Sheepskin half-pad with shims?

[Sprig]

I have found the Mattes one, are there any others? I need something to use to fix a temporary saddle fitting issue but would use a sheepskin half-pad long term so would rather buy something like that than a Prolite, for example.

I use the Nummed ones they are really good about £100 but they do last and wash up lovely, I did see some second hand ones on Preloved the other week.

Nuumed do a really good one. Also Premier Equine do a shin pad but its not sheepskin covered

I've got the Le Mieux Pro-sorb one, really rate it. It's around £70 new.

So pleased to hear that Le Mieux do one. I have found their sheepskin pads to be the best in the past.

What size do you need? i have a le mieux one that is sitting goind nothing and was used a few times. PM if interested.

Le mieux. Saddle fitter rates these best, and I have one (standard not shim model) and love it. Its lasted 5 years now and still looks smart and cleans up well after a wash. Whichever you choose according to saddler always make sure its a 'clear spine' model as she says sheepskin over spine can cause uncomfortable pressure pulling down on back when being ridden.

Thanks Becca. I did not think any of them had sheepskin over the spine, I have certainly never seen one. Maybe it is sone of the cheapy fake sheepskin ones that do.
