Dover Saddlery
Sheepskin Half Pad
English Saddle Fittings/Pads
Manufacturer: Dover Saddlery
Model: Sheepskin Half Pad
Category: English Saddle Fittings/Pads
Purchase: I purchased this pad from the Dover Catalogue on sale for $69.00. I bought the all purpose version in white.
Likes: The sheepskin is a very nice quality, the billet straps are also very nice and the top quilting is also lovely. Overall the quality of this product is very nice. I also like the fact that it is washable. I have not washed it yet.
Dislikes: The only thing I do not like about this product is that it only comes in one size. I have a 17.5 inch saddle and the pad is still too big. I called customer service and they told be the dressage version is two inches shorter. I will not show in this pad because it is too big and tends to look a little sloppy. Also the part that goes under the cantle is too wide. I can't imagine what a kid on a pony would look like using this pad.
Quality: Overall the quality is very nice. A good quality pad for the price. Too bad it only comes in one size. I would probable spend the money and buy a more expensive pad that I could purchase in the correct size if I had it to do over again.
Summary: A really nice pad at a decent price. I would spend the extra money if you plan to show in it and buy a pad that comes in different sizes.
