Wool/Felt Saddle Pad Care Instructions
Our saddle pads have a high percentage of wool content. To avoid shrinkage, do not use hot water to clean, or heat to dry. Occasionally brush your pad with a curry brush. This will dislodge hair, dirt, and sweat to prolong the usefulness of your pad. Grooming Stones, such as Slick’N’Easy also work well for cleaning the underside of your saddle pad.
Wool pads can be washed by scrubbing the dirty spots with a cloth or sponge, using cold water and a small amount of mild liquid wool-washing soap. Hose all the soap off with clean water and allow the pad to air dry in a well-ventilated area. As you’re hosting, be sure to direct the spray from the centre outward toward the edges, so that dirt, sweat, and hair are moved off of the pad and instead of being pushed into the pad.

Another great weekend doing what we love! LJT Ace of Spades stayed fast and consistent and clean all weekend. Friday ran a 16.378, Saturday ran a 16.203 and Sunday 16.113 and was too fast for the 4D! All thanks to his Thinline western felt correction pad with front and mid shims! He felt great and worked amazing! Thank you Thinline for having amazing products!

I absolutely will not ride in anything BUT my ThinLine pads! Whether its the liner or felt correction pad that I have! I absolutely love how both myself and my horses aren’t sore. They are able to stride out more and the pads provide the best shock absorption around! I am more centered and balanced which in return I am able to get my timing correct when I compete! Thank you Thinline for having such an awesome product!

I rode in my thinline western felt correction pad for the first time today. Instantly I could tell the difference between this pad and the pads I have used in the past. I never thought I rode forward until I sat in my saddle with the thinline pad underneath. I felt more centered and I also felt more balanced. I could tell my horse (6yr old appaloosa gelding, LJT Ace of Spades) was moving more freely underneath me and seemed more comfortable. I could even tell a difference in the feel of my seat. Before with past pads I had loose cushion, but with this pad I felt the shock absorption instantly and knew that when my horse and I run our barrel pattern that he would be protected from my movements of sitting deep into the saddle around turns, and it did!

Cynthia Raker: We sell these and I ride in them. I tested this when I was 13…before it became Thinline…swore by it ever since! Ps drop a golf ball on it sometime…pretty impressive.
