More about Prestige as a brand

Prestige Values:

Well-being

Prestige believes that the well-being of the horse and rider are one and the same. Complicity between the horse and the rider is essential in riding: the horse and the rider can only create an understanding if they are able to listen to each other. This is why each of our saddles is designed to ensure maximum comfort, respecting the morphology of both, because every horse is different, just as men and women.

Heritage

Prestige comes from a region where the tradition of tanning and leather craftsmanship has ancient roots. The earliest tanning in the Chiampo Valley in the province of Vicenza, nowadays the most significant district in Italy and one of the largest in the world, dates back to the fourteenth century.

Innovation

Prestige was the first to build a synthetic fiber tree, the first to experiment with new leathers, the first to attempt different shades and colored details. Innovation is in their DNA and continues to be the hallmark of their saddles, which conceal advanced materials and technologies. 

Craftsmanship

From the start, we have combined ‘made in Italy’ know-how and innovation, creating a contemporary saddle, a masterpiece of manufacturing and technology. The propensity to excellence guides the hand of our artisans throughout the entire production process:

from the selection of the leather to the cutting, from the tailoring to the hand stitching. Each piece is thoroughly examined and worked with equal meticulousness. 

Performance

The saddle brings together the professional and the amateur, as well as the riders in any equestrian discipline. For this reason, saddle design must consider every aspect, but always and especially the well-being of the horse and the rider, because top performance only comes from it.
