Putting Together Your Inky Dinky Saddle
Why Parents Choose the Inky Dinky Saddle
You’re not just buying a saddle. You’re setting your child up for years of confident riding.
The Inky Dinky Saddle isn’t a toy or a short-term fix - it’s a purpose-built saddle designed by equine professionals and parents, tested over nearly two decades, and trusted by families worldwide.
Confidence from Day One
The snug fit helps toddlers feel secure - so they relax, enjoy the ride, and learn naturally.
No wobbling. No slipping. Just riding, whether walking, trotting, cantering or jumping.
Grows With Your Child
One saddle takes your child from first pony ride to teenage years - thanks to the adjustable fit and optional transition set.
Comfortable for Your Pony
The treeless design and memory foam base shape to your pony’s back and reduce pressure points. Even tiny Shetlands are comfortable in it.
Loved by Families, Backed by Experts
Used by riding schools, therapy centres, and pony clubs - and praised by parents around the world.
No - it actually helps! The snug, adjustable fit supports your child so they can relax and follow the movement of the pony. This builds balance, an independent seat, and natural posture - which are the foundation of good riding. Many children transition easily from the Inky Dinky to traditional saddles or even riding bareback.
We’ve had riders as young as 12 months use it with support. Most children start between 1-3 years old, and with the optional Transition Set, they can use the same saddle into their teens.
Yes. The saddle is treeless and fully adjustable, so it fits most ponies and horses - from mini Shetlands to large draught breeds. The adjustable gullet and secure straps help it sit comfortably on different shapes.
No. While it’s ideal for young children starting out, the Inky Dinky Saddle grows with your child. The Transition Set (sold separately) adapts it into a more traditional saddle that older children and even small adults can use.
The saddle comes with a built-in handle for safety, but stirrups and girths are sold separately. We recommend a dressage-style girth (35-75cm) and offer stirrup leathers and child-sized stirrups in our accessories section
Yes. The treeless, memory-foam design shapes to your pony’s back and helps avoid pressure points. It’s lightweight and flexible, making it a great choice even for small or sensitive ponies.
Absolutely. We're proud to say that due to the high quality materials and design, the Inky Dinky Saddles holds it's value really well even after years of use. Unlike fixed-size toddler saddles, the Inky Dinky is designed to last for years. It’s handmade with premium materials and can support your child from their first ride through to their teenage years - making it a smart, long-term investment in their safety and riding journey.
