Fleeceworks Therawool half-lined shimmable cross-country pad
An outstanding half-lined x-country/eventing saddlecloth with correction shim pockets: Fleeceworks' quality and clever design, with the practicality of wool
Why we chose it:
-
Luxury with easy care: Fleeceworks' Therawool™ made with an Australian Merino wool blend for softness and robustness: provides much of the cushioning and thermal protection of sheepskin with easy care. Machine washes beautifully on a wool cycle, won't felt up or mat
- Effective: The dense real wool pile cut to the optimum length for breathability, protects against concussion and pressure points
- Breathable: The 1 inch length of the wool coupled with carefully selected quilting and backing provide a high level of breathability throughout the pad
- Clever design: Built-in pockets for optional Perfect Balance riser inserts (see "You may also like" below), allow the pad to adapt to the contours of the horse's back and aid saddle fit by helping perfect the saddle's balance.
Comes with removable full-length thin memory foam shims for extra cushioning and comfort
"I love this pad! It's so clever with its hidden memory foam pocket, because it allows me to adapt to my horse's changing shape as I get him fitter or if he drops weight off during the season. It also washes brilliantly - the wool holds up very well to repeated washings! Good cut and doesn't add bulk".
