Members stef73433 Posted February 21, 2013 Members Report Posted February 21, 2013 I have noticed certain saddle makers using suede rather than wool lining. what are your thoughts on this Quote
Members oltoot Posted February 21, 2013 Members Report Posted February 21, 2013 If I thought that 'the market would bear it', I would do it, make saddles lined with something else x$ cheaper and advise people to spend that extra on a good pad. That is the advice that i usually dispense on requested relines. But tradition demands sheepskin and tradition usually wins. FYI sheepskin was declared to be a critical commodity during the waning part of WWII and many saddles were lined with felt. Quote
