The Kentucky Glitter Band saddle pad is an anatomically shaped pad in breathable honeycomb fabric, with a subtle glitter binding along the edge. It comes in a jumping version and a dressage version, and is meant for riders who want to combine a smart, slightly eye-catching look with a pad that stays in place and keeps their horse's back cool.
About this saddle pad
The Kentucky Glitter Band saddle pad owes its name to the glitter binding that runs along the edge. It gives the pad a luxurious finish, but stays limited to the border, which keeps the whole thing smart without taking over. That makes it just as usable for a training session as for a competition or a tidy stable outfit.
More important than the look is the shape. The saddle pad is anatomically cut: it follows the horse's topline and is shaped so that it helps limit pressure around the wither. A straight-cut pad often pulls tight over the wither when you saddle up; an anatomical cut leaves room there. As a result the pad stays settled under the saddle, without unnecessary slipping or rubbing, and your horse can keep moving more freely and more relaxed.
The outer fabric has a honeycomb structure. It feels firm, is breathable and dries quickly, which keeps your horse comfortable during more intensive work and on warmer days. The padding underneath is soft and forms a pleasant layer between saddle and back, but stays thin enough to preserve saddle contact. So you do not lose feel in your seat, which matters most when you work with fine aids.
Finally, there is the choice. The model comes in several colours, so you can pick a version that suits your horse, your competition outfit or your stable collection. The design also leaves room for embroidery, which is interesting if you want to ride with a recognisable, professional house style.
