Frequently Asked Questions

How do the removable shims effectively correct saddle fit and conformation issues?

The Weaver Leather Shim Pad features strategically placed pockets containing removable EVA foam inserts. These shims allow you to customize the pad to fill in areas of muscle atrophy, bridge gaps over the horse's spine, or lift the saddle to alleviate pressure points. This ensures a balanced fit, distributes the rider's weight evenly, and prevents discomfort caused by an ill-fitting saddle, adapting to your horse's unique needs.

What makes this pad superior for shock absorption and horse comfort?

Our pad combines a dense, high-quality wool blend felt with shock-absorbing EVA sport foam shims and a contoured pad shape. This multi-layered design effectively dissipates impact energy, protecting your horse's back from concussion and strain during various activities. The wool blend felt also naturally wicks away moisture, keeping your horse cooler and drier for enhanced comfort, even during strenuous work.

Can you elaborate on the durability and material quality of the pad, especially the felt?

The Weaver Leather Wool Blend Felt Shim Pad is constructed with a durable, high-quality wool blend felt designed for longevity. The blend ensures robust performance, and the materials are selected to provide excellent protection and withstand regular use, offering reliable support for years with proper care. While wool blend felts can have varied textures, we stand by the craftsmanship and intended durability of our products.

Will this pad interfere with my close contact feel or communication with my horse?
