Pads and Shock absorbers

The saddle pads are placed under the horse's saddle and are available in several variations.  The saddle cloths are placed directly on the horse's back. The saddle pads absorb the animal's sweat and also prevent the formation of pressure points on the horse's back. The type of saddle pad should always be adapted to the discipline practiced by the rider. Dressage saddle pads are characterised by their straight cut, which fits the dressage saddle and its long quarter. The multipurpose saddle pad or jumping saddle pad has a more dynamic design at the front to fit the jumping saddle optimally. Usually, saddle pads are also used with a so-called shock absorber back protector so that the pressure is optimally distributed over the entire saddle support surface. Other back protectors are made of gel, neoprene, plastic foam, etc. The back protector must fit the horse's back optimally to achieve the desired effect. The range of saddle pads has developed very strongly in recent years and you can find saddle pads in a wide variety of colours, checkered, velvet, cotton, with different patterns or with details. You can also find sets with matching caps and saddle pads. Thanks to our embroidery service, you can personalise your rugs and caps according to your wishes.
