Bob Loomis Reiner leather reining saddle marked "Saddlesmith N.R.H.A." One of the top reining saddles in use today.

The pre-owned saddle has been treated with leather cleaner and would benefit from more conditioning. The silver adornments are worn but still stand out. Also included are a cinch and all leather straps, as well as a pre-owned Navajo design Saddle Pad with fleece underside and black suede trims (light staining).
