Flair® is like no other saddle product on the market. It is revolutionary.
Flair® is Air Flocking. Yes, the panels of your saddle are filled with air!
Flair® is a system of air bags designed to replace the flocking in all conventional saddles, new or secondhand, to provide a soft, flexible and even bearing surface without pressure points.
Fitting air bags does not require any modification to the saddle, its appearance will not change. Once fitted, Flair air bags do not need adjustment or special maintenance unless your horse changes shape. Then simple adjustment by your saddler is all that is required. Some horses develop muscle rapidly with the Flair system and have outgrown their tree size.
Flair® gives your saddle a constant flexible layer of shock absorbing air as thick as your saddle’s panel.
Flair® increases the sensitivity to aids from your lower back and seat. By removing any saddle discomfort the horse can clearly focus on your aids.
Flair®Saddles - Inside Story
Flair® is a system of four air bags which are incorporated into your existing saddle panel, two at the front, and two at the rear. Flair® air bags can be fitted to all styles of saddle i.e. Dressage, Jumping, General Purpose and Endurance etc.
The air bags surround a foam insert which makes the air displace in such a manner that the saddle panel maximises its bearing surface on the horses back.
The bags are adjusted via two valves that are fitted under the skirt of the saddle. The adjustments are made whilst the rider sits on the horse, the whole process taking a matter of minutes. The saddler is able to balance the saddle perfectly both side to side and front to back even if the horse has uneven muscle development.
In 3 years of trials, the performance of all horses using the product has improved.
