Chris is back from a very quick week's trip to the UK, attending the launch of the new GFS Premier range of saddles. It was a great opportunity to see the latest range and spend time with some UK-based saddle fitters and, of course, the GFS team of saddle makers and designers. The new GFS Premier range will be in stock in late February. With some exciting new additions to the popular, very versatile and affordable range of English saddles from GFS. A warm thanks to the incredible hospitality from Geoff Fieldhouse and Team GFS, with a special shout-out to Janelle 😊.

Junior Sponsored Rider, the lovely Belsham Equestrian rides her 8yr old horse Darcy in an Erreplus Connect. "I loved this saddle the moment I sat in it (like putting on your favourite pair of jeans). I get Chris to refit it once or twice a year as Darcy continues to grow and develop."
