Thin/close contact numnah recommendations please!

[tobiano1984]

After months of trying to fit a saddle to my fat pudding off a horse, I've finally got one - yay! (Invicta by the way, very reasonable bespoke tack)

When we were trying on every saddle under the sun the best fitting ones were the monoflap or close contact saddles, although they were all dressage or jumping and I wanted GP. So we eventually tailored a GP to be as 'close contact' as possible to avoid the rolling associated with rotund witherless horses.

Now I need to find a numnah/saddlecloth to go with it - I need something as thin as possible. My instructor suggested some rubber half pad but I definitely want something full - after all the money spent on the saddle I don't want it getting sweaty! Can anyone recommend some brands? I really like the Gygax saddlecloths but can't find them over here.

Thanks!

Have a look on Griffin Nuumed's website, they do loads of different designs and thickness of numnahs.

Griffin nuumed CC numnah (or saddlecloth) I use mine with the wow saddle for the very same reasons you have said.

I use the everyday version which is just a thin cotton numnah.

Horse health do some fab ones - I have a problem / addiction ;-)

I like the Le Mieux ones from Horse Health, just their standard gp numnahs are quite thin.

Griffin Nuumed. Lovely Saddlecloths, great quality and wash REALLY well. Nice and thin and good size range which Don't shrink in the wash!

Le Mieux ones are nice and thin and by all accounts wear well. I have several thin HKM ones and Eskadron ones which are fab, dont move and wash well.
