The Bucas Max saddle pad is layered with Bucas’ anti-bacterial stay-dry fabric to help ensure they stay fresh. This layer helps remove sweat and moisture from the horse’s back, ensuring a comfortable fit. The pad is available in dressage and all-purpose/jumping shape, in black with silver piping, navy with silver piping, navy with gold piping, or white with white piping.
