What is your most used saddle pad?

[arizonahoney]

I have a lot of Griffin Nuumed high wither numnahs with sheepy bits and they are great, but I would quite like something a bit...brighter! Maybe I am just reacting to the low light levels at the moment.

Recommendations welcome!

i don't do sheepy bits (saddler says if i did start using them i'd have to get saddle reflocked to fit )

but i really rate my nuumed everyday high wither numnahs for comps and hunting - and HKM saddle pads for every day - i love their jumping style numnah for jump saddle (not square - not numnah shaped - difficult to describe - here it is: http://www.hkm-sportsequipment.eu/a...034&e4=001002034047&search=jumping&startpos=0
and their dressage saddle pad for... well... dressage saddle

oh - HKM do 100's of colours

There is that great saying that springs to mind.....if it ain't broke why fix it?

I don't use anything else but my Nuumed high wither ones I can't rate them highly enough. I have a couple of everyday ones and a couple of the half wool ones, I have a white saddlecloth for dressage and brown numnah for everything else

I have some HKM ones, but they never sit quite right for me... The Nuumed ones are hard to fault in that respect.

The nuumed ones are nice but don't sit right on mine. My favourites are the Bucas Max pad and the Kieffer one. Once on, they stay put and wick away moisture really well.
I have a couple of full sheepskins, they're great but can't use them as the saddles are fitted to the horses. Shame.

I just have a bog standard weatherbeeta one (thin) for summer use and a polypad for if he drops off in winter. Also a prolite front riser that sometimes I use if he needs a little lift at the front but that's it really!

I've had the polypad for 12 years, so I suppose that is my most used one!

Gorgeous colours, more expensive than some but worth it, I think! Never slip & last forever

Bog standard. Doesn't slip, does the job!

But through summer I didn't use one.

my polypad had it for years and still going strong

 

[NicoleS_007]

Polypad as its quick and simple But if i have alot of time on my hands then a half pad sheepskin and a saddlecloth (mostly shires)

I love my Nuumed Griffin High wither with sheepy bits! I keep putting it on my Christmas and Birthday lists - but I still have only one.... and three horses!!!

So, I can honestly say that they wash brilliantly as well!

I LOVE the Weatherbeeta Cotton GP numnahs, I have 2 and they're great. I've got 2 thin polypads that I quite like as well.

 

[FunkyFilly28]

I use Legacy saddlecloths. They come in loads of different colours and wash well too.

prolite pads or polypads....
