#ed_op#DIV#ed_cl#No actually it won't.....LOL!  It is best to ride in regular breeches for the 'stick' factor.  Full seats or chaps tend to really stick and I find it difficult to ride in as I actually like a little movement in the saddle.  #ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl#

#ed_op#DIV#ed_cl#Hi Cdn_cowgurl and welcome to the board :)#ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#DIV#ed_cl#I (unfortunatly) don't think the noises will stop :s I bought a Wintec 500 dressage last winter (christmas) and I still ride around squeeking #ed_op#IMG src="http://forums.equestrianconnection.com/richedit/smileys//smiley29.gif"#ed_cl# and making all kinds of noise.#ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#DIV#ed_cl#Basically you get that with the synthetic saddles (I don't beleive the wintec that is the suede material makes any noise)#ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl#

pretty much haha. sometimes depending on how much dirt is on your boots
the sound is a little less loud... but  unfotunetly  the
noise comes when the leather hits the sound of the saddle...

#ed_op#DIV#ed_cl#If your looking for a nice leather that is not too expensive (as far as saddles go) try the Bentley its just as comfy as the bates but cheaper in price not looks#ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl#

#ed_op#DIV#ed_cl#Hmm thats intresting, I school in my Wintec 500 AP and have never heard any noises. After reading this I was listing carefully for noise and still didn't hear anything. And I agree it TJ, Bently makes excellent saddles. I *love* mine and my next saddle is going to be the Bently Supreme. After sitting in Barnsbys,Bates,Stubbens and Pessoas I liked the Bently the best. #ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl#

#ed_op#DIV#ed_cl#it was a suede Thorowgood that i rode in that made so much noise, maybe it was just that saddle, but i have hear others complain#ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#DIV#ed_cl# #ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#DIV#ed_cl#So glad someone else agrees with me on the Bentley, I just bought a new supreme and I'm never going to look at anything else, its a shame they are so hard to find#ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl#

#ed_op#DIV#ed_cl#Hmmm...I have an older Thorowgood (like 8-9years old) and I do remember it being really loud when I first got it, but now not so much. It is still a bit nosier than a traditional leather saddle but not nearly as bad as when it was brand spanking new. So give your saddle 8years and it should be quiet LOL :P #ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#DIV#ed_cl# #ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl##ed_op#DIV#ed_cl#Actually I'm not sure when it stopped being so loud, it was probably a gradual thing, so there is hope!#ed_op#/DIV#ed_cl#
