With its integral parts constructed of case hardened steel, the Genesis is also the only adjustable gullet system backed by a 10 year guarantee. You must register your saddle online for your warranty to be valid.
Adjustments to the Genesis System are made quickly and easily in 3 simple steps using the included tools: Unlock the gullet, adjust the gullet width and lock in the new width.

This is a beautiful saddle, luxurious leather thats velvety to the touch and grippy without fullseat breaches! My Thoroughbred mare is typically narrow & high withered. In my excitement to try my new toy, I had left it at the reg/med tree setting it arrives as, so I found it odd my mare was resisting moving forwards like her shoulders where restricted, they were! The flocking is just so full & firm (not hard) that it narrowed the gullet a lot. It'll relaxe with time & use undoubtedly, until then I just widened the gullet 2 turns & voila, problem solved, plus I know Im not going to have to have it reflocked in just a couple of years unlike other past saddles. I'd advise being mindful that the full flocking made the fit run more narrow than you would think. Im a very fast paced person who tends to bump into & rub past things, Im inadverantly very hard on any equiptment I use. Its only been a month, but this saddle has survived not only my bumps & rubs, but my clumsy claw-like nails, so not only is the leather soft & pretty, its very forgiving & leaning towards durable too! Im very pleased with my purchase price & am confident I will be for years to come thanks to Toulouses high quality & brilliant adjustable design. Thank you Adams Staff for anwering my many calls & questions so well & patiently, not to mention speedy delivery of my large many item orders, they are the BEST in customer service Ive had in my many years of horsemanship!!
I bought this saddle almost 2 years ago and it still looks brand new. Very high quality for the price, and little to no break-in time. It is SO comfortable, and fits me and my horse to a T. The genesis system makes fitting multpile horses very easy, as well as keeping it customized for my horse as his muscles develop.
One of the most comfy saddles I've sat in. Also is SUPER easy to adjust the gullet! Not a bad price at all and has amazing leather. I can't complain about this saddle!
