T3 Matrix Western Shim Felt Horse Saddle Pad with Ortho-Impact Protection Inserts

The technology used to protect NFL players is now available to protect your horse in this all-in-one T3 Matrix Western Shim Saddle Pad with Ortho-Impact Protection. The Shim feature includes three internal full-length pockets on either side of the spine, each pre-filled with two 1/4" customizable felt shims for a total of 12 shims. Shims allow the rider to adjust an imperfect saddle fit, or compensate for asymmetrical muscle development. Build up side-to-side or front-to-back, as needed. Full length Ortho-Impact Protection Inserts cushion, protect, and absorb up to 90% of the energy transferred between horse and rider. Inserts are treated with Microban for antimicrobial protection. A Velcro closure the full length of the spine allows for easy access to the Shims and Ortho-Impact inserts. Constructed of a rugged, non-slip, military-grade fabric topper and a compression-resistant, orthopedic-grade felt lining. To clean and care for this pad, remove inserts and shims, brush, hose, and hang to dry. This T3 Matrix Western Shim Saddle Pad is extremely lightweight and breathable, features high profile for maximum wither clearance, ergonomic design for maximum freedom of movement, and correctly placed cut-out for close-contact leg position.

About the Ortho Impact inserts: The Ortho inserts combine a layer of ultra-light, contouring high density Poron XRD with a layer of medium density memory foam. The Poron XRD provides a superior protection by absorbing 90% of impact while the memory foam cushions and conforms to the back. Ortho is a great performance insert that can also help compensate for saddle fit and muscle development. Ortho-Impact protects the horse while minimizing the shock felt by the rider, offering back relief and a more secure seat.
