About st-eb
st-eb Sattelunterlagen GmbH is a manufactory in Offenburg in the Black Forest that specializes in the manufacture of saddle pads and saddle cloths for dressage, sport, baroque and recreational riding. For over 50 years, the saddle cloths have been made in the same style; the elaborate inner padding made of 100% cotton is produced by the company itself on the last machines of their kind. The pads are made as made-to-measure one-off pieces, with shapes, dimensions and topline individually adapted, and the quilting of the pads is done by hand on frames. The materials used are cotton velvet made of 100% (organic) cotton (kba) as well as untreated cotton that is washable up to 95°C. The products are sold directly via the company's own online shop; a configurator, trial saddle cloths and gift vouchers complement the offering.
