This guide is for dressage riders seeking to enhance saddle stability and horse comfort. The LeMieux ProSorb Dressage Square offers improved support and a secure fit, its main caveat being the need for precise shim placement for optimal results. It features a unique quilt pattern, updated foam inserts for pressure point reduction, and a breathable bamboo blend lining for a cool, stable ride. Additional features include X Grip silicone for security, durable girth protection, and inner girth strap loops for adjusted positioning.

The 5mm foam shims can be inserted into the pockets on the underside of the pad. You can use them individually or in combination (e.g., front and back) to adjust the saddle's balance and provide targeted support. Experiment to find the most comfortable and stable position for your horse.
While designed as a dressage square, its shape and support features might be adaptable for some all-purpose saddles with a deeper seat. However, it is optimized for the flatter profile of a dressage saddle.
It is recommended to wash the saddle pad after every few uses, or as needed, to maintain hygiene and the effectiveness of the bamboo lining. Follow the care instructions carefully to preserve the material.
The bamboo blend helps to reduce static electricity, which can be uncomfortable for horses and attract dust. This contributes to a smoother, more stable feel against the horse's coat.
The white color may show dirt more readily than darker colors. Regular washing according to the care instructions will help maintain its appearance. Using a saddle pad cover can also help protect it.
The X Grip silicone prints are designed to provide superior friction against the saddle, significantly reducing the chance of the pad and saddle slipping during exercise, leading to a more secure and confident ride.
The high-density foam inserts are designed to reduce pressure points, which can be beneficial for horses with prominent withers. The shim system also allows for fine-tuning to accommodate specific conformations.
Ensure the X Grip silicone is clean and free from debris. Check that the shims are correctly inserted and providing even support. Verify the saddle itself is correctly fitted.
Review the shim placement. Incorrect or excessive shimming can cause pressure. Try removing shims or adjusting their position. Ensure the saddle is not bridging.
Ensure the pad is clean and free from build-up that could impede breathability. Check for adequate ventilation around the saddle area. Prolonged use without cleaning can reduce effectiveness.
