Constant further development is essential to ensure survival on the
market. This applies with regard to companies as well as to products.
Since 1867 G. Passier & Sohn has been a leading name in saddles,
bridles and accessories made in Germany. This is thanks to ongoing
further development in collaboration with top Passier partners in
international sport. The most recent example of this is the Hubertus
Schmidt II Dressage Saddle in an updated look.
And there are some impressive new developments, too: The Optimum Pony Dressage Saddle,
for example, is a real eye-catcher and the Soft
Touch Deluxe Stirrup Leathers are soft like velvet
but also extremely robust.

THE HUBERTUS
SCHMIDT II
DRESSAGE SADDLE
In addition to the popular Hubertus Schmidt Dressage Saddle,
a second model is now available: the Hubertus Schmidt II.
The new Hubertus Schmidt II Dressage Saddle
not only has an elegant appearance – it is also
very comfortable for the rider and exceptionally
horse-friendly.
TWO SADDLES –
MANY ADVANTAGES
Saddles which bear the name of Hubertus Schmidt have to
be perfect for riders, of course, and especially kind and
comfortable for the horse!
The popular Hubertus Schmidt Dressage Saddle has been available since 2006 and is used by
hundreds of satisfied riders around the world. Now, nine years later, it was time to develop a further
dressage saddle. The new Hubertus Schmidt II Dressage Saddle combines many advantages of the
original model with some additional new beneficial features. The light-colored decorative stitching
means the saddle already looks sophisticated at first sight and, with the new “The Lifter” panels, it is
always positioned correctly on the horse’s back. A dream saddle for horses and riders!

More contact area
from the middle
of the saddle due
to increased panel
volume!
Now available – the new panels provide even more contact area with the
horse's back e. g. for horses with high
withers.
It's a familiar problem: The horse has high withers. This means:
the front of the saddle has to be raised to prevent it from lying
on the withers. In order to keep the saddle in a good horizontal
position, the panels also have to be raised at the rear. The problem is that if the panels are too thick at the rear, the saddle will
not always be in perfect balance. The solution is now provided
This is a very good view of how
quickly and how well the panels
come out of the horse's back,
due to the short, round form at
the rear.

The increased
volume means
extra high gussets
are no longer
required!
These panels are
ideal for horses
with high withers.
The panels are
shorter, and rounder
at the rear.
Particularly good for horses with high withers, for example: “The
Lifter” – the panels with even more contact area on the horse's back.
The short, round
form of the panels
means they come
quickly out of the
horse's back and
will therefore not
exert pressure!
Side view: Plenty of space for withers,
more contact area on horse's back.
THE OPTIMUM PONY DRESSAGE SADDLE
Extremely elegant from all sides:
The Optimum Pony sits perfectly
on the pony's back.

SOFT, SOFTER,
SOFT TOUCH
DELUXE
Brand new and extremely soft:
Soft Touch Deluxe Stirrup Leathers.
The new, elegant stirrup leathers with light decorative seams are made of top
quality European cowhide. They justly deserve the name “Soft Touch Deluxe”
because they are velvety soft to the touch. The stirrup leathers are also hardwearing and as a result of the nylon insert will never stretch, no matter how
intensely they are used. To enable very fine adjustment, the stirrup leathers are
designed with 25 closely positioned holes. Best appearance in top quality!
Passier offers a range of stirrup leathers –
so there is an option available for everyone.
