Lining Options
Lambswool - Thick, 100% real wool-fleece provides many of the benefits of sheepskin without the pricetag of on-the-hide wool. It's perfect for everyday use. This pad is made in NY state using wool fleece (100% lambswool attached to a polyester backing- which creates the deep, cushioning and breath-ability of real sheepskin without the pricetag or high-maintence cleaning of hide-on sheepskin. Wool is breathable, non-chaffing, and wicks moisture. Natural unbleached tan color.
Synthetic Fleece - A high quality, high-pile synthetic sheekskin-like fleece. This high loft fleece allows for air to move under the pad and stands up well to repeated washing with hose or low-pressure setting on pressure washer.
Comfort Grip - Comfort Grip Padding is waffle-texture foam padding with a slightly tacky surface. This product is designed to allow air to move under your saddle pad while offering a superior grip- perfect for stabilizing and preventing slippage of saddles on horses with lower withers or wide backs.
Spine Style
Flat - A less expensive option, a flat, uncontoured spine pad works fine for horses with average to low withers doing basic riding or short distance trail riding.
Contoured - A premium option, a contoured spine pad is designed to fit the contours of a horse's back and lift the front of the pad to prevent binding of the shoulders and withers. Recommended for horses with high withers or any horse is serious training or being ridden significant distances.
