Caring for your new saddle

May 17, 2022 3 min read

All our saddles are made to suit the job they were designed for, so we are confident that you will be happy with it. With regular care and maintenance your saddle will provide years of trouble free use.

Before you oil your new saddle, you should check that the fenders have been twisted into the correct riding position.

When your saddle is not in use, place it on stand if possible.

We recommend that you first give your saddle a light oiling with either pure Olive oil or pure Neatsfoot oil.
