Why should you purchase a basic ThinLine pad instead of a shimmable ThinLine Pad?

££ Price and Longevity– The ThinLine foam will remain functional for 7-10 years, depending on use. Basic pads will cost you less than £1.00 per month.

Versatility– Basic pads may be placed over any other saddle pad and may be used on multiple horses.

Maintenance– Basic pads require no care or washing.

Basic Half Pad or Contour Half Pad?

Half Pads offer a discrete amount of protection directly under your saddle. Contour pads add protection under the stirrup bar and will help control left to right saddle slip. ThinLine absorbs impact by moving it laterally along the pad. Unless the price is a serious barrier, we suggest you choose the contour pad; the more ThinLine foam you have, the better it works.

Riding over a lifetime can take its toll on a rider’s spine. Ultra ThinLine can drastically reduce the aches and pains that come from a time in the saddle bymoving shock, weight, and heat laterally along the pad without compressing. Horses backs also benefit from the 95% shock absorption and from having a quieter ride in the saddle.

Tack Care Instructions

ThinLine Tack is extremely easy to take care of. We do strongly recommend using our all-natural ThinLine Cleaners when wiping down and cleaning your ThinLine Tack. It works great for our reins, boots, girths and more. Using baby wipes or a little simple dish soap works well for quick cleans up too.

To ensure the longevity of your ThinLine Tack. It is important to keep it away from chemicals such as Show Sheen, Fly Sprays, Leather Oils, etc. This can cause the ThinLine foam to harden. Be certain to clean thoroughly if they come in contact. If you are conditioning a leather portion of ThinLine Tack, we recommend using a paste-like style to control the application.
