Company founders Paul and Sherry Belton’s goal was to create precision saddles, bridles and accessories for maximum horse and rider comfort, for a worldwide market. Paul originally trained in design engineering but his passion for riding and experience managing the Spanish Riding School in Vienna and competing at Wembley, brought him together with Sherry Belton. \r\n\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\r\nSherry boasts an equally impressive equestrian CV having trained with dressage specialist Franz Rochowansky of the Spanish Riding School and her many years competing in dressage and eventing. Her experience in fitting saddles for many of ‘the stars’ of the equestrian world, combined with Paul’s passion has enabled them to create a brand that has flourished and grown in notoriety.
