Girth rigging

Wedged shim inserted between base and closed panels. Perfect for those who want the classy look of the closed panels (especially with a matching color/material) but need a little lift in front to balance the rider for horses who might be downhill where the saddle wants to side or who have less curvature than the Ghost base. These work great with velcro opening panels too, and sometimes are a bigger solution than the felt shims that can go inside the panel. Sold in pairs.

Request demo of a Ghost/Cavallin saddle. Please verify via email or phone that the item you want to demo is available or check current inventory. See accessory options here. If an accessory says limited availability, you may want to check first if available if it's important. Some non-Ghost items are backordered and I can direct you to other suppliers if needed.

Saddles can be trialed for 14 days for a $110 demo fee (which covers shipping both ways except to AK and HI) plus a 50% security deposit which is refundable or applied toward purchase unless there is any unreasonable dirt, damage, or wear. I expect wear marks on the billets and rubs from leathers but not gouges from gates or bored kitties! A quick removal of sweat, dirt, and horse hair is usually sufficient, you don't need to soap or oil the saddle. The demo comes with a return shipping label, so no further expense. I generally ship via UPS ground which can take from 2-6 days depending how far you are from Oregon.

Please understand that shipping is roughly double to AK and HI so you are responsible for your own return shipping if you live in those states. If you're not sure if you're at the correct Ghost dealer in the US, please check out the map here since the greater of $25 or actual costs will be held for your demo fee if you are outside my area.

If you haven't already, please email pics of you and your horse as attachments and make sure you fill out the personal information below or I won't be able to send your demo.

If it's not safe for a package to be left at your address, choose the "Signature required" option under Delivery. The security deposit will either be refunded upon return or applied toward purchase/order. If you purchase the demo saddle, a portion of the demo fee will also be applied toward purchase.

For those who have heard of Westip girths, which are popular in Europe, Ghost has teamed with Westip to make a custom elastic webbing with the Italian flag colors. The entire length is slightly elastic for comfortable grip to the horse. Great help if saddles slip front-back or side-side on your horse. These girths are also very thin, so if your horse is smaller or the saddle is likely to put the girth into the armpits of your horse, the Ghost Westip is a great choice. Girths are available in 5cm increments. 60cm is roughly 24".

These stirrup straps are thin, yet very strong. Made from granite biothane, they'll hold up longer than leather but don't create a bump under your leg. Even better when you run the buckle at the bottom and use the handy keeper to put the excess strap neatly out of the way.
The standard configuration Ghost stirrup straps are 1" granite biothane and can work with any stirrup style. These are the only Ghost stirrup straps that work with the English slip-on fenders.
If you prefer a webber style strap, check out the T-bar and Conway Straps.
