Custom Made:
Here you can configure your own individual Worker-PADDLE® to your own specifications. A wide range of options is available:
The Worker-PADDLE® is a special variant of our PADDLE®, designed to meet the particular demands of Working Equitation. It is characterised from the outset by a dressage-oriented Seating Profile with an especially deep seat and extra-short Saddle Flaps. This allows the rider to maintain an upright position with maximum contact with the horse. The particularly deep seat gives the rider a secure seating feeling in dynamic moments and ensures a close connection between horse and rider even in the fast Speedtrail or when working with cattle.
For the perfect seating feeling you can put together your desired combination from various sizes and Knee Roll shapes. You can select your personal favourites from Smooth Leather or suede in a wide variety of colours, from different Edgings, stitch colours and patches. You can also choose from a variety of materials and colours for the billet straps and equip the PADDLE® with additional accessories such as D-rings or a stirrup hanger.
Note: Our PADDLE® products are crafted with great care by hand in our saddlery in Bosnia-Herzegovina. The individual bespoke production of each configured PADDLE® requires the greatest care and, depending on the selected additional options, a correspondingly generous production window. The production capacity for these custom orders is limited, so we reserve the right to adjust delivery times in line with the current order situation.
Purchasing a PADDLE® custom order constitutes goods specially manufactured to customer specifications. As a result, the statutory 14-day right of withdrawal for contracts concluded online is extinguished. This also applies if the ordered goods have not yet been produced. The product will be sent to you by post upon completion and does not include an on-site fitting service. For this we recommend using our PADDLE® Fitting System in combination with our video guides for easy adjustment directly on the horse.
Horse
The PADDLE® offers the horse a perfect combination of fit and comfort. The anatomical cut and flexible construction ensure the PADDLE® conforms harmoniously to the natural curvature of the horse’s back. The V-girthing, which attaches below the spine, minimises pressure on the sensitive area of the spine and provides additional relief.
The infinitely adjustable gullet plate has been adopted from our Custom Made Saddles. It allows the gullet width to be changed infinitely and as often as desired in an instant with a 12 mm key, so that the PADDLE® can be adapted at any time to a wide variety of horse types.
The Velcro Pads with individually shaped soft-foam cushions, with their shock-absorbing effect, ensure optimal pressure distribution and true spinal clearance. The rider’s weight is thus distributed gently and evenly, preventing uncomfortable pressure points and allowing the horse a free and pleasant movement experience. This carefully considered design contributes significantly to the health and wellbeing of your horse, allowing it to move more freely without being hindered by uncomfortable pressure. In your individual configuration you can choose the ideal padding thickness for your horse.
Rider
For the rider, the PADDLE® opens up a new dimension of riding experience. Through its comfortable padding it combines comfort with the feeling of sitting particularly close to the horse. The option of using stirrups provides additional safety and versatility, so the rider feels well supported in every situation.

We would be happy to come to your stable for an on-site appointment to test and try out our PADDLE® with you and your horse. This way, you can test our different models in a relaxed atmosphere at home on your horse, and our saddle experts will also be there to assist you in choosing the right PADDLE®. You can conveniently sign up through our online form. "Registration for Saddle Fitting". There is also the opportunity to try out the different PADDLE® products and receive advice at all trade shows where we are exhibitors.
The rental of a riding pad or PADDLE® for an extended testing period is possible for various models. Under the menu item Mietprodukte find all products that can be conveniently tested at home for an extended period. The rental fees can be credited towards the purchase with an amount of up to €350. More detailed information and the terms and conditions can be found in the respective rental product.
Of course, when purchasing through our online shop, you have the right to withdraw within 14 days. This means you may carefully test the riding pad or PADDLE® on your horse. We ask that you protect the item from horse hair or dirt during the fitting. If you are unable to return the product we sent you in whole or in part, or only in a deteriorated condition, you may be required to provide compensation for the value. This does not apply if the deterioration of the item is solely due to its examination, as you would have been able to do in a retail store. Furthermore, you can avoid the obligation to compensate for value by not using the items as if they were your own and by refraining from anything that would impair their value.
Note: When purchasing a custom paddle, it is a product specifically made according to customer specifications. As a result, the statutory 14-day right of withdrawal for contracts concluded online is void. This applies even if the ordered product has not yet been produced. The product will be sent to you by mail after completion and does not include on-site adjustment service. We recommend using our paddle fitting system in combination with our video tutorials for easy adjustment directly on the horse.
