I was looking for a secure and comfortable saddle to take my dressage horse on trail rides and am so glad I got in contact with Amber of Outback Saddles. Her knowledge of saddle fit and horse shape is outstanding, which made it possible to find a great saddle despite shopping at a distance. After sending photos and tracings, Amber sent me her recommendations on best options for Australian saddles and I was impressed that none were the highest priced saddles she carries, but were instead the ones most likely to fit. The saddle I chose was beautiful and comfortable and rides very secure. Amber worked with me to assure a good fit for my very hard-to-fit horse, even adjusting the tree a second time. It was very evident that she was interested in providing the best saddle for me and the horse, rather than making the quickest or priciest sale. What most impressed me was Amber’s professionalism. I never waited more than 8 hours for a reply to my many emails and she kept me informed on shipping and provided tracking information the same day. My horse and I are now both very comfortable on trail rides. Me, because I know with the deep seat and poleys I am not going anywhere; and the horse because the tree and panels fit her well and I am relaxed. We are fortunate to have such a great option for Australian type tack in Canada. I would not hesitate to purchase from Amber and Outback Saddles again.Linda, Winnipeg, Manitoba

I have a long backed TW and he is old. I bought a Aussie saddle from Amber and had trouble getting it to fit. Amber came to my house which is 230 miles one way and she measured up my gelding and my husband’s gelding. Amber took my saddle home with her, 230 miles. She fixed my saddle and an Aussie saddle for my husband’s horse and an Aussie saddle for my mule.  Amber came all the way back to my place again and made sure all three saddles fit properly. Amber has given us the best service possible far above what anyone could ever expect. Amber answers our e-mails promptly, returns phone calls right away. You just could not get better service anywhere.

I have been dealing with Amber from Outback Saddles for the past year. I have a horse that is dealing with extreme cinchiness and saddle discomfort and  I was unable to ride her with a western saddle. Amber was able to find a comfortable saddle for myself and my horse within my budget and had it fit specifically to my mare. Amber has refit the saddle three times in the past year to have my mare comfortable. My mare has not been a easy one to fit and I have texted Amber many times for suggestions and ideas and she has always been extremely kind and caring. Amber has always been willing to think outside the box to keep me riding this mare. I know we still have long road ahead of us but without Amber's knowledge and expertise we would have not made it as far as we have. We can not thank you enough for all your support and help!

I can’t say enough good things about Amber and Outback Saddles. I’ve been a customer for many years and just purchased my 2^nd Aussie saddle. I haven’t looked back since my first purchase and now that I’ve developed some arthritic problems, I REALLY appreciate the comfort of these saddles!!!

The prices are always fair, the product quality is excellent, and anyone who has dealt with her will agree that Amber truly goes out of her way to provide the absolute best customer service!

Amber at Outback Saddles is one of the most helpful people I ever dealt with, and she stands behind her products.

This is my second Aussie from Outback , and I can’t say enough about the customer service I received from Amber. I traded in my old Kimberly Stock and got a newer version , and even though I have only had it a couple days , I’m sure I will love it as much as my last!

I have a hard to fit horse, short backed and wide. Cariboo Outback was very helpful and knowledgeable in fitting both my horse and me. Service returning emails and all my questions were answered promptly. Very accommodating.

This is my second Aussie from Outback , and I can’t say enough about the customer service I received from Amber. I traded in my old Kimberly Stock and got a newer version , and even though I have only had it a couple days , I’m sure I will love it as much as my old one. They’re a wonderful saddle , secure and LIGHT , which is an important consideration because the older I get the less I like heaving a 40 lb. Roper up onto my Fat Boy. Looking forward to many more years of enjoyment … and would recommend an Aussie and Cariboo Outback to anyone!

Hats off to Amber: I would encourage people to purchase the chinks from Cariboo Outback. I received my chinks custom made all the way from BC. I live in NL and made the plunge to have amber make me a pair of chinks. I was wearing a pair of chaps that restricted my movement to mounting my horse. Since buying Cariboo Outbacks product mounting is a breeze and so is the fit. Luckily I found this wonderful tack store and been buying there excellent merchandise every since. Koodles to Amber?
