Traditional, single-panel saddles often sacrifice comfort for mobility. To solve this problem for hunters who require the freedom to sit all day when game is active, while still retaining the ability to move locations when things slow down, Latitude Outdoors has introduced its new Lonestar Saddle.

The Lonestar saddle's design features interior padding with maximal airflow, an integrated Hip Pinch Reduction system and double the support surface area compared to standard single-panel saddles. Meanwhile, a stretch pleat ensures excellent weight distribution and fit for any body time, whether in Regular or XL size. All these deign elements combine to effectively eliminate pressure points to deliver on comfort during all-day sits. Additionally, the Lonestar includes open and closed MOLLE loops for the gear attachment and versatility required to meet almost any hunting scenario.

“After the game changing Method 2 and with our recent launch of the mobile Maverick saddle, the Lonestar completes a product trio that represents a major advancement in saddle-hunting technology,” said Alex Chopp, co-founder and chief brand officer at Latitude Outdoors. “With its combination of features and overall comfort, the Lonestar empowers hunters to push their limits during the hunt when every second counts.”
