I bought two saddles from horse.com aka countrysupply...I will never order a saddle from them again, two pieces of crude. Safe bet would be stateline.

Both of these websites are pretty much the same so I think either one would be fine.

I love synthetic saddles period. I still have my first one (I got it about 15 years ago), which was a Wintec but now I only use it for starting youngsters because it is so worn, if they flip or lie down in it the saddle can’t be damaged. Granted the leather saddles may last longer but I evented for years in Synthetic saddles and to be honest I loved the ones with the suede seat because when you wear full seat breeches it’s like having velcro on your butt. They’re also much easier to clean and if you like to go swimming (either on purpose or not), your saddle will be fine…every try getting mould off a leather saddle? Eww!
The synthetic saddles are so much lighter on the horses’ backs and they seem to really appreciate it. My old event mare very obviously hated the leather saddles when I tried them again. Synthetic saddles also seem to be a lot nicer on the riders butts too!
I love them but everybody has their favourites.

The Wintec is a great everyday saddle, as long as it properly fits your horse. I've had students that have used them for several years. Usually, as students advance in riding, they want the traditional leather saddle since there endless options on fit. However, for casual riding, trail riding, etc. it should be a fine choice.

i prefer statelinetack for riding stuff (saddles, bridles halters) the high end stuff. Horse.com is better for barn stuff and fly spray stuff like that. Stateline has more new things and both have good qualities.

Wintec saddles are great. They aren't leather, so you don't have to worry about cleaning them, and stuff. As far as I know, they are cheaper, and probably last longer than leather. But, I'm pretty sure you can't show in them, if you're interested in that. I would ask someone at the place where you are going to buy your saddle, and find a leather one you like and ask them to compare them. Wintecs are also lighter!!
