Pony saddle pads

Pony Saddle Pads

A pony saddle pad is an important part of a pony’s riding equipment. It sits between the saddle and the pony’s back and helps provide comfort during riding.

Pony saddle pads are designed for smaller ponies and should fit correctly underneath the particular saddle without restricting movement or creating unwanted pressure.

Pony Saddle Pads for Everyday Riding

Pony saddle pads are suitable for everyday riding, training and leisure activities.

When choosing a saddle pad, consider the correct size, shape and cut for your saddle and pony. The material should also be breathable and capable of managing moisture during exercise.

Pony Jumping Saddle Pads

For ponies involved in show jumping, pony jumping saddle pads are designed to complement jumping saddles.

A well-fitting jumping saddle pad should provide sufficient coverage underneath the saddle while remaining stable during riding and jumping.

The Greenfieldshop range includes several jumping saddle pad designs, including Greenfield Arrow and Greenfield Cookie models.

Sweat-Wicking Pony Saddle Pads

During riding, it is important that the saddle pad can effectively manage sweat and moisture.

Sweat-wicking pony saddle pads help keep the area underneath the saddle more comfortable during exercise. Some models available in the category are specifically described as being made from sweat-absorbing textile.

How to Choose the Right Pony Saddle Pad

When choosing a pony saddle pad, consider the size and shape of the saddle, the size and build of your pony and the intended use.

The saddle pad should provide sufficient coverage underneath the saddle without being unnecessarily large. It should also allow enough clearance around the withers.

How Should a Pony Saddle Pad Fit?

A saddle pad should sit symmetrically underneath the saddle and should not move excessively during riding.

Before riding, make sure the saddle pad is positioned correctly and does not have folds or create pressure points. The saddle itself should always be correctly fitted to the individual pony.

Stylish Pony Saddle Pads

Pony saddle pads are not only functional but can also complement your pony’s overall riding look.

Choose from different colours, patterns and decorative trims to create a coordinated appearance with the rest of your pony’s equipment.

Matching Pony Collections

Some pony saddle pads can be combined with other pieces from the same colour collection, such as ear bonnets, fleece rugs and other pony accessories. Some products in the current range specifically mention the possibility of creating a matching set.

How to Care for a Pony Saddle Pad

After riding, allow the saddle pad to dry thoroughly and remove sweat, hair and dirt.

Always follow the manufacturer’s washing instructions for the specific saddle pad. Regular care helps maintain the material’s properties and extend its lifespan.