The size of our riding pads & PADDLE® is based on the rider's clothing size. The seat profile allows the rider to have a relaxed and centrally positioned seat when the size is appropriate.
- The size S is recommended for clothing sizes between 34-36
- The size M is recommended for a clothing size of 38-40
- The size L is recommended for a dress size of 42-46
If the seat area is too small, the rider (especially with the rising seat profile of the Dressage riding pad and the PADDLE®) would not only sit uncomfortably but also exert unnecessary pressure on the rising seat profile and cantle, thereby unnecessarily increasing the pressure in the rear area of the horse's back.
The Velcro cushions recommended for the riding pad and the Velcro cushions included with the PADDLE® are designed in terms of size, length, and shape to provide an optimal and even pressure distribution on the horse's back for the seat size. The Velcro cushions are intentionally made slightly longer than the actual seating area of the riding pad or PADDLE® to allow for a gentle pressure distribution without pressure peaks, especially in the edge areas and at the rear end of the padding.
The pressure on the horse's back is primarily transmitted to the horse in the seat area. Since our riding pads and the PADDLE® do not have a fixed saddle tree that stabilizes the Velcro cushions in the rear area all the way to the end, the effect of the Velcro cushions in the rear area can be compared to that of a padded saddle blanket. With the size of the Velcro cushions we recommend, uncomfortable pressure peaks in the sensitive lumbar region of the horse's back are avoided even on particularly short horses. However, if too short Velcro cushions are used, the well-intentioned and desired effect of relieving the horse's back in the rear area can be reversed - if the cushions are shorter than the seat itself, the leverage of the rider's weight on the cantle of the riding pad/PADDLE® transmits pressure much more pointwise to the end of the Velcro cushion, unnecessarily overloading the horse's back.
Whether it's smooth leather, suede, or synthetic leather – each material has its advantages.
Smooth leather is a gift from nature. Smooth leather is ideal for people who value natural elegance and a distinctive appearance. It impresses with its robust durability and develops a characteristic patina over time, giving the material individuality.
Suede is the perfect choice if you prefer a velvety-soft texture and a matte, natural look. Its brushed surface gives it a lively and unique appearance, and it develops a distinctive patina with regular use.
Faux leather, whether as smooth leather or suede imitation, offers a flawless, uniform appearance without visible irregularities, making it particularly modern and versatile. It is easy to care for and durable, making it ideal for intensive use.
For an even easier overview of the properties of the different materials, we have written a blog article to assist you in making a decision.
For the best possible pressure distribution on the horse's back, we recommend combining our riding pads with our Velcro cushions and a saddle pad. With our PADDLE®, use is exclusively intended with the included Velcro cushions.
In this magazine article, we have put together a step-by-step guide for positioning the Velcro pads under a riding pad for you.
Here you will find a video tutorial for adjusting the PADDLE® including the correct positioning of the Velcro cushions. This can be done on the riding pad using the same principle.
When adjusting the PADDLE®, the Velcro pads and especially the headpiece should be correctly fitted to the horse.
As assistance, we have created a step-by-step guide for you. Here is the magazine article "Adjusting the PADDLE® with the Help of the Fitting System," which will help you make the adjustments on-site with just a few simple steps.
For an even easier adjustment of your paddle, we have created video instructions for you. In these, we show you the individual steps for adjusting the PADDLE® with the fitting system directly on the horse.
Our PADDLE® can be easily adjusted with just a few simple adjustments to fit a variety of horse types. The head iron built into the PADDLE® can be positioned nearly horizontally in its widest setting. The Velcro cushions are also adjustable in any position, so there is nothing preventing adaptation for particularly wide horses.
For an even easier adjustment of your PADDLE®, we have created video instructions for you. In these, we show you the individual steps for adjusting the PADDLE® with the fitting system directly on the horse. What you need to consider when adjusting the PADDLE® for particularly wide, narrow, or short horses has been compiled in another video titled "Adjustment of the PADDLE® for wide, narrow, or short horses."
Our PADDLE® can be easily adjusted with just a few hand movements to fit a variety of horse types. The head iron built into the PADDLE® can be set as narrow as any horse's body would require. The Velcro pads are also positionable in any way, so there is nothing preventing adjustments for narrow horses or horses with a high withers.
If the spinal freedom provided by the included Velcro cushions over the withers does not create sufficient wither freedom, we recommend additional padding with a sheepskin saddle pad or a sheepskin saddle pad with extra insert options.
