After hearing nothing but good things about Thinline products from my saddle fitter, I purchased the Cotton Trifecta Half Pad. My extremely sensitive mare and I both LOVE it! The feel, pressure dissipation and breathability of this pad is outstanding and it’s easy to use and clean. My old pads simply don’t compare and I’m looking to utilize Thinline products in my western riding and carriage driving gear in the future as well. Fabulous product!

This is an amazing pad! I have it in white which I use everyday and when showing. This pad gives me peace of mind. I know when my horse and I are galloping on the cross country course her back is supported and protected. This pad also helps me to feel more stable in my position. I have had this pad for about three years. Since I have the pad in white, it gets dirty but with a little soap and elbow grease it looks like new! This is the best pad that I use on both of my horses. I love that it has shims but I that I can use it without the shims as well!

My horses are so much more
comfortable in their thinline than with any other pad. You can certainly tell a difference in their demeanor and their performance. I use this with every horse that I ride and it’s easy to add shims to for correcting saddle fit. I’ve had it for years and there are no signs of wear and it’s super easy to clean. I will never use another half pad!

Use this pad every ride. Currently I have been through a number of horses looking for a suitable lease situation. I have been able to use the shims to fix minor fit issues with my saddle and the horses seem quite happy. As the current horse has poor topline development, the pad helps him to accept weight on his back and lift, instead of hollowing away.
These pads are sturdy (had mine for years and use it everyday) and wash really well.

Love this pad! I use it every time I ride, even though I have a brand new saddle. It just adds that extra layer of protection and comfort. It’s well made and attractive. I have other ThinLine products as well. I’m a big fan!
