I absolutely love the Le Mieux saddle pads and that's all I ever use but my horse tends to moult soo much the after 1 ride the saddle cloths are absolutely covered! I use the suede ones as the cotton ones slip with my saddles but didn't know if any others that people may recommend?

I need a pad like that.
I hate modern saddle pads.
My pony gets too hot in sheepskin and it’s a nightmare to clean his long white hair from it
Why do the material ones all collect hair in the edges of the binding, in the quilting stitches and still manage to weave their way into the thread of the material as well?

At coat shedding times I revert to plain cotton saddle cloths, it's not that long in the big scheme of things.
Then, the rest of the time I use older PS, ES or Equito pads, the Equito are my favourite of the lot, apart from the old brick orange Equestrian Stockholm one.

F moults to a greater or lesser degree all year round. First pony I’ve had that’s done this.

I only laugh as my little one is only non shedding about 4 months of the year.
June, mid Nov to v early Feb

I forgive you.
At the moment F is shedding millions of short hairs. In the spring some hairs are 4” long.
He wasn’t clipped winter before last. I think I could have stuffed a mattress.
