Olympia Jumping Saddle

OLVENIQ Saddlery — handcrafted in the European Union

Our jumping line begins from the landing, not the take-off — the Olympia pairs a shock-absorbing panel with a seat so close you feel the stride change before it happens.

The leather is selected hide by hide from a single family-run tannery in Tuscany, vegetable-tanned over six weeks and finished by hand until it develops the deep, quiet lustre that no accelerated process can imitate. Our saddlers cut every panel along the natural grain, so the piece breaks in gracefully and grows more beautiful with each season of use.

Design & Craftsmanship

• V-system billets in English bridle butt for an even, stable girthing line
• Signature old-gold nameplate, individually numbered
• Full-grain Tuscan calfskin seat and flaps with English bridle-leather skirts
• Covered calf-leather blocks, repositionable via concealed hook-and-loop plates
• Wool-flocked panels shaped on the bench, allowing millimetre-precise fitting and future adjustment
• Edges skived, folded and edge-painted by hand — no raw cuts anywhere on the saddle
• Dual-density latex-and-wool panel absorbing landing forces

Care

Wipe dust and sweat after each use with a barely damp cloth, then feed the leather monthly with the OLVENIQ Leather Balsam. Keep away from direct heat, allow wet leather to dry naturally, and store on a shaped rack or padded hook. Treated with respect, this piece will serve for decades and acquire a patina unique to your stable.

Questions, Answered

How do I know my seat size?
Your fitter will confirm it, but as guidance: most riders take 17" or 17.5"; longer thigh or a preference for a roomier seat suggests 18".
