How it works

Wiktionary’s first sense of saddle is a rider’s seat set on a horse’s back. The saddle emoji here follows it: Horse, then Seat, one of two emoji CLDR files under seat.

Rider, tack and boot, by the search words

CLDR is the word list behind emoji search. It files equestrian under Horse alone and riding under Horse racing and six cyclists. Tack, bridle, stirrup and reins lead nowhere, and boot leads to Hiking boot and Woman’s boot.

English and Western

Wikipedia sets the two apart by the horn: it goes with the Western saddle, and an English saddle is flatter and has none. So the Western combo opens with Cowboy hat face and the English one with Horse face, the only emoji filed under dressage, a sport ridden in an English saddle.

Questions and answers

Is there a saddle emoji?

Not by that name. Unicode’s emoji list, version 18.0, has four emoji with horse in the name and none named for a saddle, a bridle or a stirrup. 🐎💺, Horse then Seat, is the nearest pair.

Is there a horse saddle emoji?

🐎💺 is the one on this page. For a saddle with someone in it, 🏇 Horse racing is the only emoji CLDR files under jockey. The combo Sidesaddle adds two boots, since that rider sits with both legs on one side.

Is there a bike saddle emoji?

No. Wiktionary counts the seat of a bicycle or motorcycle as a saddle, and neither has an emoji of its own. Bike saddle is 🚲💺 and Motorcycle saddle is 🏍️💺.
