The flap is the leather panel on the side of the saddle, with the saddle buttons visible on its outer surface. Its seam follows the outline from near the seat down the rear edge and along the lower edge towards the front. The repair covers this length of stitching, not just a single point. The seam flexes with every ride and can wear over time, particularly on heavily used or second-hand saddles. Repairs are carried out at Equishop Service Centre, ul.

Continued riding can make it worse and cause the leather to flex differently from the manufacturer's intended design, making later repairs harder. After restitching, clean and condition the leather regularly; dry leather can crack around stitching. Do not dry the saddle beside a heater or in direct sunlight, and avoid DIY repairs with unsuitable thread, as uneven stitching can stretch the original stitch holes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHow does flap restitching work?\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003col\u003e\u003cli\u003eOrder online and select One side or Both sides.\u003c\/li\u003e\u003cli\u003eBring your saddle to Equishop Service Centre, ul.
