About This Saddle
The Stubben Maestoso Delux is a premium dressage saddle designed for riders seeking exceptional comfort and classical riding principles. This secondhand example features Stubben's renowned Biomex technology integrated into the seat, offering superior ergonomic support for both horse and rider.
Ideal Horse Conformation
This saddle is particularly well-suited to horses with:
Medium to High Withers: The saddle's design provides excellent clearance and support for horses with well-defined withers that blend smoothly into a muscled back
Well-Muscled Backs: Horses with good muscle development and a curved back profile will benefit from the close contact design
Balanced Conformation: Ideal for horses with proportionate build and good topline development
Key Features & Benefits
Biomex Technology: Reduces pressure on the rider's spine and seat bones, absorbs shock effectively, and ensures more even weight distribution—particularly beneficial for longer rides and riders with back sensitivities
Close Contact Design: The short panel rib allows the saddle to sit close to the horse's back, enhancing the rider's ability to feel and follow the horse's movement for calm, accurate aids
Classical Principles: Deliberately omits knee blocks to allow maximum freedom of movement, promoting a natural, well-balanced seat and independent position
Premium Construction: Handcrafted using full grain cow hide and traditional German craftsmanship from Stübben's manufactory in Kempen
Double-Flap Design: Provides versatility and comfort for the rider
Rider Suitability
This saddle is best suited to experienced, classically trained dressage riders with a well-schooled seat who place high demands on seating comfort and refined communication with their horse. The Biomex technology makes it an excellent choice for riders seeking back support during extended riding sessions.
Important Note: Saddle fitting is crucial. While this saddle model is designed for specific horse types, it's always recommended to have a professional saddle fitter assess both the horse and rider to ensure the best possible fit.
5 | Brand New: Pristine condition, often with tags still attached. Showroom quality with zero wear.
4 | Very good: Lightly used with minimal signs of wear (like faint stirrup leather marks). The leather is supple, the tree is sound, and it has been exceptionally well cared for.
3 | Good: Showing standard, normal signs of regular use. May have cosmetic scuffs, moderate stirrup leather wear, or slight discoloration, but it is entirely structurally sound and ready to ride.
2 | Fair: Well-loved with noticeable wear. May have deeper scratches, heavier leather fading, or minor cosmetic blemishes, but the tree and safety components are completely intact. A great budget-friendly, functional option.
1 | As-Is / TLC Needed: Heavy wear or significant cosmetic damage. May need minor repairs (like flocking, a new billet, or stitching) before hitting the trails. Still functional, but priced accordingly.
