Arabian saddle which is also called an Arab saddle is designed specifically for the unique conformation of the arabian breed. According to the study, the Arabian horse has a different bone structure from other horses. They cannot rely on other forms of English saddle as any saddle because it doesn't fit to the horse well. As a result, there are company who decided to make an arabian saddle which can fit to the arabian horses. These saddles have a shorter skirts to fit the shorter, broader backs of the Arabian horses. The gullets of these Arabian saddles are made with bars that are shorter, set wider and have have a bit more curve that are perfect for the Arabian unique conformation. With short, broad backs and low, flat withers, arab horses can sometimes be difficult to fit with a traditional western saddle with quarter horse bars. Arab saddle is a good solution for those who have problems with gullets that rub on the withers and skirts and bars that are too long and put pressure on the loins and cause chafing.
