Keep Your Horse Cool and Focused with the Shires Arma Eltar Dressage Saddle Pad

Designed for the serious dressage rider, the Shires Arma Eltar Dressage Saddle Pad addresses the common struggle of sweat buildup and friction under deep-seated saddles. Whether you're working on lateral movements at home or heading down the center line, this pad provides the technical performance your horse deserves to stay comfortable and perform their best.

From our barn to yours, we know that a good dressage pad needs to do more than just look the part. It needs to handle the heat of intense schooling while maintaining a professional silhouette. The Arma Eltar is built for the long haul, combining high-tech moisture management with an elegant finish that is show-ring ready.

Key Benefits for the Dressage Horse & Rider

• Advanced Moisture Control: The Ultra Dri-Zone lining instantly wicks sweat away from the skin, preventing overheating and significantly reducing the risk of painful rubs or heat scald during heavy work.
• Enhanced Durability: Features a PU ARMA Contour Pro Girth Guard that protects against high-friction wear from the girth, ensuring your pad remains in top condition season after season.
• Precision Dressage Fit: The deep, straight-cut profile is specifically engineered for dressage saddles, preventing bunching and ensuring the pad doesn't finish too high on the horse's back.
• Show-Ring Elegance: A sophisticated honeycomb quilt pattern and twisted twin trim offer a polished look that transitions seamlessly from daily training to the competition arena.
• Easy Care Maintenance: The rugged polyester fabric is fully machine washable, making it simple to keep your gear looking professional even after a dusty day at the barn.
