Choosing the right saddle pad

The cut of the pad should follow that of the saddle. A show jumping pad is cut away at the front to follow forward flaps; a dressage pad is longer and straighter. A general-purpose pad suits a general-purpose saddle. It should extend slightly beyond the saddle all round, without letting the leather touch the coat.

Material and thickness

Most pads are made of cotton or technical fabric, with more or less thick padding. A thick pad protects better, but it can make an already snug saddle too tight. A breathable lining dries faster and limits rubbing and heat. The EVA non-slip pad slips under the saddle to stop it from slipping.

Fitting it properly

Place the pad slightly forward, then slide it back to lay the hair flat. Lift it up into the gullet of the saddle before doing up the girth, so it does not pull on the withers. The loops attach to the girth straps and the girth so it does not move.

Personalisation and care

We embroider your horse's name or your yard's logo on your saddle pad, in our shop in Saint-Lô. Wash the pad often, as sweat hardens the fabric. For extra comfort, add a half pad.

Frequently asked questions about saddle pads

What size of saddle pad should I choose?

Most pads are horse size (full); some are available in pony size. Above all, choose the cut (show jumping, dressage, general purpose) to suit your saddle.

How do I wash a saddle pad?

In the machine, at 30 °C, without fabric softener. Brush off the hair first, and use a washing bag to protect your machine. Leave to air dry.

Can I have a saddle pad embroidered?

Yes, our workshop in Saint-Lô embroiders your horse's name, initials or your yard's logo. Ask us for a quote in the shop or by phone on 02 33 55 50 31.

Does a thick saddle pad replace a half pad?

Not really. The saddle pad mainly protects against sweat and rubbing; the half pad spreads pressure and absorbs shocks.
