The company’s stance One step ahead The Devoucoux brand’s spectacular rise to success has been due to the fact that the range of products it offers cover needs that have until now been unsatisfied. Devoucoux ranks among the top of the range, tailored saddlery products, designed for all riders and all types of mount, whether competition or leisure. The common denominator in the Devoucoux initiative: innovation and customer service.
The catalogue includes thirteen models of saddle, which are available in as many colours and sizes as there are rider and horse pairs.
