Category: Western Saddle Fittings/Pads

Purchase: I bought 2; one from E-Bay Distributer, and one from an online Tack Store in Canada. Around $500 each Canadian dollars.

Likes: Soft, dense 100% virgin wool pads in great solid colors. Mine are 3/4" thick, 32" x 32". These pads have formed to my horses back, with no dry spots after workouts. It's not necessary to use an underpad with them and they clean easily with a soft rubber sponge type thing.

Dislikes: Only the cost, but quality costs.

Quality: These pads are very well made, and after 6 months of use, look brand new. At this rate, they should hold up for years, which again justifies the original investment.

Summary: I love these pads, and am so happy to have bought them. To make them a bit fancier, I just cover them with more colorful saddle blankets. I am really really satisfied.
