16.5″ DP Saddlery DP Wade Saddle 8098-4652

A true working-style Wade with classic cowboy appeal—built on the DP Wade tree with FQH bars, finished in Natural smoothout leather, and paired with roughout jockeys and fenders for grip and durability. This saddle includes functional extras like a 3-piece flank set, rope strap, and hobble keeper, making it ranch-ready right out of the gate.

This 16.5″ DP Wade Saddle (8098-4652) features the DP Wade tree with 03 FQH bars, offering a secure, deep seat and the strong horn design that Wade riders expect. The Natural smoothout leather skirt contrasts with roughout fenders and seat jockeys for a true working-saddle aesthetic and better rider stability.

It is equipped with flat plate Powder River rigging for a close-contact feel and stability under heavy use, plus a rear leather slot. Brass hardware, leather conchos, and six latigo strings add to the saddle’s rugged utility. The hard seat keeps weight low and maintains a traditional Wade profile.

Finished with 1/2 flower tooling, pre-twisted medium fenders, Visalia light stirrups, a mule-hide wrapped horn, and several rider-ready extras, this is a saddle built for long hours and real work.
