Alpha Equestrian Note: Looking for a sheepskin lined saddle pad? We are big fans of the Mattes PM system, which allows for the coupling of half pads with bare pads. This allows for easier washing, as the sheepskin half pad can be washed separately. Customers are also able to use one half pad with a number of quilted pads, which come at a lower price point. We think this is a fantastic system that everyone should try!

Product Description

This design can be modified to suit! Contact Alpha Equestrian to custom design a saddle pad, bonnet, girth, or other accessories to coordinate with your favorite apparel, tack, and horse!

E.A. Mattes Options:

SPINEFREE® Design: Reliably prevents any pressure around the withers and spinous processes.

SADDLE-FIX® System: Allows the top seam of the saddle pad to be attached comfortably within the gullet of the saddle.

CORRECTION® System: Designed with a choice of one or two pockets; we supply three 5 mm-thick felt shims (POLY-FLEX®) for each pocket, offering the same pressure relief as a good quality new saddle, padded with wool and horsehair. MATTES developed the CORRECTION® System to allow flexible and easy changes to saddle fit by up to 30 mm: to easily compensate for the rapid physical development of young horses in training, for horses that have been out of work for some time, or for trained horses which change shape a lot during the competition season, whenever quick alterations are needed. Simply add extra shims, or just as importantly, remove them, to suit the horse’s changing shape.

Care Instuctions

MATTES® sheepskin items should be washed frequently. Correct care and washing (see MATTES® special MELP detergent) is very important and will provide you with many more years of enjoyment from your product.

There is a possibility of dye bleeding into the horses hair or other materials from dark or bright colored skin. This is typically due to sweat or the use of unsuitable washing detergent.

See the above link for complete care instructions for all Mattes products.

Technical Description

The core of the saddle pad is made of two layers. POLY-FLEX® (a deep-needled polyester felt) is used to maintain the shape and spread the pressure, while polyester wadding provides padding. We completely avoid foam, neoprene or gel, making the whole pad breathable.
