Product Details
Materials:
While other materials trap heat and moisture and need to be perforated to allow heat/moisture to escape sheepskin's performance actually improves with moisture content. Each fiber contains many chambers that naturally store liquid, becoming more plump and elastic with increased moisture, translating into effective relief of pressure points and creating a vital protective layer between your saddle and your horse's back.
Care Suggestions:
To clean, simply machine wash on gentle, or by hand, with cool water and mild soap. Air dry out of the sun. Use a vacuum or brush to keep the wool pile fluffy.

Previous Feedback
Comments: I wasn't sure what to expect, but I'm happy with my saddle cushion. I got the brown one for an Aussie saddle, and yes it is brown, but it's a lighter brown than what shows up on the computer screen. It's not bad, it's just different. It took FOREVER to come in, but I'm glad I waited patiently. These things are so hard to find, and it's really worth the money and the wait. It has just enough texture on the bottom to stay in place while not disturbing the leather of the seat. It's super soft and cozy, and it actually provides some cushion for your butt. The strings tie around your D-rings in the front to keep it in place. It has a strap that goes over the bottom of your saddle. It's not gawdy at all. I'm really happy with it.

Comments: I am a massage therapist and have a saddle stool in my treatment room. There is a small tear in the upholstery so I wanted an attractive cover for my chair. This cover is absolutely perfect and super comfortable. It fits the whole saddle of stool and hides the imperfection in the upholstery and it looks an feels luxurious. I am so happy with this purchase.

Comments: I am a barrel racer and got to borrow one of these from a friend. Even at full speed (I was on one of my top 1D barrel horses) this seat cover was awesome! I stayed in the saddle perfectly and the extra cushion made me more comfortable which in turn made for faster times! So, I bought one of my own! A++++
