Rated 5.0 out of 5
Horses change shape through the year, from spring grass to a season of fitness work or a winter off. The EASY-CHANGE Gullet Gauge makes keeping up easy.
On very close contact models, your saddle fitter may recommend going one to two sizes closer than the gauge suggests.
It works with both the EASY-CHANGE Gullet System and the EASY-CHANGE Gullet System WIDE, giving you a starting point for choosing a gullet and a simple way to keep an eye on your horse's shape over time.

Which gullet comes fitted in my saddle?
Most Wintec saddles come with a medium (black) gullet. High Wither models come with a medium narrow (green), and WIDE models come with a 2XW.Does the gauge give me the final gullet size?
No. It gives you a starting point, and the right gullet is confirmed when you fit it and check how the saddle sits on your horse's back. -
Standard saddles take six gullets, colour-coded by size: narrow 210 mm, medium narrow 220 mm, medium 230 mm, medium wide 240 mm, wide 245 mm and extra wide 255 mm. Each is measured across the inside at its widest point, with a 3 mm tolerance either way. These are for reference, not for fitting. To find the right gullet for your horse, use the EASY-CHANGE Gullet Gauge and the advice of your saddle fitter. WIDE saddles take four gullets: 1XW 255 mm, 2XW 270 mm, 3XW 280 mm and 4XW 295 mm.

We take care with our photos, but the saddles and gear in our lifestyle shots won't always be the exact product on this page. Some are there to show off a feature, like being weatherproof or easy to clean.
The product photos and description are the best guide to what you're buying. If you're not sure, just get in touch and we'll check for you.
