Discount WORLD EQUSTRN BRNDS E.A. Mattes Correction Hunter Pad with Bare Flaps White

The E.A. Mattes Correction Hunter Pad with Bare Flaps is a multifunctional, high-quality pad that can help you adjust the way a saddle fits on your horse. With the Mattes Correction System, you can maintain the balance and straightness of your saddle as your horse moves through the season or you can account for asymmetries in build.

The pad has two pockets in front and two in back that accept Poly-Flex® shims, included. The shims are 5mm thick, designed to be layered and are easily trimmed with scissors. If multiple shims are necessary, you can taper their ends to create a pressure free fit. Poly-Flex is resilient, doesn’t bottom out like foam or other materials, allows incremental adjustments to be made easily and absorbs shock.

Premium quality sheepskin panels under the saddle area provide cushioning, moisture-wicking and airflow. Sheepskin has long been known for its amazing natural properties including heat dissemination, breathability, and the ability to eliminate friction and bounce. This cannot be imitated by wool pile, artificial fiber product, or foam. Spine Free® means that panels of sheepskin have a channel to avoid pressure on the horse’s spine.  

The bare, or unlined, flaps minimize bulk under the rider’s legs. Girth loops add security.
