Product Information

Full details

The Shires ARMA Jump Saddlecloth is an essential piece of equestrian equipment designed for riders who prioritize horse comfort during intensive training and competitive jumping. Its primary benefit is the combination of moisture-wicking technology and a contoured shape that minimizes the risk of chafing, though owners should note that it requires specific low-temperature machine washing to maintain the integrity of its specialized lining.

FAQs

Is this saddlecloth suitable for daily schooling?

Yes, the durable construction and anti-pill fabric make it ideal for frequent daily use.

Can I put this in the tumble dryer?

It is recommended to air dry the saddlecloth to prevent shrinking or damage to the technical lining.

Will this fit a dressage saddle?

This model is specifically cut for jumping saddles. It may not provide the correct silhouette or fit for longer dressage flaps.

Does the pad provide extra cushioning?

The pad is designed primarily for comfort and moisture management. If you require significant impact absorption, you may consider a saddle pad insert.

What is the best way to remove stubborn hair?

Use a rubber curry comb or a stiff brush once the saddlecloth is dry to flick away hair before putting it in the washing machine.

Troubleshooting

Saddlecloth slips backward during exercise

Ensure the elasticated D-ring straps are securely fastened to your saddle and that the girth is passed through the integrated girth guides.

Inner lining feels stiff after washing

Avoid using fabric softener, which can clog the fibers of the moisture-wicking material. Use a gentle detergent and ensure the item is rinsed thoroughly.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent moisture-wicking properties reduce sweat buildup
  • Anatomical shape prevents pressure on the spine
  • Durable, anti-pill fabric maintains appearance over time
  • Secure fit provided by multiple attachment points

Cons

  • Must be washed on a low-temperature cycle
  • Specific jump cut may not fit all dressage or GP saddle shapes
  • Limited to select color options

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure the best fit, align the spine of the saddlecloth with the center of your saddle channel before tightening the girth. Attach the elasticated D-ring straps to the saddle's front D-rings to prevent the pad from sliding backward during jumping. For maintenance, machine wash the saddlecloth on a cool, gentle cycle with a mild detergent. Avoid using harsh fabric softeners or high-heat drying, as these can compromise the moisture-wicking properties of the inner lining. Air dry flat to preserve the shape and structural integrity of the fabric.
