Bates Kimberley HB Classic Saddle

Modern Stock Saddle Comfort. Precision Fit. Built for the Long Ride.

Designed for riders who demand comfort, balance, and adjustability, the Bates Kimberley HB Classic Saddle blends traditional stock-saddle security with advanced saddle technology. Whether you are logging long hours on the trail or working cattle, this saddle delivers close contact, rider support, and horse-friendly performance mile after mile.

Why Riders Choose the Bates Kimberley HB

The Kimberley HB is engineered with Bates Horse and Rider Technology (HART), offering a secure yet flexible ride that moves with your horse. A balanced seat and supportive poley pads provide confidence without restricting movement, making it an excellent choice for riders transitioning between Western, stock, and English disciplines.

Horse-Focused Design

Generous, soft panels with a wide bearing surface help distribute pressure evenly across your horse’s back, while the wide spinal channel allows freedom of movement and comfort through the shoulders and spine. The result is a saddle designed to support your horse through long rides and changing terrain.

Adjustable Fit for Changing Horses

The Easy-Change® Gullet System allows you to adjust the saddle’s fit as your horse develops or changes condition, extending the life and versatility of your investment. An adjustable Y-girthing system enhances stability and balance, helping keep the saddle secure and properly positioned.

Comfort That Lasts All Day

From the ergonomic seat to the swinging fenders that naturally align your leg, every detail of the Bates Kimberley HB is built for rider comfort. The close-contact feel keeps you connected to your horse, while the thoughtful design helps reduce fatigue on long rides.
