Grainge Sheepskin Pads – A comfortable horse improves competition performance!
The use of shaped sheepskin saddle pads has become popular, and at first glance one could be forgiven for thinking that it is a fashion trend! This is far from the case and just an added bonus.
Here are just some of the reasons why discerning riders use a genuine sheepskin pad as part of their horse’s everyday exercise routine.
- Comfort – allows the horse and rider to work with ease.
- Insulating and moisture control - sheepskin is a natural fibre renowned for its wicking and absorption qualities.
- Evens the riders’ weight distribution.
- Buffers conformational changes - to allow for some physical changes in the horse’s development.
- For sensitive backed horses – cushions the weight bearing panels of the saddle.
Grainge Golden Fleece Balance or Classic Half Pads are made from super soft, resilient Merino wool that has miraculous properties for protecting, healing and comforting. The Grainge Merino Balance or Classic Half Pads are a genuine sheepskin product. Many inferior pads are not natural with more and more synthetic materials being used and because they do not breathe, overheating and irritated skin is often the result.
Sheepskin has been used for generations for its insulating softness, comfort and assistance to hospital patients in their care and rehabilitation. Horse riders have discovered the benefits of using nature’s wonder textile to “fine tune” a perfect saddle fit, “cushioning” the saddle’s weight bearing surfaces which sit against the horse’s back.
There is no escaping the requirement to have the saddle professionally and correctly fitted, but a Grainge Golden Fleece Balance or Classic Half Pad provides the perfect solution to buffer small changes in the horse’s muscular development and weight variations that happen as the horse matures and training progresses.
Here is a special hint for sensitive or cold backed horses or to treat irritated skin under the saddle. Let the soothing properties of wool help to keep your horse comfortable and sound, by putting a Grainge Golden Fleece pad UNDER the saddle blanket, in direct contact with the hores's skin. You can even dress the irritation with a healing cream. After use, wipe the sheepskin with a warm cloth and plain water – your horse will appreciate your consideration, just the way hospital patients appreciate the relief from pressure sores and skin irritations.
Grainge Golden Fleece Balance or Classic Half Pads are available in Small, Medium and Large and Black, Brown, Cream and White.
