When your horse’s comfort comes first, Horse and Rider Technology is essential for enjoying your time in the saddle, free from worry, and to the fullest.
Size guide
The chart shows the main measurements of the Wintec Isabell Icon for each seat size. Use it to compare with the saddle you ride in now.
For you
- Seat size depends on your build, the length of your thigh and the riding you do, so compare with a saddle you already find comfortable.
- If you are between sizes, try both if you can, or ask your saddle fitter or retailer.
For your horse
- Fit is about comfort, balance and how your horse moves, not one number on a chart, so we would always start with a qualified saddle fitter you trust.
- The width can be changed with the EASY-CHANGE Gullet System, so you or your saddle fitter can adjust it as your horse changes shape.
Measurements are a guide only. They are rounded to the nearest 0.5 cm and then converted to inches, and the organic shape of saddlery means small differences between pieces are normal.

Who developed the Wintec Isabell Icon?
It was developed with Isabell Werth, for dressage riders with serious aspirations.What does the movable overgirth do?
It wraps the saddle flap around your horse, so you get an unrestricted feel without the flap moving about under your leg.What is the seat made from?
Equi-Suede, which is soft with a little stretch and grips well even when it is wet. An Equi-Leather wear patch protects the saddle from your boots. -
Approximate weight: 6.2 kg/13.7 lb. Weights vary a little by size and options. Your saddle, fitted as standard with a medium (black) gullet. Stirrup straps and a girth are not included. Riders often add an EASY-CHANGE gullet pack so they have every width to hand, an EASY-CHANGE riser pack for adjusting panel depth, a pair of stirrup straps and a girth. Fit is about comfort, balance and performance rather than any single number, so we would always start with a saddle fitter you trust. For the detail, see the size guide. The measurements provided are intended as a guide only. Due to the organic shape of equestrian products and the inherent subjectivity of the measuring process, slight variations may occur.

Wintec Isabell Icon
The movable overgirth wraps the saddle flap around your horse, so you get an unrestricted feel with no interfering flap movement. That stillness through your lower leg and upper body is what makes the most demanding movements look effortless.
Equi-Suede is soft with just enough stretch to move with you, comfortable from the very first ride, with good grip even when it is wet. An Equi-Leather wear patch protects the saddle from your boots so it stays in top condition.
What HART gives you
- Elastiflex tree: flexes and moves with your horse's stride, so their back can swing and move naturally.
- EASY-CHANGE Fit Solution: you or your saddle fitter can change the width of the Elastiflex tree with the EASY-CHANGE Gullet System, and change the depth of the panel to alter the balance with the EASY-CHANGE Riser System.
- CAIR Cushion System: air cushions stay in contact with your horse's moving back muscles, for even, lower pressure and shock absorption.
