Different Kinds of Saddle Bags
Saddle bags are a great addition to your saddle. From its original leather material, saddle bags are now made out of synthetic material. There are different kinds of Saddle bags that can fit your needs.
An important part of the equine track, since the first saddle was invented, is a saddle bag. It is a great addition to your saddle. Since there are things that a person likes to carry with him, saddle bags are good for:
• water bottles
• rain coat
• cell phones and others
Saddle bags are originally made from leather. At current, equine saddle bags are made out of synthetic material. Examples of these synthetic materials include:
• Condura Nylon
• Canvas
Some nice-looking saddle bags available have soft linings on the backside. An example of a soft-lining saddle bag is the Fleece. Soft lining bags are used in order to prevent the bag from chaffing your horse. With this, you can consider how much load you want to take before choosing a saddle bag for your horse or mule. Of course, choose the one that best fit your needs.
Trailmax Saddle Bag System also offers a removable cantle bag. This is very easy to pack and load. It is even lined with removable foam insuliners. This helps protect delicate baggage. When properly and securely attached, this bag will not slap against the horse’s flanks.
Aside from this, it is made from 1,000 denier nylon with two sizes and six colors. The western saddlebags of TrailMax are also durable. You can use machine wash on it.
For the trail rider, a Synergist Saddles’ saddle bag is appropriate for the conventional look. It comes in large or small sizes. It can fit with any Western or endurance saddles made by any manufacturer.
Large Saddle Bag
Measurement: 11″ across with 5″ gusset
Small Saddle Bag
Measurement: 8.5″ across with a 3″ gusset
Colors:
- Black

It is important to load your horse saddle bags on your saddle so as to be:
• equal in size
• equal in weight and
• equal in weight distribution
Your horse saddle bags can have a heavy weight. Hence, it cannot adjust in the saddle like a rider.
Equal Size
TrailMax Horse Saddle Bags have equal sizes in their models. TrailMax Saddle Bags are of the same size on each side, regardless of the design or material.
Equal Weight
When loaded, make sure that each side of your horse saddle bags is within a few ounces of each other.
TrailMax Packers Scale is easy to:
• read
• lightweight and
• designed to allow one person to weigh items without assistance
Equal Weight Distribution
It is important to balance your heavy stuff on both sides evenly. Riding saddles can make you slip to the heavier side if it is not evenly placed. Aside from this, it is uncomfortable and hazardous riding down the trail with a heavy saddle on one side.
Some horses can carry more than others can. Consider the following:
• The size of the horse.
• The conditioning of the horse.
• The build of the horse.
• The attitude of the horse.
• The age of the horse.
• The size, fit, and weight of saddle.
• The ability of a saddle to distribute weight.
• The weight of the rider.
• The design of the horse saddle bags
• The distance of the ride
• The weather
The horse can carry load better over the front quarters as compared to behind the saddle. You can use horn bags for heavier gear like:
- Water
- Camera
- binoculars and others
The Cavalry Style Western Saddlebags
These saddlebags are handcrafted. It can outlast any other saddlebag available. Cavalry Style Western Saddlebags are available in two styles:
• Three-buckle full size or
• Two-buckle ¾ size
The TrailMax Pommel Pocket
This little gear bag is good for those little things you need closer to you. It will fit over your horn bags as well.
The Economy Western Saddlebags
It is made from the same 1,000 denier nylon with a Velcro flap closure. These saddle bags are simple but heavy duty. It is machine washable. It has removable foam insuliners that protect your baggage. It is attached to the saddle’s front rigging, along with leather tie straps. Thus, it also has grommets for saddle string attachment.
