FAQs

What material is the Weatherbeeta Prime Air-Tec Dressage Saddle Pad made of?

The upper is made from 100% pre-shrunk cotton, and it features a wick-easy lining and Air-Tec mesh for breathability.

Is this saddle pad suitable for jumping or eventing saddles?

No, this saddle pad is specifically designed with a longer, straight cut to fit dressage saddles. It may not be suitable for other saddle types.

How should I clean the saddle pad?

Machine wash on a gentle cycle with cold water and mild soap. Air dry only.

What does the 'Air-Tec' feature do?

The Air-Tec mesh spine promotes airflow along the horse's back, helping to reduce heat and moisture buildup.

How do the elasticated D-ring straps work?

These innovative straps attach to the saddle's D-rings and provide stability with flexibility, preventing the pad from shifting while allowing for natural movement.

What is the benefit of the reinforced girth patch?

The strong 1680 denier girth area ensures lasting durability and protects the pad from wear and tear caused by the girth.

Are matching accessories available?

Yes, matching accessories are available to complete a coordinated look.

Troubleshooting

Pad shifts during riding

Ensure D-ring straps and girth loops are properly secured. Check that the saddle is balanced correctly on the horse's back.

Horse appears uncomfortable or sweaty after use

Verify the pad is positioned correctly and not bunched. Ensure the wick-easy lining is facing the horse's coat. Check that the Air-Tec spine is not obstructed.

Pad takes a long time to dry

Ensure the pad is thoroughly rinsed after washing and hung to air dry in a well-ventilated area. Avoid direct heat sources which can damage the materials.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent breathability thanks to Air-Tec mesh spine and cotton upper.
  • Superior moisture-wicking and quick-drying capabilities for horse comfort.
  • Designed specifically for dressage saddles, ensuring a proper fit.
  • Durable construction with reinforced girth area.
  • Reduces risk of rubbing with friction-free binding and high wither design.

Cons

  • Specifically tailored for dressage saddles and may not be ideal for other saddle types.
  • Cotton upper may require more careful drying compared to synthetic materials.
  • While durable, the 1680 denier girth patch could potentially add minor weight.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Place the saddle pad directly on the horse's back, ensuring it is centered. Secure the pad using the elasticated D-ring straps attached to the saddle's D-rings and thread the girth through the girth loops. Ensure the pad lies flat without bunching.

Compatibility: This saddle pad is specifically designed to fit dressage saddles due to its longer, straight cut. It is intended for use with horses during equestrian activities.

Care: Machine wash on a gentle cycle with cold water. Use mild soap and avoid bleach. Air dry only; do not tumble dry. Ensure the pad is completely dry before storing to prevent mildew.
