Western Horse Saddle Pad, Mesh, Shock Absorbing Gel Saddle Pad Seat for Stable Riding and Spine Protection, Durable Equine Supplies

I bought this gel pad for my saddle seat because I have been having some nerve pain in my back and I've been getting a little saddle sore. We usually go on long trail rides (5 miles or more) and I needed something to cushion the pressure on the pressure points of my butt.😁 My saddle has a 14 inch seat and this pad fits really good. It hooks onto the horn of the saddle with a nylon loop strap and across the cantle of the saddle with a nylon stretchy strap, so it could easily fit different sizes of saddles. It can be taken off and on easily. I've ridden with it on really hot days and it hasn't gotten too hot for comfort. Haven't ridden in the Winter with it yet so I'll let you know how comfortable it is for Winter riding. So far I love it. It's helped me to not get saddle sore on our long rides. The only drawback I have is that it does slide in the seat a tiny bit but nothing that would bother me or make me hate it. It has helped me to have the comfort that I need to keep my back and my hips from acting up on me. I give it two thumbs way up. I LOVE it. I would definitely recommend it to anyone who rides a lot. Adding to my earlier review (4-6-23) I have used this pad on my saddle for over a year now and I still love it. I tie the back nylon stretchy strap (cantle strap) down with my saddle strings so it doesn’t slip around. This pad has really saved me from my nerve pain in my hip and back. I will not ride without it anymore. Awesome pad! Edited 2-16-24: I’ve had this nice seat pad for 3 years now and it has finally wore out on me. First the stretchy strap broke and now the gel pad inside the seat detached from its plastic covering and got a bunch of wrinkles in it that were hard to flatten out. I suppose I could put a new plastic covering on the gel and sew on a new stretchy strap but we’ll see. Just wanted to let you all know that I’ve rode on this gel pad quite a bit and it’s pretty wore out. It really saved my hind end though and kept me from pinching a nerve again so for that I am grateful! I would still give it 4 stars even though it has lasted only 3 years.

Loved it so much I ordered one for each western saddle. Really makes the seat comfortable for longer rides. Easy to put on and stays put!

This item is very good quality and is very comfy on my working saddle. I can sit on it and be comfortable for lessons and schooling. My only complaint is that it is large, not subtle at all, no hiding it and it stands out a lot so I can’t horse show in it. It is a great item for trail riding and lesson work, just not good for me for horse shows.

Has worked well for me. My saddle has a seat as hard as a rock--that's why I got it from a lady cheap. I've used this for over 3 years now & am very happy with it. I am careful not to put extra strain on it when mounting and dismounting so as to not wear out the straps. I had a friend whose similar pad had straps that wore out. So far mine is fine. I recommend it.

If you're an equestrian who's suffered a tailbone injury, then you know my own story all too well. Every time I rode again, even 2 years post injury, I'd suffer from terrible arthritic pain coming back to haunt me. This pad has really made the difference and has allowed me to literally get back into the saddle. I highly recommend it if you suffer from tailbone arthritis and still want to ride. I like that it was easy to install and it syays on so well that I am able to leave it on my saddle, even when I have to stow it horn down in the back of my SUV or truck. It has a grippy underside too, so it doesnt shift or slide when riding (even in a lope or trot). Five stars!

I like this saddle seat pad it just needs to be more a little bit more thick. It dont slip and fits my saddle prefect.

Easy to put on saddle, very comfortable, not hot.

This works very well on my saddle. Helps absorb the trot movement if not posting. My saddle is well worn and I’m not wanting to buy a new one at this time. Works great!

Good product. I love wish it was a little thicker as I have a boney butt. Fits great on a western saddle and stays in place very well. Quality product.

Tam bir ar-ge ürünü. Çok güzel ve amaca hizmet ediyor. Jel ne kadar süre dayanacak kullandıkça paylaşım yapacağım.

Wonderful, I love it. Very comfortable

Very good

Great idea, maybe because l have a older Western Saddle it didnt hold too well, it slipped at the back , did think of attaching clips to the side rings of my saddle or returning . Did find the service very good from Amazon.
