Product Information

Full details

The ThinLine Comfort Bareback Saddle Pad is ideal for riders seeking a deeper connection with their horse while prioritizing superior shock absorption and spinal protection. Featuring proprietary open-cell foam technology, this pad aids in developing core strength and stability; however, users should note that the one-size-fits-all design may require careful adjustment for extremely narrow or wide equine builds to ensure maximum comfort.

FAQs

Can I use this on a draft horse?

Yes, the girth system is adjustable from 23 to 55 inches, making it suitable for draft horses as well as ponies.

Does this pad provide enough protection for long rides?

The ThinLine open-cell foam is designed for excellent shock absorption, though comfort levels depend on the rider's physical condition and the duration of the ride.

How do I clean the leather parts?

Use a quality leather cleaner and conditioner to keep the reinforced billets supple and prevent cracking.

Does it have a specific front or back?

Yes, ensure the pad is oriented with the front D-rings positioned near the withers.

Is the girth machine washable?

The included neoprene girth should be hand-washed with mild soap and water, not placed in a machine.

Troubleshooting

Pad slips during lateral work

Ensure the girth is tightened evenly and the waffle-weave underside is free of hair and dirt buildup.

Billet straps are difficult to feed through buckles

Check for dried sweat or leather conditioner residue; wipe the billets clean and ensure they are not twisted.

Foam appears compressed

ThinLine foam is designed not to compress; if it looks flattened, inspect for trapped debris that may be obstructing the foam's natural recovery.

Pros and Cons

Pros

Superior shock-absorbing foam prevents spinal pressure
Non-slip design ensures stability without requiring excessive cinching
Extremely versatile sizing fits almost any horse or pony
Low-maintenance materials are easy to clean with water

Cons

One-size-fits-all may not provide a custom fit for extreme conformations
The brown leather aesthetic requires occasional conditioning to maintain appearance
Lacks the traditional structure of a treed saddle for long-distance trail riders

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To set up the pad, center it on the horse's spine with the ThinLine foam side facing up. Adjust the girth using the leather-reinforced billets until it is snug but comfortable for the horse. The adjustable girth reach allows for seamless transitions between different horses. For care, keep the pad in optimal condition by hosing off the bottom waffle-weave layer after each ride to remove debris and sweat. The top surface can be spot cleaned with a soft cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals, as they can break down the integrity of the foam over time.
