Customer Reviews
Designed with Uniquely Effective MaterialsEverything about this pad seems to look, feel, and perform differently than anything else I've ever used. It's lightweight and not overly bulky, yet provides plenty of shock-absorbing cushion to protect my horse's back. What especially impressed me is the extraordinary breathability of the pad; air flows freely through the honeycomb-like structure of the material to allow for cooling and sweat evaporation. When I am riding all day on a backcountry trail, pressure points and excessive heat build-up are two things I worry about creating discomfort for my hard-working horse, and this pad combats both those issues. Plus I love the high wither clearance and the non-slip traction that keeps the saddle in place whether we are climbing up a mountain pass or dropping back down on the other side. It's also easy to keep clean and dries quickly after being rinsed, so it's always fresh and ready for the next ride. I don't know why it took so long for someone to come up with this very unique approach to making a saddle pad, but I am certainly glad that they did!
Exceptional Performance & Comfort!I’ve tried a lot of saddle pads, but the Ecogold Western Non-Slip Secure Saddle Pad truly stands out. From the moment I tacked up, I noticed how well it stayed in place and, more importantly, how it kept perfect wither clearance throughout the entire ride! No slipping, no bunching. The pad strikes the perfect balance between soft and flexible while still being tough enough for high impact riding like barrel racing. It provides great support without feeling bulky, and my horse moved freely and comfortably the entire rodeo. The sleek, modern design is just the cherry on top.
If you're looking for a durable, high-performance pad that won’t compromise comfort or style, this is it. Highly recommend!
