Product Care

Naturally tanned, high quality hides for a true Italian Masterpiece!

The Leather

Amerigo manufactures its saddles using top class French and Italian hides. The calfskin is drum-tanned in pure aniline, with only vegetative materials being used in the tanning of the leather. The specially selected hides, which come from environmentally certified tanneries, combine with the meticulous handcrafting, to ensure that every Amerigo saddle becomes a true “Made in Italy” masterpiece.

Leather Care 

How to keep your saddle and accessories looking beautiful!

To ensure that your saddle retains its beauty and elasticity, it must be regularly treated with leather care products that clean and moisturise the leather without damaging it. These simple procedures create a natural protective barrier, which helps to defend the hide from natural wearing agents such as light and heat that can cause premature ageing.It is, therefore, very important that the leather care products used are also suitable for the type of hides that we use. Unsuitable products can cause permanent damage to the leathers.
The girth straps on the Amerigo saddles are made from a special leather type that does not require the use of any oil or oil based products. We also recommend that all girth straps are checked regularly and replaced whenever necessary for your own personal safety.
Amerigo has created its own collection of leather care products, which have been specially made for the hides used. If used regularly they: 
• maintain the saddles’ and accessories’ beautiful appearance;
• create a natural protective barrier, providing the leather with a defense against external natural agents;
• allow the leather and hides to keep their innate soft and elastic characteristics, extending the life of the saddle or accessory and its attractive appearance.

One saddle, one code.

The Serial Number

Each Amerigo saddle is tailored-made to order and features its own "identity code", a serial number indicating the model.
The Serial Number is located on the underside of the sweat flap on the left hand side.
