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 Spanish Dressage Loden Saddle Pad – Maximum Breathability. Unrivaled Back Protection.

The Equitex Spanish Dressage Loden Pad is crafted for riders who demand performance and polish in equal measure. Designed to meet the needs of U.S. dressage competitors and trainers, this pad combines superior back protection with timeless European craftsmanship.

The outer layer is made from traditional Loden wool—a dense, water-resistant fabric originally developed in the Austrian Alps. Soft yet durable, it offers a classic look with hard-wearing performance. Underneath, our signature TechVelvet lining wicks away sweat, prevents friction, and protects your horse’s coat during intense schooling or long show days.

Every pad is anatomically shaped for a close, non-slip fit under modern dressage saddles, with generous wither clearance and a contoured spine that stays in place without straps.

Key Features for Dressage Performance

  • Impact-Reducing Core – Absorbs shock and minimizes pressure along the back to support topline development and post-ride recovery. 
  • No Straps, No Shifting – Streamlined fit that eliminates bulk and stays centered through lateral work, extended trot, and collected movements. 
  • Quick-Dry, Lightweight Design – Perfect for multi-horse programs, humid climates, and back-to-back training sessions. 
  • Machine Washable – Easy to care for, built for regular barn use. 
  • Handcrafted in Italy – Precision construction and premium materials for riders who expect the best.

Sized and Shaped for  Dressage Saddles

Tailored for the short-coupled horse, this pad boasts a slight reduction in length (4cm) compared to the Classic Dressage, tapering elegantly at the rear. This thoughtful design prevents smaller, more compact horses from being overshadowed by the pad, allowing them to showcase their full potential. Elevate your daily training and competition experiences with our exquisite Spanish Dressage Saddle Pad.
