Product description
Heavy-Duty Air Ride Protection Under a Hand-Woven Wool Top
Best for: Western riders looking for a shock-absorbing, wool-lined saddle pad sized for a full Western saddle.
The Professional's Choice SMX Heavy Duty Air Ride Shilloh Saddle Pad puts a 3/4" breathable Heavy-Duty SMx Air Ride core between your saddle and your horse's back. The core is built to protect the back from pressure and absorb shock, while letting air reach the skin for a natural cooling effect.
Against the horse, a soft merino wool lining wicks moisture away and conforms to the back. On top, a hand-woven 100% wool Navajo blanket gives the Shilloh its look, in Black/Turquoise, Black/Crimson Red or Black/Teal.
At 34" x 36", it is sized for a full Western saddle. The pad conforms to both horse and saddle for close contact, which barrel racers appreciate on tight turns, and it is suitable for any Western discipline.
