I have an EZ Fit saddle and a Sensation Hybrid both work well on my super wide Fjord. The EZ Fit is westerny looking, but without a horn. It feels more like riding in a traditional saddle. The seat size, cinching and stirrup placement are all highly adjustable. The saddle's panels give good spinal clearance and are stiffer than many of the treeless. It threw me for a loop when I first got it because the sides seemed to stick out, but they quickly conform to the horse. It's handmade by a very nice Amish guy named Eli and the only complaint is the pommel looks a little funny, but the saddle is well made. The Sensations have been around for a while and come in several styles-English Trail, Dressage Trail, Hybrid, Western and a couple more. The saddle is the most comfy I've ever sat in and very secure feeling. There is a plastic piece inside (like a mini flex-tree) that is butterfly-shaped and a few horses are more comfortable with that piece removed (easy to do).
