FAQs
Will this fit all types of saddles?
The HyCOMFORT Seat Saver is designed to fit most standard English-style saddles, though deep-seated dressage saddles or extra-wide jumping saddles may have a different fit.
Can I machine wash this?
It is recommended to hand wash or spot clean only to preserve the structural integrity of the internal padding and elastic panels.
Is the Beige color prone to staining?
As with any light-colored fabric, it can show dirt more easily than the Black or Brown variants, so regular brushing is advised.
Does it affect my position in the saddle?
The seat saver adds a small amount of height and thickness. While it increases comfort, it may take a few rides to adjust to the slight change in your seat position.
Can I use this for show jumping?
It is suitable for training at home, but check with your specific competition regulations if you intend to use it during formal events.
Troubleshooting
The seat saver shifts while riding.
Ensure the touch tape strap is tightened sufficiently and that the elasticated panels are pulled snugly over the pommel and cantle.
The touch tape is no longer holding securely.
Check the hooks of the touch tape for trapped hair or debris; clean with a small brush to restore the locking grip.
Pros and Cons
Pros

- Easy to install and remove via touch tape straps

Cons
- May reduce the tactile 'feel' of the horse through the saddle

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To install, simply lay the seat saver over your saddle seat and secure the touch tape straps underneath the saddle flap or around the gullet, depending on your specific saddle design. Ensure the elasticated panels are stretched evenly to prevent bunching. For care, gently brush off dried mud or debris after every ride. If the seat saver becomes saturated with sweat, it should be removed and air-dried away from direct heat sources to maintain the elasticity of the fabric and the integrity of the touch tape. Spot clean with mild soap and water only when necessary.
