Overview
Toklat's T3 Matrix WoolBack Shim Western Pad - Extreme-Pro provides the support and protection your horse requires. Ergonomically designed for maximum freedom of movement, while the strategically placed cut-out allows for ultimate close-contact leg position. Featuring a non-slip quilt ETC™ fabric top to supply security without using friction, the pad will maintain position throughout enduring rides. The 100% natural virgin woolback underside lining furnishes ultimate comfort, aiding in the prevention of common diseases such as osteoarthritis, muscle loss, and kissing spine. The contoured design allows for maximal wither clearance, making it a versatile option for use among many horses.
Matrix T3 Bio-Kinetic Extreme-Pro Impact Saddle Pad Inserts are included with the saddle pad to provide ultimate shock absorption designed for high athletic performance and intense schooling. Poron® XRD™ with Microban® antimicrobial protection is high performance, high density open-cell foam that absorbs 90% of impact energy from the rider and saddle on the horse's back, as well as minimizing the energy bounce back as the rider lands in the saddle; thus allowing for a more stable, comfortable seat for both horse and rider.
This impressive pad also features three shim pockets on each side of the spine, with two 1/4" felt shims included per pocket. This allows you to customize the fit for every horse and saddle, adjusting for changes in shape of the horse's back or when using the same saddle on multiple horses. The shim pockets sit on top of the inserts, ensuring all the benefits of the Extreme-Pro protection.

Comments: Purchased this for my hard-to-fit Shagya gelding. This has fit him well (over his high withers), does not slip around under the saddle. It has been durable but lightweight. I have used it under both a Western saddle and an endurance saddle and have been very happy with it under both. Well worth the cost. I would definitely purchase again. Considering buying the same type of pad in a different shape to use under my Ghost treeless saddle.
