ThinLine Full Sheepskin Comfort Half Pad

An advanced half pad designed to improve saddle fit and rider comfort, the ThinLine Full Sheepskin Comfort Half Pad blends ThinLine foam with Merino woven wool and a robust cotton base for durable performance. It offers a non-slip surface, shock absorption, and a close, balanced feel that encourages smoother contact between horse and rider.. ThinLine top layer: Open-cell foam across the top of the pad provides shock absorption and a non-slip surface to help stabilise the saddle during movement.. Two-panel raised wither profile: Built to accommodate more top lines, delivering a better fit for horses with higher withers.. Merino woven wool on synthetic hide: Dense premium Merino wool needled onto a fabric backing (no natural hide) for consistent density, easy care, and long-lasting performance.. Pocket for saddle-fitting shims: A dedicated pocket beneath the ThinLine layer allows minor saddle fit adjustments with shims for precise tuning.. Spine channel with spine-free centre band: Centre band is tapered to minimise bulk over the spine while maintaining support and comfort.. Heavy-duty cotton base with billet straps: Dense weave cotton base provides durability and secure billet strap anchorage for secure saddle placement.. Sizes and colours: Available in Small, Medium, and Large; colours include Black, White, Natural, and Dark Brown.. Care and warranty: Machine washable; comes with a full-year warranty when cared for according to the included guidelines.. Professional endorsement: ThinLine technology is recognised by surgeons, veterinarians, and master saddlers for its balance of shock absorption and rider motion reduction.. Benefits: This pad supports a healthier rider–horse connection by reducing saddle movement and aiding a balanced position, thanks to the combination of ThinLine’s motion absorption and the secure, non-slip surface. The removable shim pocket allows quick saddle-fit tweaks for minor adjustments, making it suitable for horses with small fit variances or changing saddle setups. Merino woven wool provides year-round comfort—soft and breathable in summer, warm and moisture-wicking in winter—while being easier to care for than traditional wool on hides. With its spine-free centre band and reinforced cotton base, it’s designed for durability, straightforward maintenance, and long-term use under daily riding.
