Description
A beautifully designed complete dressage saddle built on a flexible tree which was designed by EDIX. The saddle is made of soft and supple high quality calf leather and soft “soft leather” panels flocked with wool. A mono flap was chosen for a close leg contact. The EDIX Ishya offers a wide channel for correct pressure and plenty of room for free spinal movement. The high thigh block can be adjusted and positioned perfectly based on the needs of the rider and a choice of long or short thigh blocks is available. The different available thigh blocks can simply be interchanged and repositioned by means of a screw system.
The panels are flocked standard with synthetic wool but can be re-flocked with 100% sheep wool by request at the EDIX facility. The panels will be flocked soft and supple and will include additional material to allow an EDIX saddle fitter/dealer to either or adjust the panels to achieve a more favourable density when needed.
In comparison to the other EDIX saddles, the Ishya is built on a flexible tree made of PBP (Plastic Blended Polymer), a very flexible, light weight synthetic material. Because the tree has a very unique form it is recommended that the panels are selected carefully based on the horse’s requirements. Besides the standard Ishya panels EDIX also has a variety of different panels which all can be used under the Ishya, and can all be attached by the saddle fitter or ordered standard directly from the factory. As such, the EDIX Ishya can always be guaranteed to fit different horses. When the horse changes shape due to training, growth or age and the originally purchased panels don’t fit anymore, you will have the ability to replace the old panels with new ones to refit the saddle to the horse.

EDIX recommends this saddle is purchased after a consultation with one of the EDIX dealers. The saddle has 2 different options for panel type and 2 different options for thigh block length. An EDIX dealer will be able to help you decide which panel type is best for the horse and which thigh blocks will fit your legs the best. The EDIX dealer will be able to adjust and verify the ultimate thigh block position.
To ensure a constant stable saddle position we recommend the EDIX anatomic or crescent partial elastic girth. The durable elasticity protects the girth straps and the other connections in your saddle and is tailored to adjust to the varying abdominal circumferences of the horse while riding. Since these girths are made up of 3 parts, they allow for constant even tension by allowing the elastic to contract and expand with the movement of the horse, keeping the saddle stable and in place without limiting the horse’s chest muscle movement.
