I purchased a custom team roping saddle from corriente in October 2020. I ride ALOT and this saddle has never let me down. With different saddle pads, this saddle perfectly fits both my tall narrow older QH mare and my young round 14.2 QH gelding. I’ve also used it on a mustang, Tennessee walker and a young draft cross, I am amazed at how this saddle really seems to fit just about any horse I put it on. It took about a month to break the saddle in but it was worth it! Everyone at Corriente was so kind and helpful when I placed my order. The roper tripper collar is wonderful too, it provides plenty of support for my big mare. I couldn’t be more pleased with my custom saddle and accessories. I know this review is two years after my purchase but I wanted to make sure it held up well. Thank you for making a great saddle at an affordable price.

I live in Canada and have always wanted a Corriente saddle but worried about buying a saddle based off of a photo, and my mare is super hard to fit but It’s beautiful fits great and is super comfy! I will suggest a bigger seat size I usually ride a 15 seat ordered a 16 and it’s a perfect fit for me!

I got my fist Corriente saddle in 2017! I ride it everyday on lots of different horses! I have never not had it fit one! These saddles are durable, comfortable. And a great price! I have loved mine since the day I first rode in it! I'm ordering another one! I tell all my friends about them when they are saddle shopping!!

I’m very late posting but I have a beautiful Corriente Ranch Roper that was a gift. I think it’s a 314A model. Anyway upon receiving the saddle from the shipping company that will remain nameless that drives the big brown truck, my saddle was carried to the door in hand by the driver with a torn up box in tow. The driver said “oh it was like that when I loaded it”. First off he was delivering in a pickup truck which should have never happened, secondly I knew the driver was lying because no company would send a torn box with a label and a loose saddle. After receiving the saddle and removing the horn protector I saw damage that looked like the result of a hand grinder on the front of the horn. It actually had to have blown out and skidded upside down on the highway. Called Corriente and gave them some information. The owner called me back quickly and said to ship the saddle to them and they would let me know what the shipping company said. A few days later and the owner called me and said they weren’t waiting on the shipper that he was sending me another brand new saddle. He did exactly that. I have to say they make a wonderful heavy duty product. Their saddles are very high quality. I can’t say enough about this company and the family that owns it. They have wonderful customer service and treat you just like a family owned company should. Oh and the 314A with pencil roll high back cantle rides great for my ol bad back. Ive had a spinal surgery and even my Circle Y association roper can’t compare to the comfort of this saddle. It’s made of high quality leather and nice hardware. Thanks Corriente for the customer service but mostly thank you for building a high quality product in today’s markets and NOT falling into that temptation of making low quality cheap imitations. Your saddles are great!

I'm a Mule Packer by trade. Until ordering my Corriente Wade Mule Saddle with the strip down fenders I've been getting by with my old Macpherson With full quarter horse bars. It fits most horses great, but mules were hit or miss. The most recent place I've been packing we have 0 Horses and only mules. I knew I was in need of a mule saddle. Thanks corriente for making a good one at a decent price range. I've rode for a living for 5 years now straight. And anyone who does this for a living knows we don't make alot of money. Rodeo folks can buy their custom $3000 saddles. Us Mule packers are poor. And for the poor folk yall are great! Seriously, well built Saddle, fits every Mule in my string, looks good, and is comfortable. I get compliments on this Saddle all the time. When I'm able to afford another horse saddle it will also be a Corriente. Thankyou, Hunter

I've had the wade saddle for almost a year now and it has been the best saddle by far. I ride everything from 3 year old colts to 20 year old mares. I ride every type of horse from tall withers, round withers, skinny horses, fat horses, and everything in between; this saddle fits every horse great. It's really comfortable for long rides and everyone who has sat in it has said the same thing too. I love it!

I’ve grown up on ranches my whole life, and I am currently riding my second Corriente wade saddle. I got my first one when I was four years old and rode it until I was 12. When I grew out of that one, I bought my current wade which I love just as much. I’ve rode all sizes of horses from 2 year old colts to a draft cross paint I grew up on, and these saddles have never sored or rubbed anything in any way. The prices are beyond affordable and the customer service is exceptional. You can’t go wrong with A Corriente saddle and I would recommend one to anyone.

I went through 8 saddles with my broad shouldered Quarter Horse before I found Corriente. I’m a big believer in researching the products that I buy and I had heard some mixed reviews about Corriente saddles. After several chats regarding the gullet width and bar angle of the saddles, I decided to take the leap and order one. They were the ONLY person that I talked to who could give me answers to the questions that I was asking, including some local saddle makers! I added a whole bunch of custom things to my saddle; real sheepskin, extra tooling, initials, conchos, etc. and when I was finished making my saddle exactly what I wanted, I was so far under my budget still that I decided to add a breast collar to my order too. I was blown away when my saddle showed up a month later. Not only is it GORGEOUS, but it fits my horse SO WELL. So many problems that I was having with him went away once my Corriente went onto his back, not to mention the fact that I get compliments and questions about where I got my beautiful saddle everywhere I go! Bottom line: if you’re on the fence about this brand, don’t be! I’m a Corriente customer for life now!
