For nine years, he competed in the first version of X-Perience – on the saddle that accompanied him to many victories, including Olympic gold in Paris 2024. His extensive experience with this model helped refine the new X-Perience, which he is currently competing on.

What do riders say about X-Perience?

MULTIPLE POLISH CHAMPION / ATHLETE

The X-Perience MF immediately gives a very good feel for the horse and allows the rider to work close to the back. It combines stability with great freedom of movement - it doesn't restrict the position, but helps maintain a correct seat both on the flat and over jumps. This saddle provides confidence, control, and good balance, yet still allows for active work with the seat and legs. It performs well in daily training, while also having a sporty character. I would recommend it to riders looking for close contact, stability, and precise work with the horse.

PZJ TRAINER / OWNER OF THE EQUIKA CENTRE

I had been searching for a saddle that would meet all my expectations for a long time. I tried on many models, and there were moments of doubt, as it seemed impossible to find that one perfect saddle... until I came across the Prestige X-Perience. From the very first training session, I felt a huge difference – incredible comfort, softness, and yet stability, which gave me a sense of full control and safety. However, the full adjustability to my horse was what convinced me to buy it. Finally, I see my horse moving freely, relaxed, without any signs of discomfort. His back works better, and he is more willing to cooperate – that's the greatest value for me. What's more, I decided to purchase two such saddles – for two different horses – and both meet my expectations 100%. Each of them was perfectly fitted and beautifully personalized, and I must admit that I am very demanding in this regard. This saddle is not just equipment – it's an investment in comfort, health, and the quality of our joint work. After such a long search, I can finally say with full conviction: I have found "the one."

SPORT ENGINEERING

Why X-Perience?

Show jumping is a sport of in-the-moment decisions. Combining Prestige Italia's 50 years of experience with our nearly 30 years of saddle fitting practice, we know what truly matters in a jumping saddle – here are three things horse and rider feel in the X-Perience.

01

Stability without loss of contact

X-Perience adapts not only to the horse but also to you. The wider rear seat base combined with X-Technology membranes creates a unisex effect - supporting the anatomy of various riders, including those with wider hips who find it harder to maintain close contact with the horse. Additionally, there are two seat depths, MD and MF, and three sizes to find a comfortable and stable position.

02

Space your horse needs

Your horse gains freedom of movement where it needs it most. X-Perience gives shoulder freedom and close contact, and with extensive configuration options, it can be adjusted to many horse types. Because a good saddle should support movement, not restrict it.

03

Show your sporty side

Your style, your rules. You choose the leather, colour, and finish, and we make sure the technical configuration suits you and your horse. X-Perience becomes a saddle tailored exclusively to you.

A horse won't tell you if something is limiting it.<br> It will show you in the arena.

1

Height at withers

The saddle does not touch the wither - it maintains clearance, protecting the high spinous processes from pressure and allowing the shoulder blade full range of motion.

2

Scapular mobility

The unstitched blocks at the front allow the flaps to work and the panels to follow the movement of the scapula in the drive and recovery.

3

Wide panels

All versions of the panels have a broad surface that better distributes the rider's weight on the horse's back.

4

Lower border of the last rib

The saddle should end where the last rib ends, leaving the lumbar region free.

Unleash the freedom of movement

X-Technology

Two injected membranes in the cantle of the saddle accommodate the rider's seat bones upon mounting. The result is a more comfortable, stable seat and a feeling of greater closeness with the horse.

Philosophy

At Equishop, we believe that a good saddle starts with the horse. For almost 30 years, we have been fitting them to serve the horse's health and the rider's confidence – not the other way around.

Personalization

Your style, your rules.

You choose the leather, colour, and finish that give the saddle character, and our expert will select the technical configuration for you and your horse. Size, seat depth, panels, and blocks – every element matters, which is why we leave nothing to chance. The result is an X-Perience tailored exclusively for you: a saddle that looks exactly as you want and supports you precisely where you need it.

TWO PHILOSOPHIES OF EXPERIENCE

Choose your seat depth

Every rider is different. That's why X-Perience comes in two seat depths, so you can choose the one that suits your needs.

MD

Medium Deep

Half seat

For riders looking for a more centered position. The deeper seat provides greater stability and security in the saddle.

Centered, stable position

Fuller pelvic support

Confidence over challenging distances

MF

Medium Flat

Flat average seating

For riders who value greater freedom of movement. A shallower seat allows for quicker reactions and more dynamic riding.

Greater freedom of movement in the saddle

Faster position adjustment

Dynamic, light seat

Which version you need, it's best to check with a saddle fitter - the difference in depth really changes the balance during the push-off and landing phases.

FAQ

Answers to frequently asked questions about the X-Perience saddle

What is X-Technology in the X-Perience saddle?

This Prestige Italia solution is used in the tree. Two injected membranes in the back of the tree, in the area of the rider's ischial bones, increase riding comfort and stability, as well as the feeling of closeness to the horse. This is not the same as AS-X - X-Perience does not have an adaptive joint.

How do the MD and MF seats in the X-Perience saddle differ?

MD (medium deep) means a deeper seat, for a more centered, "seated" position. MF (medium flat) is flatter and allows for greater freedom of movement. The difference genuinely changes the balance during take-off and landing - that's why it's best to choose the depth with a saddle fitter.

How to care for an X-Perience saddle?

A saddle made of calfskin requires regular cleaning and oiling with dedicated leather care products. It is advisable to avoid aggressive cosmetics, as they can damage the leather and cause the saddle to lose its colour. The frequency of care depends on the conditions of use and the intensity of training, which is why a saddle used more often and in harsher conditions requires more frequent care. Periodic fitting checks by a saddle fitter are also recommended, as a horse's back changes with training, diet, and age.

For which rider is X-Perience for?

For riders who seek a stable seat and close contact. With two seat depths, a wider base, and a unisex design, it suits various rider body types – including those with wider hips.

For what kind of horse is X-Perience?

With five panel versions and a gullet width range of 31 to 37, the X-Perience offers extensive customization options to suit different horse anatomies. Whether and in which configuration it fits a specific horse is determined by a saddle fitter's measurement and assessment.

How can I test a Prestige saddle?

You can test a Prestige saddle in two ways. The first is a visit with our saddle fitting expert to your stable, during which you will receive a consultation and check the saddle's fit for both horse and rider on site. The second way is to rent a saddle for a 7-day trial after paying a deposit, allowing you to calmly assess the saddle in your daily work with your horse before making a purchase decision.

How to choose the size and depth of the seat in X-Perience?

Seat size (16", 17", 18"), depth (MD/MF), panels, blocks and gullet width are selected by the saddle fitter during the visit – to match the rider's build, their needs and the horse's morphology. These variables cannot be accurately determined from a description.

Is the X-Perience saddle covered by a warranty?

Yes. The tree is covered by a lifetime warranty from the manufacturer Prestige Italia, and the leather by a 2-year warranty. Please note that fitting and wear parts, such as the wool flocking of the panels, require periodic servicing and are not covered by the warranty – this is a natural part of saddle use. Equishop provides full after-sales support and service so you can enjoy your saddle for years.
