Care For Your Pad

Easy Care: Keeping your Equitex Pad pristine is effortless. Machine washable at 86ºF (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.
Please avoid folding your pad to prevent creasing the felt

No 1 for Impact Absorption: Uber Breathable: Non-Slip: No Straps: Improved Saddle Fit: No Rubbing: Durable: Easy Care: Built in Half Pad: Premium saddle pad.  Equitex Felt Dressage Saddle Pad

Designed for competitive dressage riders and trainers in the U.S., the Equitex Felt Dressage Pad delivers unmatched impact protection, precise saddle fit, and all-day comfort—without the need for additional half pads or fasteners.

This pad integrates two advanced materials in one streamlined, performance-driven design:

What Sets It Apart

  • Dense Wool Felt Upper– Naturally absorbs and disperses shock, offering exceptional pressure relief and spinal comfort without added bulk.
  • Integrated Equitex Half Pad – Built directly into the pad to support proper saddle balance, spinal clearance, and targeted cushioning exactly where it's needed.

Together, these layers create a lightweight, dual-performance system that protects the horse’s back, promotes freer movement, and simplifies your tack routine.

Key Features for U.S. Dressage Riders

  • Superior Impact Absorption – Ideal for sensitive-backed horses and high-intensity work.
  • Built-In Half Pad – Improves saddle fit without extra padding or adjustment.
  • Non-Slip, Strap-Free Fit – Anatomical shape stays in place through lateral movements, transitions, and collected work.
  • No Rubbing or Pressure Points – Designed to move with your horse while maintaining coat protection.
  • Durable and Machine Washable – Easy to care for and built to last in a busy barn environment.
  • Cut for Dressage Saddles – Tailored to fit most standard dressage saddles used across North America. 

Size Guide

  • Full (58cm x 55cm) – Fits most 17–18" dressage saddles (generally suited for horses 15.2hh and up)
  • Medium (54cm x 51cm) – Best for 16–16.5" saddles or horses under 15.1hh

We also offer Spanish-cut and Numnah-style options for alternative saddle shapes or fit preferences.

Dressage Show Colors in the U.S.

While white is the standard for U.S. dressage competitions, USEF/USDF rules allow for conservative, non-distracting colors. Acceptable options often include black, navy, grey, and cream. When in doubt, check your show’s rulebook or prize list.
