This saddle brings the Ergovation philosophy of improved working comfort to an affordable yet super-comfortable harness. Two floating Ds on a tough webbing bridge, awesome back and hip padding, great fit, and tapered back support. While these saddles may not have all the features of the Original Ergovation (no quick-connect buckles, rope bridge, etc.) they are still super comfortable rides that are well worth the upgrade from a basic leather & canvas saddle. These are highly recommended, professional saddles from the leading manufacturer of arborist saddles. Weighs 5 lb.
