FAQs
Can I tumble dry the Mackey Equisential Saddlecloth?
It is recommended to air dry this product to prevent shrinkage of the cotton material.
Is this suitable for jumping saddles?
Yes, the shape and securing mechanism make it compatible with most standard jumping saddles.
What temperature should I wash this at?
You should wash this saddlecloth at a maximum of 30 degrees Celsius.
Does this pad come with extra padding?
No, it features a standard quilted construction designed for durability rather than additional corrective padding.
Are the girth loops adjustable?
The girth loops are fixed to keep the pad centered, but they are sized to fit standard girth widths.
Troubleshooting
Saddlecloth slips during riding
Ensure the velcro retaining straps are tightly secured to the D-rings of your saddle.
Fabric looks dull after washing
Avoid using heavy bleach or high-heat drying, which can damage the cotton quilting.
Build up of hair and debris
Use a soft-bristled grooming brush on the underside once the pad is dry to remove sweat-hardened hair.
