FAQs

Does this numnah require special cleaning?

No, the ARMA SupaFleece Numnah is machine washable on a gentle cycle with mild detergent. It is designed for easy care and quick drying.

How does this compare to real sheepskin?

It offers a similar look and feel to real sheepskin, with added benefits of being more durable, easier to wash, and faster to dry, while still providing excellent protection and comfort.

What size should I choose?

The numnah should be chosen based on the saddle size and the horse's back length. It should cover the area under the saddle without extending too far forward or backward.

Can I use this numnah with a jumping saddle?

Yes, the numnah is designed to be compatible with most English saddles, including jumping saddles. Ensure a proper fit for stability.

Will this numnah help prevent sores?

Yes, its smooth material and cushioning help to protect against friction and pressure points, reducing the risk of sores and chafing.

How often should the numnah be washed?

It can be washed as frequently as needed, depending on usage. For horses in regular work, washing after several rides or when visibly dirty is recommended.

Troubleshooting

Numnah slips during riding

Ensure all retaining straps and girth straps are securely fastened. Check that the numnah size is appropriate for the saddle and horse. A properly fitted saddle is also crucial.

Material appears matted or flattened

Brush the SupaFleece gently with a soft brush to restore its loft. Ensure it is not being over-dried in a machine dryer. Air drying is often best.

Touch-close straps lose adhesion

Clean the hook-and-loop surfaces gently with a stiff brush to remove trapped dirt and debris. Ensure straps are fastened during washing to keep them clean.

  • The 'sheepskin look' might not be preferred by all riders.
  • Touch-close straps can attract debris if not stored properly.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Place the numnah smoothly over the horse's back, ensuring it lies flat.
  2. Position the saddle on top of the numnah.
  3. Secure the numnah using the integrated touch-close retaining straps to the saddle D-rings.
  4. Fasten the touch-close girth straps to the girth to prevent slipping.

Compatibility:
