"I LOVE this pad!!! I got the all purpose in Smartblue, and it fits my 16 1/2 saddle PERFECT! I feel like it definitely could fit larger saddles with ease too. All throughout my ride, whether it's jumping or flat, it doesn't slip or slide at all! My horse LOVES this pad, it gives lots of comfort and padding! I got this pad during the summer, and it "sucked" up most of the sweat on my horse when we rode! He stayed dryer under his saddle! It can also be used in any weather or season though. I LOVE THIS PAD SO MUCH!!!!! A VERY GOOD BUY!"

"I bought this as a gift for a girl that I ride with and she loves it. It is made out of a very weird material on the top. Almost Fly Masky. It looks great on though and seems to do the job. A little pricier than I was originally going to spend but I guess you get what you pay for. Cant say too much on how it will last but it seems like it will wear like iron."

"Great design for me and my horse, durability, looks great. My jumping saddle has big ol' knee rolls, and this pad and one made by Equine Couture are the only two pads in the world with velcro billets that are long enough and placed such that I can actually use them. The pad has an extra long velcro billet on the side and a nice wide, velcro billet on the bottom, a fantastic feature the description doesn't mention. I've used this pad for four years and it still looks brand-new! Tons of wither clearance, horse likes it. And the blue plaid is beautiful. I love Smartpak!"

"I have been wanting this pad for some time. I finaly ordered it and am so happy I did. Looks so nice on my mare. Fits my 17 A/P wintec great. Was nervous about that with some people saying it was short. I would recommend this to friends and when I purchase my dressage saddle will be ordering one for that saddle as well."

"Despite the fact that it is this plasticy material on the outside and is very slippery, I love this pad. I get lots of complements on how nice it looks on my dark bay TB too. It does seem to wick moisture and the top stays super clean due to the plastic type weave. this pad is sturdy and pretty thick, like about 1/2 inch I would guess. The only thing that might be an issue for some is it tends to run just a tad short vertically. I have the blue and wish it came in some other plaids as well."

"I bought the blue plaid & it looks so good on my black horse. Only had it a few weeks so I can't honestly attest yet to durability - although the outer layer seems strong. I bought the dressage & the fit is a little smaller than I would like but it does fit - a little longer and wider would be a plus. Lots of compliments already & fresh styling for Spring!!"

Alot of people said it was a short spine so I was nervous but it fits my Wintec 17" A/P just fine. Love the color, and the material seems like it is going to last for a long time."

"I love this saddle pad! It's the perfect size for my dressage saddle! There isn't too much pad under or behind my saddle, and my saddle doesn't stick out over any part of the pad. It has the velcro billet straps in front of the saddle and underneath for the girth so it's highly adjustable. And, I love the color! The fabric is not only incredibly durable, but attractive and easy to clean too! I'll probably get on in every color!"

"Nice quality, better than I anticipated. The underside is very breatheable and soft. It is relatively thick and cushioned but doesn't bunch. Both billit and girth straps are velcro to keep it secured easier. I love this pad...especially because it looks so sharp."

"I really love this saddle pad. I actually was wanting to buy it for quite some time, so I ordered it for my horse & I for Christmas. I've been using it almost daily on my not-so-clean half Arab, in the cold Wisconsin winter and it looks brand new! I have a 15 1/2 '' hunt seat saddle and it fits great. It could have a bit longer width along the back, though. It does fit, but if you have a larger seat saddle, it may be too short. Other than that, I love it! It has awesome ventilation, it's very soft and squishy, and the outside stays SO clean! The velcro billet straps are fantastic! It looks very flashy on my bay gelding. I'm very happy with it and I recommend it to anyone!"

"I bought this pad because I thought the pattern was fun for a dressage pad- however I was pleasantly surprised at how nice the pad is. I can tell it will be very easy to wash. Superior ventilation and a nice amount of extra padding at the withers. Also, an added bonus-the girth straps are also velcro."

"These pads are beautiful! I love the Kensington plaid, and the textilene material. I thought it would be too large for my small horse, but the drop is listed wrong in the description...the drop is 21 inches, not 23 inches, so no interference with the girth. It is a little thicker than some pads, but does not seem to affect the fit of my saddle. Love the SmartPink and the SmartBlue, now I want to get other items in those patterns !!!"
