Felt Saddle Pad PICA in detail

• Anatomical shape: Our Felt Saddle Pads have an anatomical back line and fit a variety of horses with different withers shapes. We recommend that the Felt Saddle Pad should only be slightly indented at the front when saddling. At the rear of the saddle, the Felt Saddle Pad should lie flat.
• Material thickness: We have opted for a thickness of 5 mm so that the Felt Saddle Pad can also be used in combination with classic cotton saddle pads without having to readjust your saddle.
• Girth loops: Our Felt Saddle Pads are equipped with continuous leather loops for your saddle girth. We have deliberately dispensed with additional straps to avoid seams in the upper back area. The Felt Saddle Pad still retains its fit when riding - provided that the saddle fits perfectly.
• Designed in Germany, manufactured in the EU: Like all our Picadera products, the baroque Felt Saddle Pad has undergone a careful development process and has been tested on our horses. It is manufactured for you in Spain.

Why Felt Saddle Pad?

Wool felt has been used for thousands of years and is a truly miraculous material with many wonderful properties. In the form of Felt Saddle Pad it is also an enrichment for every horse's back:

• Dimensionally stable & elastic: Wool felt retains its shape thanks to the density of the fibers and is still elastic under pressure. The Felt Saddle Pad can therefore adapt perfectly to the shape of your horse's back.
• Breathable & temperature-regulating: Wool felt absorbs up to a third of its own weight in moisture without feeling wet. Water droplets roll off, while water vapor can escape through the material. In this way, wool felt also manages to cool in summer and warm in winter - just like the sheep from which the natural material originates.
• Self-cleaning & dirt-repellent: The lanolin (wool grease) contained in wool felt and the felt structure not only allow water to roll off, but also make it harder for dirt to penetrate. Wool felt is also antistatic, i.e. dry dirt is less attracted than with other textiles.
• Skin-friendly: Natural wool felt does not cause skin irritation and can prevent hair breakage in horses with sensitive skin during coat changes.
• Tear-resistant & durable: The dense fibers make the wool felt extremely tear-resistant and dimensionally stable - ideal for regular use in or under the saddle.
