FAQs

Is this saddle pad suitable for very hot weather?

Yes, the Air-Tec mesh spine is specifically designed to enhance airflow and help keep your horse cool, making it suitable for warm conditions.

Can I use this pad on a horse with sensitive skin?

Absolutely. The super soft faux fur lining and rolled wither are intended to provide extra comfort and minimize the risk of rubbing and irritation, making it ideal for sensitive horses.

How do I ensure the pad stays securely in place?

The pad features elasticated D-ring straps and girth straps designed for a secure fit. Proper attachment to the saddle's D-rings and appropriate girth tension are key.

What type of saddle is this pad designed for?

This saddle pad is designed for All Purpose saddles. It's always recommended to check the fit with your specific saddle.

How often should I wash the saddle pad?

Wash the saddle pad as needed, based on usage and visible dirt or sweat. Regular brushing to remove loose hair and dirt after each use can extend the time between washes.

Can I machine dry the saddle pad?

No, do not tumble dry the saddle pad. It should be air-dried to maintain its shape and material integrity.

What makes the 'wick-easy' lining beneficial?

The wick-easy lining is engineered to draw moisture (sweat) away from your horse's skin and towards the outer layers of the pad, helping to keep the horse dry and comfortable.

Troubleshooting

Pad shifts during riding

Ensure girth straps are snug but not overly tight. Verify D-ring straps are properly attached to the saddle's D-rings. Check that the saddle itself is fitting correctly.

Faux fur lining appears matted

Gently brush the faux fur lining with a soft brush after cleaning and drying. Ensure the pad is completely dry before brushing. Avoid harsh detergents.

Horse shows signs of rubbing or irritation

While designed for sensitive skin, check for any rough seams or debris. Ensure the pad and saddle are clean and free from grit. Consider if the saddle fit is correct for the horse.

Pad takes a long time to dry

Ensure the pad is not over-saturated during washing. Wring out excess water gently before air drying. Drying in a well-ventilated area will speed up the process.
