FAQs

What type of saddles is this pad best suited for?

This is a jump-shaped saddle pad, designed specifically for use with jump saddles. Its cut provides appropriate clearance and fit for this style of saddle.

How do I clean the suede-effect material?

It is best to brush off loose dirt and hair after each use. For tougher stains, spot clean with a damp cloth. If machine washing is needed, use a cold, gentle cycle and always air dry.

Will the Air-Tec mesh spine affect durability?

No, the Air-Tec mesh spine is designed for breathability and is constructed to be durable for regular use. It enhances comfort without compromising the pad's longevity.

Is the girth patch made of real leather?

The girth patch is made from a durable vegan leather denier, providing reinforcement in high-wear areas without using animal products.

Can this saddle pad be used for everyday schooling?

Yes, the combination of comfort features like the Wick-Easy lining and breathability makes it suitable for everyday training, alongside competition use.

What does 'High Wither Design' mean?

It means the saddle pad has an elevated cut in the front area that sits over the horse's wither. This provides extra space and prevents rubbing or pressure on this sensitive area.

Troubleshooting

Saddle pad slides during riding

Ensure the girth is properly fastened and the girth strap stabiliser is correctly utilized. Check that the saddle and girth are appropriate for your horse's conformation.

Horse appears uncomfortable or irritated

Verify the pad is positioned correctly with adequate wither clearance. Ensure the pad is clean and dry. If irritation persists, consult with a veterinarian or saddle fitter.

Suede-effect material loses its texture

Avoid machine drying. Gently brush the material after cleaning to restore texture. Spot clean rather than soaking if possible.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Effective moisture-wicking lining keeps the horse dry and comfortable.
  • Durable construction with reinforced girth patch for longevity.
  • Designed for a secure and stable fit, reducing movement and potential irritation.

Cons

  • The suede-effect material may require specialized cleaning to maintain its look.
  • May not be suitable for extremely heavy-duty, daily use without careful maintenance.
  • Specific fit may vary depending on the horse's conformation.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup: This saddle pad is designed to be placed directly beneath the saddle. Ensure the high wither area is correctly positioned and the pad lies flat against the horse's back before placing the saddle on top. Secure the girth through the designated girth loops and the girth strap stabiliser.

Compatibility: The jump-shaped design is intended for use with jump saddles, providing appropriate clearance and fit. It is compatible with most standard girths and saddles, though individual conformation may influence the precise fit.

Care:

  • Cleaning: After each use, brush off loose dirt and hair. For deeper cleaning, spot clean with a damp cloth. Machine wash on a cold, gentle cycle if necessary, and air dry completely. Avoid harsh detergents or bleach.
  • Drying: Always air dry thoroughly to prevent mildew and preserve the material integrity. Do not tumble dry.
  • Storage: Store in a clean, dry place away from direct sunlight.
