High Wither Half Pad Black-Natural

The High Wither Half Pad Black-Natural is a premium Merino wool saddle pad designed to relieve pressure at the withers while promoting airflow and a secure, comfortable fit.

• Wither relief design: Clear, elevated spine swept up at the wither to minimise pressure points and improve overall saddle contact.
• Premium materials: Made from 100% Merino lambswool (tanalised with no harmful chemicals) paired with our signature 100% cotton quilted fabric for durability and softness.
• Breathable and moisture management: Fully breathable; Merino fibres wick moisture efficiently, holding up to 40 times their weight to keep the horse cool in summer and warm in winter.
• Comfort and circulation: Natural sheepskin contact supports muscle relaxation and promotes better blood flow for longer, more comfortable rides.
• Colour and finish: Classic Black with natural Merino wool, a versatile look that complements a wide range of saddlery.
• Sizes: Small (up to 16"), Medium (17"–17.5"), Large (up to 18").
• Care and maintenance: Remove hair, dirt and dried sweat with a stiff brush; lightly condition lambswool with a hair conditioner. Machine wash at 30°C on a cool/wool cycle or hand wash with non-bio detergent; reshape cotton fabric after washing and air dry away from heat. Do not tumble dry. Avoid strong fabric conditioners. Note: in rare cases dye from black wool may react with sweat and stain grey coats.

Designed for riders who value a thoughtful blend of comfort, function and care, this half pad supports the horse’s back while providing breathable, moisture-wicking performance across seasons. It’s ideal for riders seeking enhanced wither relief during schooling, long trots, or endurance training, and for horses that benefit from a soft, consistent contact that minimises weight transfer and heat build-up. Compared with standard pads, the High Wither Half Pad offers targeted support where it matters most, helping to reduce fatigue and promote a more relaxed, responsive ride.
