Product Information

Full details

The HKM Bologna Saddle Cloth is a premium dressage pad engineered for riders who prioritize both horse comfort and elegant presentation. Featuring an anatomically formed shape and integrated foam inserts, it excels at providing superior shock absorption and a secure fit under the saddle. While it offers exceptional performance, users should note that the polyester material requires adherence to specific washing temperatures to maintain the integrity of the foam cushioning over time.

FAQs

Can I use this for general purpose riding?

This model is specifically designed for the dressage cut; while it may fit, it will not align perfectly with the forward flap of a general purpose saddle.

What is the recommended washing temperature?

You should wash this saddle cloth at a maximum of 30 degrees Celsius to protect the polyester fibers and foam insert.

Is the foam insert removable?

No, the foam insert is integrated into the design to provide consistent shock absorption and should not be removed.

Will this fit a pony?

The fit depends on the saddle size rather than the horse's height; ensure your saddle size is compatible with standard dressage pad dimensions.

Is it safe to tumble dry?

Yes, the HKM Bologna Saddle Cloth is designed to be tumble-dryer safe for your convenience.

Troubleshooting

Saddle cloth slides backward during exercise

Ensure the touch-close keepers are securely fastened to the saddle D-rings and the girth straps are correctly threaded.

Pad appears bunched under the saddle

Check that the anatomically formed spine is properly pulled up into the gullet of the saddle before tightening the girth.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Anatomic design reduces pressure and discomfort
  • Excellent shock absorption from built-in foam
  • Easy to clean with machine washable fabric
  • Secure fit prevents slippage during movement

Cons

  • Dressage cut may not fit general purpose saddles
  • Polyester material must be washed at strictly 30 degrees
  • Limited to specific color options within the Bologna range

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To achieve the best results, ensure the saddle cloth is positioned so that the foam insert is centered directly beneath the weight-bearing area of the saddle. Fasten the touch-close straps securely to your saddle's D-rings to prevent shifting. For care, the pad is machine washable at 30 degrees Celsius. Ensure all touch-close fasteners are closed before washing to prevent damage to the fabric. The item is tumble-dryer safe, though air drying is recommended to extend the lifespan of the foam's structural integrity.
