I sketched this when I was trying to make sense of traditional Japanese saddles for a comic project set in feudal Japan. My main reference was the Wikipedia article for Kura (saddle). Here are the romaji translations, since I was being a big nerd and practicing my hiragana:

stirrups: abumi

saddle seat: kura tsubo

saddle seat: kurabane

leather pads: shita-kura

saddle flaps: aori

Kind of obscure subject matter, but I hope this finds whoever needs it. :)
