Frequently Asked Questions

How does the contoured shape and 32"x32" size ensure proper fit and comfort for my horse?

Our Equine Zone saddle pad is meticulously contoured to naturally follow the curve of your horse's spine, promoting crucial wither relief and preventing common pressure points that can lead to discomfort or injury. The standard 32"x32" dimensions provide ample coverage for most English and Western saddles, ensuring the pad extends appropriately beyond the saddle skirt for comprehensive protection. The 3/4" high-density wool felt adds significant cushioning and can help with minor saddle fit adjustments, though it's important to remember that a pad is not a substitute for a properly fitting saddle.

What are the key benefits of the 100% wool felt, and how does it protect my horse's back?

The 100% wool bottom of this pad offers a multitude of benefits for your horse's back health and performance. Wool is a natural fiber renowned for its exceptional shock absorption, significantly reducing impact on your horse's spine during rides. Its natural breathability and superior moisture-wicking properties efficiently draw sweat away from the skin, keeping your horse cooler and drier, which helps prevent rubs and sores. Furthermore, wool naturally regulates temperature, keeping your horse comfortable in various weather conditions, warm in winter and cool in summer.

How durable is this saddle pad, and what is its expected lifespan with regular use?

The Equine Zone Contoured Tan Wool Saddle Pad is engineered for longevity and resilience. We use 3/4" high-density premium wool felt, which is designed to maintain its loft, cushioning, and structural integrity over time, resisting the common issue of packing down with heavy use. The top line is reinforced with distressed leather, adding critical strength to the spine, while durable microfiber wear leathers protect the pad from friction and wear from cinches and stirrup leathers. With proper care and maintenance, this pad is built to provide reliable performance and protection for many years of regular riding.

What are the recommended care and cleaning instructions for this wool saddle pad?

To preserve the performance and extend the life of your wool saddle pad, we recommend the following care routine: After each ride, brush off any loose dirt, hair, and dried sweat. For deeper cleaning, hand wash the pad using cold water and a mild, wool-safe detergent. Gently rinse until the water runs clear. Avoid harsh chemicals, bleach, or fabric softeners, as these can damage the wool fibers. Do not machine wash or machine dry. Instead, reshape the pad and lay it flat or hang it to air dry in a well-ventilated area, away from direct sunlight or artificial heat sources, to prevent shrinkage or damage.
