Ilset Salmakeri

Ilset Salmakeri is a saddle-making and equestrian equipment business based in Hamar, Norway, serving customers throughout the country. Founded in 1992, the business is led by master saddler Anne Kathrin, whose experience informs its work with saddles, horse and rider needs, and equipment care. Services include saddle fitting, saddle sales, and repairs to many textile and leather products, particularly equestrian gear. The workshop also offers washing for items such as horse rugs and saddle pads, and customers can contact the team to discuss repairs or fitting arrangements.

Ilset Salmakeri operates a large equipment shop with products for both horses and riders. Its range includes brands such as Pikeur, Eskadron, Sprenger, Passier, Kieffer, Horseware, Roeckl, Charles Owen, and LeMieux, among others. Products can be sent by post to customers across Norway. Anne Kathrin’s approach to saddle selection considers the rider’s needs for support and freedom of movement, as well as the horse’s anatomy and biomechanics.
