This Rhinegold Velvet Hexagon GP Saddle Pad is designed for riders seeking a luxurious and functional saddle pad. Its key benefit is the combination of a premium velvet finish with practical features like wickaway lining and secure girth straps, offering both style and comfort for your horse. A potential caveat is that the velvet material may require more delicate care than standard synthetic pads.

It is recommended to wash the saddle pad after every few uses, or when it appears soiled or retains a significant amount of sweat. Regular cleaning maintains the material's performance and appearance.
This is a General Purpose (GP) saddle pad. While it offers security, it is primarily designed for flatwork and schooling. For jumping disciplines, a saddle pad specifically designed for shock absorption and clearance might be more appropriate.
The hexagon quilting helps to distribute the saddle's weight and pressure evenly across the horse's back, preventing pressure points and enhancing comfort. It also adds to the aesthetic appeal.
Store the saddle pad in a clean, dry place away from direct sunlight and moisture. Hanging it on a coat hanger can help maintain its shape and prevent creasing.
To minimize color fading, it is advised to wash in cool water (30°C) and air dry away from direct sunlight. Proper care will help preserve the vibrancy of the colors.
Wickaway lining is a type of fabric designed to draw moisture (sweat) away from the horse's skin and towards the outer layers of the pad, where it can evaporate. This helps to keep the horse dry and comfortable.
Ensure girth straps are securely fastened and the girth is correctly tensioned. Check that the saddle is fitting correctly and not causing the pad to shift.
Gently brush the velvet nap with a soft brush in the direction of the pile. Ensure the pad is clean and completely dry before brushing.
Verify the wickaway lining is not compacted or soiled. Ensure the pad is the correct size and is not too tight, which can impede airflow. Clean the saddle pad regularly.
