The DP Saddlery El Campo is DP Saddlery's flagship Baroque model, renowned for providing a deep, secure seat with the flexibility to customize your support.

This saddle is the gold standard for riders seeking a deep, supportive seat combined with the exceptional fit of the Ultra-Flex tree. A key feature of the El Campo is its ability to adapt to the rider: unlike older traditional saddles, it features adjustable Velcro knee blocks, allowing you to position your thigh support exactly where you need it or remove it completely for a freer feel.

How is this model different?

• The Standard: This is the base model featuring a clean, classic look without the extra soft knee padding on the flap.

• Velcro Knee Blocks: Features anatomically shaped blocks attached via strong Velcro under the flap. You decide the angle and placement.

• Standard Length: Designed for horses with average to long backs.

Ideal Horse Conformations

• Back Shape: Best suited for Broad, Flat, "Tabletop" Backs (e.g., Haflingers, wide Quarter Horses, Friesians, Draft crosses). The flatter bar profile prevents rocking on these builds.

• Build: Highly versatile for Average to Very Wide horses due to the adjustable gullet.
