sizes of saddlecloths

[johannapage]

ok, ive spent ages looking onlie and now give up so i hope someone can help!!

Im treating my loan pony (14.2hh cob x nf) to a new saddlecloth, the one ove seen is on good old ebay and is a pony size, Just wondering if this is going to fit ok and how much size difference is there between a pony size and full size?

its a shires quilted saddlecloth if that helps anymore

Thanks so much

Jo

i would go for a cob size or what size is she in
there is alot of difference between pony and full
i use a cob on my 14hh welsh cob mare

hmm, they only do small or large sizes..
buggerness

this isnt going very well!

have you got a friend that has got a full to try on and see pony will be defently to small you might get away with full but i would try before getting a full

ooo I've just bought one of those for my ponio...and I have no idea what size it is (It was in a bargain bin)!!! But it is quite big, seems to fit him fine though

cob size

I have the same problem, a 14hh native type pony and he varies between pony and cob size for tack, depending on make, and I buy large in the Nuumed numnahs I use. I would go for large, would rather it be too big than too small.

It's always better to have it slightly bigger than too small otherwise the saddle will sit on the binding around the edges of the cloth and make the pony sore

My little cob in pic below who is 14.3hh is wearing a Full Size saddlecloth .... I prefer them to be generous and therefore the saddle will not 'sit' on any binding

April is 14.2 (in my signature) and she always takes full sizes in saddlecloths

I've always wondered why saddle cloths are sold in Pony, Cob & Full sizes? Why aren't they sold in saddle sizes, then you'd get the correct size.

Brandy (pic below) is 14.2hh and has to have either cob or full-size depending on make (cob in Shires). I made the fatal error of buying a pony-sized one and it was like trying to dress a dining table with a handkerchief.
