Love it or Your Money Back:
14-Day Trial money-back guarantee on saddles and seats
Total Contact Equine Solutions offers a 14-Day money-back guarantee on all their saddles and seats starting the day after you receive the goods.
This means that in the unlikely event that you find our saddles unsuitable for you or your horse, you can return it to us within 14 days for a refund providing it is returned in near-new condition. Please respect the fact that we need to resell the item so please return it free from dirt and hair and use a clean numnah.
Try your saddle (and seat) to ensure you are happy with it and that it fits your horse, but please look after it as we are trusting you to return it near-new so that we can resell it.
To start a return, please head to our Return Portal. If your return is accepted we will send you instructions on where to send your package. Items sent back to us without first requesting a return will not be accepted.
You can always contact us for any return question at melanie@total-contact.co.uk.
Customers are responsible for return postage. Refunds are less our original shipping cost and export fees (if abroad). Until the items are returned to us, they are the responsibility of the customer/courrier, therefore we strongly advise our customers use a tracked service and insure the items for their true value. Items lost in transit are unfortunately not our responsibility.
Items will be inspected when they are returned and money may be deducted for excessive damage.

Fair wear & tear
Your Total Contact Saddle will be crafted with the highest-grade materials, designed to last. However, as with anything in life, the more it uses the faster it will wear out. Please take good care of it – avoid scuffing it, be careful not to catch it in gates or stable doors, and generally do what you can to keep it in tip-top condition. We do offer a saddle service if required, please email melanie@total-contact.co.uk for a quote.
