RARE 17" Collegiate Connoisseur Jumping Saddle Millers Olympic Commemorative RD
Estimated price for orientation: 600 $
Category: Saddles
Class:
Description Model: Connoisseur Brand: Collegiate Color: Brown Saddle Size: 17" Country/Region of Manufacture: Argentina Saddle Type: Jumping/Close Contact
Super Rare!!!! This is the officially licensed Collegiate Connoisseur Jumping Saddle that Miller's offered to commemorate the 1996 Olympics in Atlanta. They introduced the Crosby Centennial (it was the 100-year anniversary of the modern Olympics) for the Olympics and this saddle was the Collegiate version. Those of you who may remember, Millers used to offer both a Crosby and a Collegiate version for most of their saddles. Features Olympic Rings, USET Stamp, and more. Like all Ruiz Diaz-made Collegiate Saddles, this Medium tree fits just about every horse in the barn. The 17" seat rides beautifully. The saddle is safe, sound, and ready to ride in. The only flaw is scratching on the seat. The seat IMO, rides a touch small. If you are a 16.5"/17" rider, this should fit you; sadly, I'm on the 17"/17.5" edge and it's just a touch too small for me. I'd happily trade for the same saddle (or the Centennial with Olympic Rings) in a 17.5". Flap is 13" Thanks.
