New fleece saddle pad range available in the UK
A new range from Californian sheepskin saddle pad company Fleeceworks is now available in the UK, from online retailer Shadow Horse.
The “Therawool” saddle pad collection uses merino wool, weaved onto a poly-acrylic backing.
“The manufacturing process ensures that the pads are durable, breathable, easy to wash and can even be tumble dried,” said a spokesman for Shadow Horse.
“Unlike some wool pads on the market, they will not ‘felt up’ with continued use or washing.”
The collection includes dressage, showjumping, cross-country and general purpose styles.
All the pads come in white, sizes medium or large, with prices starting at £66.
