Holly Wade saddles are unique. There are three different saddle-trees that fit three different types of horse’s backs. The rider’s position in the saddle is balanced and natural, allowing their leg to fall directly under their seat for stability and perfect balance. The design of the tree and the rounded skirt of the saddle provide freedom in the loin area of the horse. The bars in front of the saddle are sculpted up and away from the scapula of the horse’s shoulder allowing great freedom of movement. The rider’s weight is distributed equally along the muscle on both sides of the horse’s spine.
The unique saddle tree design was fashioned from a combination of the old McKlelan army saddle and the Passier dressage saddle. After three years of development and test riding on many horses, with many different riders, Moon Run is pleased to present “The Holly Wade”.

The McCall Lady Wade- This saddle was developed by Brighton saddlery and fits the wide backed, mutton withered Quarter Horse’s. It has the same balanced ride as the Holly Wade saddles, and is ideal for the wider round backed horses.

The Holly Wade #1- This saddle fits most horses with regular to high withers, with a normal back and barrel. The off the shoulder bars offer complete freedom in the horse’s shoulder, and the unique tree design and rounded skirt gives comfort and freedom in the horse’s hind quarters.

The Holly Wade #2- This saddle is much like the #1 Holly Wade but is made for the more radical slab-sided thoroughbred type backs. The muscles on either side of the spine will greatly effect saddle fit. This saddle is ideal for horses with backs that do not have a lot of muscle on either side of the spine. It also allow for complete freedom in the horse’s shoulder. There is a large movement in most thoroughbred and warmblood horses, and this saddle facilitates large shoulder movement.

To insure proper fit for horse and rider please call Holly McLain for a free saddle fitting and ordering options.
