Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between a saddle pad and a numnah?
A numnah is cut to follow the shape of your saddle, while a saddle pad or saddle cloth is a square shape that shows more material at the edges. Both saddle pads and numnahs perform the same job, protecting your horse's back and keeping your saddle clean, so the choice often comes down to your discipline and personal preference.
What size saddle pad do I need for my saddle?
You need a saddle pad or numnah sized to match your saddle, typically Pony or Cob for saddles up to 16.5 inches and Full or Extra Full for 17 inches and above. Leave 2 to 3 inches of pad showing behind the saddle and 1 to 2 inches at the pommel to avoid rubbing.
Which saddle pad is best for dressage?
A dedicated dressage saddle pad is best, as it has a straighter cut to suit the shape of a dressage saddle and straps that attach to the girth straps rather than billets. Our LeMieux and Weatherbeeta dressage saddle pads are popular choices, offering a close, competition-ready fit in classic colours.
Can I use a half pad with my normal saddle pad?
Yes, a half pad can be layered over your usual saddle pad or numnah to add extra cushioning where it's needed most. Half pads such as our LeMieux ProSorb and Weatherbeeta memory foam options are especially useful for horses that are sensitive or lacking muscle across the back, though your saddle fit should always be checked afterwards.
How do I clean and care for a sheepskin saddle pad?
Sheepskin saddle pads should be brushed after every ride to remove sweat and dirt, then washed by hand or on a wool-safe cycle with a specialist sheepskin wash. Always air dry away from direct heat, as radiators and tumble dryers can damage the wool and shorten the life of your saddle pad or numnah.
