TrailMax Original Pommel Western Endurance Review

I love this thing so much I use it every time I drive! Pretty roomy for such a small bag. It fits a few snacks, a phone and a console, and my phone is in a bulky case. Great quality, easy to assemble, looks great and is VERY secure in the saddle no matter what lies ahead! I love it so much I've ordered one for my headband and one for a friend! I even own a couple of Trail Max saddlebags now that I know this brand is awesome. I literally can't say enough good things about it!

About the same size and shape as a traditional fanny pack but the loops are vertical meaning it can be worn on a belt, bike or motorbike handlebars and you have a handy little Pocket exactly where you want. If I have one complaint, it's that the adjustment buckles don't slide easily. As if the strap material was too big for the buckle. I won't complain about it too much because it will keep him from slipping off the fit. I lined my closed cell foam sheet and now it protects my phone while…

It's amazing how much I can put in this little bag and then forget about it completely. I left it in the saddle with an emergency blanket, whistle, flashlight, electrolyte hose and more room - things I hope I won't need but should have just in case but don't want to think about putting in my bag. Imperceptible when galloping. The only negative is that after the ride I undid the saddle and it went insane and when the saddle hit the ground the plastic buckle broke. Plastic and horses are…

I hate backpacks in the saddle, but I also hate buying new phones because I dropped mine off a horse in a creek. I know these first world issues are crippling. However, I have to say that I am VERY happy with this little backpack. It's big enough for the monster phones we carry around these days, as well as my keys or a dog leash. It doesn't spread during the canter (like everyone else seems to do) but just stays where it's supposed to be, in front of my pommel. Cons: If you blush like me…

I like it! I felt like I was taking a risk but I'm so glad I decided to buy it! my iphone 8plus is perfect for a medium sized water bottle. I don't own or rent anything, but I take classes and wanted to drive with my phone without fear of it falling out or sliding out of my trunk. It doesn't wobble to the point where I kind of forget it's there lol. If your horses have small withers or a large or thick neck, it will stand up a bit, but I didn't notice that. I love this product and like to save…

Great little bag. Big enough to hold my camera, snacks, curried scallops, horse snacks, sunscreen, lip balm, etc. But still small enough to be unobtrusive for horse comfort and also allows me to use my mecate and nightlatch. Stays out of the way and stays in place at all gaits. I buy a second one so I don't have to swap it for two saddles for two different horses. However, I would not put my cell phone or truck keys in here in case you and your horse become separated for any reason. I don't…

For several years I used an old fanny pack as a saddlebag. It worked well but wasn't easy to attach or detach from the saddle. A button-down pocket solves this problem. The only downside I have is that it only has one main compartment so I can't keep my phone separate from the vials of insecticide, sunscreen and sunglasses (in one case). So I cut off the outside pocket from my fanny pack that I no longer use and sewed it onto the handle on the front of this bag. Now it's perfect for my use! The

A few years ago while riding the trails at DuPont State Park I lost my lunch! On a very hot day, I reached behind my back to open my Cantel bag for a sip of water, but when I put the water bottle back, I obviously didn't seal it very carefully. I didn't look either. When we stopped for lunch about three hours into our trip, I was very hungry, and I was more than a little disappointed not to find dinner in that pathetic bag of candelabra. There is no water either. I can imagine the people behind
