Care For Your Pad

Easy Care: Keeping your Equitex Pad pristine is effortless. Machine washable at 86°F (delicate cycle) with a max spin of 300 rpm, these pads resist dirt and hair accumulation, reducing the need for frequent washing. After riding, simply turn the pad upside down to air dry. Once dry, brush or wipe off any loose hairs or salt residue. For competition pads, they can even be hosed down or jet washed to achieve a pristine finish.

Equitex Correctional Half Pad – Built-In Front Lift for Saddle Balance & Muscle Development

Designed for jumping, eventing, and everyday training, the Equitex Correctional Half Pad features 4 cm rise in the front and a 2 cm foam at the rear, providing targeted support to rebalance the saddle. This makes it ideal for horses with muscle atrophy behind the shoulder or underdeveloped toplines.

Key Features:

Built-in lift at the front – 4 cm thickness supports balance for horses needing help behind.
2 cm rear foam – Keeps contact close while allowing front elevation.
90% pressure reduction – Foam compresses and reforms instantly to maintain comfort.
Promotes muscle development – Supports rehab and training goals.
No shims required – Ready-to-use design, no inserts or adjustments needed.
Non-slip & strap-free – Stable under the saddle, no shifting and slipping.
Ultra-breathable & easy care – Machine washable and fast drying.
Durable for daily use – Built for high-volume barns and pro trainers.

Instructions for Use:

Place the correctional half pad directly on the horse’s back to ensure full contact and benefit. It can be used on its own or with a thin cotton saddle pad on top. This setup ensures proper spinal clearance, sweat-wicking, coat protection, and shock absorption.

Ideal For:

Horses with muscle atrophy or uneven toplines
Saddles that sit too low in the back
Trainers and rehab programs working on topline development
Riders who need immediate saddle balance without using shims
