</details>---

#### **Usage**

Saddles are part of a tack set required to ride tamed [SWEM Horses](https://wiki.swequestrian.com/books/star-worm-equestrian-mod/page/swem-horse "SWEM Horse"). Using a saddle is the third tack item, and requires a blanket (saddle blanket) to be equipped.

Right click a tamed [SWEM Horse](https://wiki.swequestrian.com/books/star-worm-equestrian-mod/page/swem-horse "SWEM Horse") with a saddle in hand to equip it - or open the horse's GUI menu (shift + right click with an empty hand) to place the item in the designated tack spot. If a horse already has a saddle on, you can easily 'hotswap' it for another by shift + right-clicking with the new saddle in hand.

<p class="callout info">Tack-equip order: [Bridle](https://wiki.swequestrian.com/books/star-worm-equestrian-mod/page/bridle "Bridle") &gt; [Blanket](https://wiki.swequestrian.com/books/star-worm-equestrian-mod/page/blanket "Blanket") &gt; [Saddle](https://wiki.swequestrian.com/books/star-worm-equestrian-mod/page/saddle "Saddle") &gt; [Girth Strap](https://wiki.swequestrian.com/books/star-worm-equestrian-mod/page/girth-strap "Girth Strap"). Optional: [Breast collar](https://wiki.swequestrian.com/books/star-worm-equestrian-mod/page/breast-collar), [Leg Wraps](https://wiki.swequestrian.com/books/star-worm-equestrian-mod/page/leg-wraps), [Horse Armor](https://wiki.swequestrian.com/books/star-worm-equestrian-mod/page/horse-armor), [Saddle Bag](https://wiki.swequestrian.com/books/star-worm-equestrian-mod/page/saddle-bag)</p>

You can use any saddle with any other riding tack pieces to mix English, Western &amp; Adventure. The only exception is Adventure Saddles require a full matching set to use [Horse Armor](https://wiki.swequestrian.com/books/star-worm-equestrian-mod/page/horse-armor), but once the armor is put on the saddle can be 'hotswapped' out for different versions.

**Girth Strap** A saddle requires a [Girth Strap](https://wiki.swequestrian.com/books/star-worm-equestrian-mod/page/girth-strap "Girth Strap") to remain equipped - if there is no girth strap the saddle has a 20% chance of falling off every second. When a saddle falls off, the player will be dismounted.   
When untacking, if the saddle is removed before the girth strap it will fall to the ground.

**Breastcollar** When untacking, if the saddle is removed before the [Breast collar](https://wiki.swequestrian.com/books/star-worm-equestrian-mod/page/breast-collar) it will fall to the ground.
