All Steve Edwards Signature Saddles are built on the same tree to the same specifications and are designed to fit the bone structure of the mule and donkey.
The Only Saddle Tree Designed for How Mules and Donkeys Are Actually Built
Most saddles with “mule” on the label are just horse saddles in disguise. They dig into the scapula, press on the kidneys, and restrict movement. But your mule won’t complain… he just braces into the pain instead.
Steve’s saddles are different. Built on a tree he designed after 40 years of cowboying, packing freight, and learning from more mistakes than he could ever count.
His tree fits the donkey bone structure — V-shaped shoulders, low weight distribution, lateral movement — so your mule or donkey can actually do the job without fighting the saddle, too.
Your mule, your donkey is already telling you, “This saddle ain’t working for me, bucko,” all you have to do is spot those signs and listen.
Your animal ain’t the problem. It’s the saddle.

I wasn’t expecting the Come-A-Long Rope to help with bolting, but after one session he didn’t even try to bolt and was responsive to a light feel.

I am still enjoying my saddle after 15 years. I can go anywhere on my mule.

Thank you so much for all your wonderful tack and education. It was all used last week at Sawtooth Mountains, Idaho.

Without your wisdom and gear, my trail rides would’ve been like commandeering a rickety old jalopy on a bumpy road. Instead, now it feels like cruising in my slick six-cylinder manual Jeep Wrangler!

Here’s our 28 year quiet under the saddle. I’ve ridden him once with all your tack. I had the biggest smile on my face to finally be in the saddle.

I used the come-a-long rope with our mule Oakley, today, as an aid with the Farrier, it worked wonders. Thank you so much!

I just purchased my first mule. After the first week I thought I had a made a mistake. I watched your videos and purchased your rope halter and come-a-long rope. Wow! What a difference! I can’t thank you enough.

I purchased your Trail Lite Saddle, Saddle Pad, Britchen, and Breast Collar. I couldn’t be happier!

Thank you for helping this horseman understand her mule. What an AWESOME feeling approaching my mule in a different way and finally being able to catch her and halter her.

Got the saddle pad and I’m glad I did it. It’s working well.

We’ve made great progress with Steve’s advice! Thank you, Steve.

Enjoying the buckaroo saddle! It is more comfortable than a padded seat.
