We don’t require the leathers to be wrapped, but we do ask that you take special care not to mark the saddle beyond the condition it was received in. You’ll need to tighten the girth and ride normally to properly assess the fit and feel of the saddle. For English saddles, we recommend using a girth with roller buckles to avoid creasing the leathers.
