Saddle Pads

At Hogsta Ridsport, you'll find saddle pads for both dressage and jumping, from classic plain-coloured designs to more exclusive styles with embroidery and decorative details. Explore popular brands such as Equiline, Vestrum, Samshield and EA Mattes, or design your own saddle pad with your choice of colours and finishing touches.

Choosing the Right Saddle Pad

Saddle pads come in different shapes and sizes to suit various saddle types. Dressage saddle pads have a longer, straighter cut to follow the shape of dressage saddle flaps, while jumping saddle pads are shorter and more forward-cut to fit jumping saddles. All-purpose saddle pads are shaped to suit general-purpose saddles.

Beyond the shape, it's important that the saddle pad provides sufficient clearance around the withers and along the spine without pulling tightly against the horse. It should also be large enough for the saddle panels to sit entirely within its edges.

Sheepskin Saddle Pads

A sheepskin saddle pad is a practical alternative to using a separate saddle pad and sheepskin half pad, as the sheepskin is integrated into the pad itself. Genuine sheepskin provides additional cushioning, helps distribute pressure and reduces friction against the horse's back. At Hogsta Ridsport, you'll find EA Mattes sheepskin saddle pads for both dressage and jumping, all featuring the SPINEFREE® design, which leaves a clear channel along the horse's spine.

For those who need to adjust the balance of their saddle, EA Mattes also offers sheepskin saddle pads with the Correction® system. These feature separate pockets at the front and rear for removable inserts, allowing small adjustments to the saddle's balance, for example as the horse's musculature changes.

Design Your Own Saddle Pad

Looking for a saddle pad with a personal touch? At Hogsta Ridsport, you can design your own saddle pad from Equality Line, Equiline or Mias RS, choosing from different combinations of colours, bindings and piping depending on the design.

The Octagon and E-Logo saddle pads can also be paired with a matching, custom-designed fly hood, allowing you to create a coordinated look for training or competition.
