Halfpad with reindeer fur underneath!
Reindeer hide is considered to be the world's best saddle pad with its outstanding features, voted Best in Test in a saddle pad test conducted by three researchers of the Movement Science Group in Vienna. Read more here! The reindeer fur is dense, the hairs are air-filled which creates an insulating and phenomenal pressure-relieving effect. Wonderfully soft against the horse, warming and protecting the horse's skin. Moisture repellent and prevents chafing, making reindeer hides particularly suitable for sensitive/thin-skinned horses, horses with difficult saddle positions and unmuscled horses.
This fine pad has the highest quality reindeer fur (AAA grade) sewn into the underside of the saddle pad with a channel for the spine. The reindeer fur is dense and durable and has undergone a
special tanning process for higher sweat resistance. Bartl does not process "patchwork" (sewn together pieces) as each seam can create pressure. Anatomically shaped pad with room for the withers, made of quilted cotton twill. Nylon straps to attach the paddle to the saddle.
Two sizes (see separate image above for how we measure the pad!):Size 1 = 58 cm. Fits saddles 16" - 17."’

CARE INSTRUCTIONS:- After use: shake off and leave to dry with the fur side facing up in a well-ventilated place
- Use a soft care brush (such as the BARTL care brush) and brush in the direction of the fur
- Vacuum the skin from time to time: use a regular vacuum cleaner but select the lowest setting and work carefully from top to bottom
- Bartl's reindeer skin products can be washed by hand in warm water up to a maximum of 30 degrees Celsius. Use a special detergent for leather (not regular detergent). Do not dry in the sun or over heat sources
- Avoid walking or standing on the skin to prevent the hair from breaking off
