FAQs

What is the main benefit of the bamboo lining?

The super soft bamboo lining is designed to absorb and control sweat effectively, keeping the horse comfortable and reducing the risk of skin irritation and rubbing.

How should I wash the LeMieux Suede Dressage Square?

Machine wash at 30 degrees Celsius in a wash bag, securing all velcro beforehand. Pull into the correct shape while wet and air dry away from heat.

Can this saddle pad be used with any dressage saddle?

Yes, it is designed to be compatible with most dressage saddles, featuring elasticated D-ring tabs for a secure and adjustable fit.

Is the suede material durable for regular use?

Yes, the luxurious suede upper is designed to be durable for regular use, complementing the functional aspects of the saddle pad.

What should I do if the saddle pad doesn't feel secure?

Ensure the elasticated D-ring tabs are properly attached to the saddle's D-rings. Check that the saddle itself is fitting correctly, as a well-fitting saddle contributes to saddle pad security.

Can I use fabric softener or bleach?

No, it is not recommended to use fabric softener or bleach, as these can damage the special fabric properties and lining.

What does 'high wither design' mean?

A high wither design means the saddle pad has extra clearance over the horse's wither (the highest point of the horse's back at the base of the neck), preventing pressure and discomfort in that sensitive area.

Troubleshooting

Saddle pad not sitting smoothly

Ensure the horse's back is clean and dry. Check that the saddle pad is pulled into its correct shape after washing and drying. Adjust the D-ring tabs for optimal positioning.

Visible rubbing or irritation on the horse's back

While designed to minimize friction, ensure the saddle and rider are balanced. Check for any debris trapped within the saddle pad lining. Consider if the saddle fit is optimal for the horse.

Excessive sweat after use

Although the bamboo lining is highly sweat-wicking, extreme conditions may still lead to some moisture. Ensure the saddle pad is properly cleaned and dried between uses to maintain its performance.
