Shires saddle pad for jumping

Saddle pads are crucial to your horse’s comfort, and can certainly help with the fit of your saddle. Your horse’s comfort under the saddle is a key factor in his performance and well-being. Many riders do not pay enough attention to this, which can lead to a sore back, and can manifest itself as poor performance, and even behavioral problems. A well-fitting saddle is essential folks, and the correct saddle pad plays a huge part in this.

Shires saddle pad for jumping

First off, you can’t say too much about Shires Equestrian as an equestrian brand. All their products are top quality, and you can always feel confident that what you are buying, will last long, fit well, and be great value for money. The Shires saddle pad is no different. This shires saddle pad is suited for a well-fitted saddle. By that I mean there is no extra padding to compensate for any shortfalls in your saddle fit, it does however have a supper absorbent underside for added comfort. I really love the way this saddle pad is cut. It doesn’t have the usual straight cut on top but is cut to more accurately match the contours of a horse’s back. This obviously makes it much more comfortable. It is also cut back in front which will match the line of your saddle. I think it just has a really sleek, stylish look about it. I love them and highly recommend them. The cool thing about Shires products is that they’re as good as the top brands, but they won’t cost you an arm and a leg. I like to call them the working man’s brand. The vast majority of us aren’t related to Bill Gates but are talented and dedicated horse people that deserve good products at reasonable prices. Get your piece of the action and go out and show them what you’re made of.
