RETURN POLICY

Return Policy 

SADDLE POLICY
Although we try to make the best saddle available, we cannot guarantee that the saddle you order, or buy, will fit your horse due to the differences in horse size and build. 
  • Horse fit or rider fit, again as horse and rider sizes and shapes differ it is impossible for us to guarantee a fit to every customer. We do however offer many size options to accommodate most horses and riders. We also offer assistance in reselling your saddle.
  • Due to the international logistics of our business, we cannot guarantee the date of delivery for any saddle. We ship with UPS and find they are the most professional company, but once the saddle has an AWB (tracking number) no refunds will be given for delays in shipping. 
  • We are not responsible for stains or blemishes during the shipping process, we do our best to package each saddle with care and protection. 
  • Saddles have a 30 day aesthetic warranty and a 2 year tree warranty.* Warranties will be honored on a case by case basis and refunds or exchanges are at the discretion of SK Equine management and are not guaranteed. Considerations such as accidents or mal intent to harm the saddle for refunds or exchanges will be taken into consideration when determining warranty cases. SK is not responsible for covering any shipping cost. 
CUSTOM SADDLE ORDERS
  • Custom orders are made only with a $500 nonrefundable deposit. 
  • Once your saddle order is ready you have 30 days to pay the balance or you forfeit any payments made toward the saddle, including the deposit. 
  • We send photos for preapproval on all custom orders, once a custom saddle is approved, it cannot be returned.
  • Please ask for more pictures or a video of you are not satisfied with what has been uploaded on the tracker.
  • Wait time to receive your custom saddle varies on the model of saddle, available material and shipping situations that may be out of our control. Current wait time is 18 to 21 weeks, but this is an estimated arrival date. No refunds or discounts will be given due to delays in saddle production. No refunds will be given due to shipping companies holding the product or late delivery of the product as this is out of our control. 
  • You can check the production status and payments of your custom saddle on our SK SADDLE TRACKER
