All stitching bright white and hardwear shiny. Integrated panels for close contact feel, classic Butet narrow twist (narrow twist refers to the twist at the pommel, NOT the tree width) a narrow twist (which Butet's are known for) allow the rider to wrap more of their leg around the horse for a close contact feel, as opposed to saddles with wider twists that spread the riders leg further apart at the pommel.
