Saddle Cover

No matter what discipline, quality tack will last longer and stay show-ring-beautiful when protected from the dust, dirt, and scratches that go along with barns and traveling with horses.

"I absolutely adore my smartpak saddle covers- they are super easy to use and fit the dressage saddles perfectly. I have ordered two more since the first one I bought and I am planning on giving one as a gift to a student soon!"

"I had been eyeing this saddle cover for a while and thanks to some store credit I finally bought one and I absolutly LOVE it! I got the custome colors and they all look great, no suprises. Shipping didn't take as long as expected which was a deffinate plus. The only thing I would change is maybe adding velco to the staps, they're a little hard to get on and off. I've recommended this cover to everyone and they all love it too!"

"I have been dreaming of this saddle cover for over a year and thanks to some store credit I finally made the purchase! This saddle cover is wonderful all around! I wanted a saddle cover that didnt have the elastice on it but would still cover my saddle and stay on, this met all the requirements! I did the custom colors which I was a little worried about but it turned out beautifully and I got my name across the back and its just to die for! All my friends now want one and rave about how great it looks. The only thing I woud change is maybe having the nylon straps be velroable so its easier to get on and off. However Im so in love with it I dont care or mind :) If your are contemplating getting this dont even hesitate just buy! Plus Smartpak is so wonderful to work with you have nothing to worry about if you do have issues with it. Thanks SmartPak!!!"

"This saddle cover is just what I was looking for. The outer material is durable, while the inside is very soft. The cover easily slips over my saddle, and I can choose to use the straps or not depending on the situation. The cover has worked very well for me both in the tack room and in the trailer.
I ordered the custom colors to match my other gear, and the colors turned out wonderfully. The personalization is large and beautiful. Well worth the wait, great product at a super price. Friends have already gotten their own!"

"This saddle cover looks great. It keeps my saddle dry. Best part it has a fuzzy underside, which protects It. There are straps that secure the cover. Highly recommend it."

"Very gorgeous and fits perfectly with my close contact Collegiate Diploma saddle. It is kind of annoying to get on at first, because it is basically just two straps that go around your saddle, but you get used to it. It is made of waterproof nylon to protect your saddle and is fleece lined on the inside. A nice buy, much nicer than my old cotton cover, and matches the rest of my SmartPak bags!"

"I bought this saddle cover in my barn colors and it is soooooooo beautiful! The red and yellow is so vivid and it really makes it stand out. The lining is nice and soft and picks up/wipes away and excess hair from riding. One thing I must say is the sizes run large. I have and 18" saddle and ordered a 17 1/2" because my friends cover fit. Well this one is a little to big, but still a fantastic buy."

"My customized saddle cover came out with all the beautiful details I asked for. The fleece lining is very nice and a high quality. It covers my close contact saddle generously. Takes about four weeks to make and deliver but it was worth the wait."

"I just received this saddle cover and I'm in love with it. I ordered custom colors and had it monogramed and I couldn't be happier with the way it turned out. In addition the size (I ordered the dressage saddle cover) is very generous so it should fit just about any dressage saddle."

"I was really looking forward to this saddle cover. I bought it for an 18" Grand Gilbert. It is plenty big in the seat, but the flaps are too far forwards. It works well enough for this saddle and the construction/materials are superb. Once my mare is done growing, I will be buying a Trilogy and it seemed to fit my other Trilogy better than the Grand Gilbert."

"I was very disappointed in this cover. doesn;t fit my dressage saddle at all way too large in the seat and the flaps are set way to far forward like it was just extended from the closecontact/ap version. I do have to say i also have the close contact cover and that one fits great--colors great--material is good--but the quality of the dressage cover is very upsetting--smartpak has been helpful with trying to fix this issue hopefully they will get a better dressage cover out!"

"I had bought a saddle cover from Smartpak a couple years ago, and it was the same kind as pictured in the catalog and I finally ordered another one. First of all I had to call the company to find out where my saddle cover was because it took over 2 months for them to realize it hadn't been sent to me. Once received it didn't even cover the dressage saddle the right way. The inside fleece was not as nice as the previous one I had ordered and this one had a smartpak label on it, which the previous one I had ordered didn't. Overall very disappointing because you got it right the first time, the quality was great, I got so many compliments on my saddle cover. But this one has become a dust collector off of the saddle instead of a dust protector on the saddle."

Great Price, Excellent Product!!

"This saddle cover is gorgeous, affordable, and high quality! With a fleece interior and a heavy duty nylon exterior nothing will harm your tack when it is in a Tally-Ho bag! I have had other, pricier saddle bags and covers and this one is by far the best! Thanks SmartPak for providing such a great product!"

Perfectly designed!

ByIvyL

"Looking for a solution to those elasticized saddle covers that are such a pain to put on? Enter the Tally-Ho saddle cover! It fits perfectly over my saddle and the shape of the cantle really holds the cover in place. No elastic means no curled flaps and no trouble putting the cover on. The fleece lining protects your saddle, and there is even room for a monogram! If you've never tried Tally-Ho products, give them a try with this cover...you'll soon own the whole set!"
