Description

Cavallin Ivoska Bareback: The New Addition to the Ghost Range

The Cavallin Ivoska BarebackLinkCavallin Toscana Bareback) within the Cavallin line. It preserves the close-contact philosophy typical of bareback pads while introducing a feeling of greater stability under the rider's pelvis.

The combination of a flexible base and a dedicated pad improves weight distribution and follows the horse's movement, making it ideal for light flatwork, training, and casual trail rides. It is not designed as a technical or specialized saddle, but rather as an intuitive tool for riders looking to maintain a natural style of riding with a touch of extra support.

If you prefer an even more compact solution, you might also consider the Cavallin Mini Bareback, while those seeking a balance between minimalism and everyday use can lean towards the Cavallin Toscana Bareback.

Suede and Lorica (a highly durable synthetic vegan microfiber with excellent grip) are the standard base materials for the seat and details.

What requires an extra charge?

The other main option mentioned in the description is sheepskin / wool.

If you wish to have the seat entirely in genuine long-pile wool/sheepskin (often used for "Maremma" style models or for maximum thermal comfort), there is usually an extra charge.
The use of Nubuck or premium smooth leathers (compared to standard suede), as well as requests for two-tone/three-tone customizations on the base and panels, also involve an increase over the list price.
