Checkers anyone?

My thanks to the reader that sent me this. To me the pattern almost seems to move of its own accord. Most unsettling, not to mention terribly Tacky.

  2. I don't know how "well made" the saddle is but I like the pattern. When you are in the seat some of that will disappear.

  3. H, that depends on how big your ass is. And if your justification to using this saddle is that your ass is big enough to cover it... Well, I'm just not sure that's a very flattering argument. :o)

  5. It seriously looks like it is woven out of straw. Yikes that is really ugly and cheap looking. I promise my ass wouldn't cover enough of it to make acceptable.

  6. That is without doubt THE ugliest attempt at a saddle I've ever seen.

    Seriously, what were they thinking.

    Useful I suppose if you want to hide in the Sahara or something but wouldn't the 500kg animal wearing it give you away?
    (maybe it comes with a matching top to toe blanket to cover up said beast?)

    EPIC FAIL !!!!

  7. I've heard of 'basket saddles' (Hint, they used to put very little kids in them to ride. With seat belts).

    But that....is ridiculous.

  9. I was the one that found that saddle. And if anyone else wants a saddle like that, send me your current saddle and your color choice Sharpie marker!! :)
