In Kaya's Collection
Steps High was introduced to Kaya's Collection in 2002. Retail cost was $60 and later increased to $75.
Horse
Dark brown Appaloosa mare with spotted rump and hooves. She also has a white star on her forehead. Brown and white "fur" covering with plastic base. Plastic lower legs with white airbrushed spots. Brown eyes. Black mane and tail.
Bridle
Non-removable braided rope bridle.
The bridle is tied into place, so if the knots are undone then it can be removed, but there will be a hole in the horse's mouth left.
Blanket
Fringed simulated animal hide blanket.
2019 Update
In 2019 Steps High was rereleased with the bridle unknotted and bundled with Kaya's Saddle. Retail cost was increased to $115. This version was retired in 2024.
Trivia
- The Nez Perce would have used fringed blankets for their horses. However, these blankets are usually placed more behind the rider, closer to the horse's back end, as decoration rather than directly under the saddle. [1]
