FAQs
Do you ship saddles anywhere in NZ?
Yes, from Cape Reinga to Stewart Island and even the Chathams. There is a slightly higher shipping charge due to the size of the package.

That should be fine! Just fill in the form above and we will be in touch.
What if I buy the wrong size saddle?
Just return the saddle to us un-used, in perfect condition and with the original tags on, and we'll send you the right one. See our return policy here.
