Amazing! Just wanted a pad to mainly comfort my horse. What I got is beyond expectations. It comforts my back a well thus sitting in the sattle happens just like that and doesn’t need to be worked on so hard. Both of us are happy ever after.

My mare had some saddle fitting issues when I first got her, so now my priority is for her to be comfortable in her back. She really does seem to go nicely in the thinline, and I have been amazed at its breathability properties- under her saddle is now one of the last places she sweats. There was a problem with my order but they couldn’t have been more helpful. I would highly recommend.

Horse has long term back/neck pain so very useful and helpful in making him comfortable.

Worth it’s money. I can feel the difference in my horse. I have a newly customized LJ Leathers dressage saddle and I actually don’t need a half pad like this under my saddle but this simply has added value.
