Saddle Care
Saddle Care
Classic and Premium Saddles
Your saddle will come to you already oiled; the Premium saddles are heavily oiled.
Wipe down your saddle with a damp cloth, then use Lincoln Glycerine Tub Soap or Lincoln Glycerine Spray Soap for a deeper clean. Use Lincoln’s Superior Leather Balsam to hydrate deeply and create a barrier against wear and tear. Apply with a sponge in light layers and allow it to soak in. Make sure to gently clean and condition the underside, too—especially after sweaty rides or wet conditions.
Billets and girth straps take constant tension. A touch of Superior Leather Balsam helps maintain pliability in these high-stress areas, preventing cracking before it starts.
Ensure that your saddle is stored in a damp-free place and not put away in anything other than a dry condition. Use a breathable cover, if any, and keep your saddle in a cool, dry place. Avoid storing in direct sunlight or over radiators—heat is leather’s worst enemy.
Synthetic Saddles
Your synthetic saddle couldn't be easier to look after. Just wipe down with a sponge or a soft cloth dampened with warm water to lift dust and debris. Then use a synthetic-safe tack cleaner, such as Lincoln's Synthetic Tack Cleaner. Apply with a tack sponge or a damp cloth and rinse thoroughly.
Ensure that your saddle is stored in a damp-free place and not put away in anything other than a dry condition.

Exactly as I thought it would be, easy to buy, easy to get delivered (actually very quickly in the UK) I have previous experience with a TCS so was excited to own my own. And now I do. Short billet was the right choice as I had not long bought a specific girth for my trees saddle in the hope of using that again, but I wasnt comfortable or happy in it and my 4yr old mare was clearly not happy either. So the TCS hasa given us a sence of security and confidence to hack out. We hit lucky with the right padding from what I had at home.
So my review is....... Buy one new or ex-trial and you'll find a freedom you didn't think you could have.
