RW Bowman Camino Trail Saddle

The The Camino Trail Saddle is built in the same traditional time honored way as all of our other Bowman saddles. Built using a wood tree and leather ground work over a tin seat strainer, this saddle is both tremendously comfortable and durable. In answer to many customer requests, it features Dual Density Visco–Memory Foam for an extra-soft seat. This padding is covered with perforated top grain leather. All the hardware on this model is solid brass.
