  • If you like the feel of an endurancesaddle but want a true western build for the trail, the Virginia Flex2® Trail Gaiter brings those two worlds together. It’s designed for riders who spend long hours in the saddle and want to stay comfortable while letting their gaited horse move freely.

    Why Riders Choose the Virginia Flex2® Trail Gaiter

    • Endurance-style design offers a lighter saddle that's easy to ride without a horn
    • Short skirt helps prevent interference with a gaited horse’s natural movement
    • Softee™ fenders are broken in right from the start so you won't feel like you rode all day
    • Impact Foam™ seat cushions the ride over long miles
    • Neo-Shock™ skirt helps reduce weight and absorb shock for improved horse comfort
    • ErgoBalance™ stirrups help reduce knee and ankle strain
    • 3-way in-skirt rigging allows riders to adjust fit for their individual horse

    Built with both rider comfort and horse movement in mind, the Virginia Flex2® Trail Gaiter combines a streamlined design with practical trail features. The Neo-Shock™ skirt uses a durable neoprene filler to help keep the saddle lightweight while acting as a shock absorber between horse and rider. This design not only helps reduce impact on long rides, but also allows the Flex2® tree to work more effectively, flexing where your horse needs it for better overall comfort.

    This saddle is built on Circle Y’s Flex2® tree, a design that revolutionized the saddle industry. Unlike many flex trees that bend throughout the saddle, the Flex2® tree flexes only where your horse needs it while keeping rider weight stable and supported. That means the saddle can move with your horse without losing its structure. It also won’t get wider over time or flex in half, giving you dependable support ride after ride. Each saddle and tree is handmade in Yoakum, Texas.

    The Virginia Flex2® Trail Gaiter is the kind of saddle riders reach for when they want a more minimal design without sacrificing any comfort features for themselves or their horse.
