumping
The ‘S’ technical innovation means that the Rafale S saddle offers riders a show jumping saddle which is both technically advanced and comfortable yet with high precision contact with the horse. The S model has all the advantages of the Rafale, yet is even closer to the horse.
– Unique MACEL design with S innovation
– Seat : flat, sizes 16″ to 18,5″
