Product Information
Full details
The HySPEED Reversible Comfort Pad is designed for horse riders seeking enhanced comfort and versatility during training or casual riding. Its primary benefit is the reversible design paired with extra-thick cushioning that contours to the horse's shape, though users should note that the thicker profile requires checking saddle fit to ensure the tree width remains appropriate.

Troubleshooting

Padding feels lumpy after washing
Gently shake and smooth out the pad while it is drying to redistribute the internal fibers within the 3-inch quilted lines.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure proper fit, always place the pad on the horse's back after grooming to ensure no debris is trapped underneath. Verify that your saddle clearance is still adequate after adding the extra thickness of the pad. For maintenance, the pad should be brushed regularly to remove hair and sweat. When washing is required, follow the manufacturer's care label specifically regarding water temperature to preserve the longevity of the padding material. Store the pad in a cool, dry place draped over a saddle rack to maintain its shape and density.
