      Size Guide

      Mattes Half Pads

      • Measurement A-B (Back Length) - Measure along the spine of the pad, from front to back.
      • Measurement A-X (Depth) - Measure from the top to the bottom of the pad.
      • Measurement E-F (Sheepskin Area) - This measurement will show you where the sheepskin underside will come to, if you choose any option with sheepskin that sits underneath the pad.
      • If you require sheepskin on the top, please allow 3cm overlap for each section when measuring for the correct length A-B (e.g. if you want front and back top sheepskin and your pad is 58cm long, deduct 6cm so 52cm is the space you can fit your saddle into.)

        mattes half pad

        I absolutely love my Mattes half pad- it’s customized exactly how I wanted, and it actually ended up being less expensive than a plain white one would have been if I had bought it at one of the US tack stores. I had a little trouble with the website letting me complete payment for my order and was about to give up, but Jonathon reached out to me and helped me finalize my order. It arrived very quickly, with no additional surprise charges or tariffs. I would definitely order again! I have another Mattes half pad that I ordered years ago from a different company and it took a very long time to arrive, so this experience was much faster and very easy. Thanks so much!

        Thank you for your kind feedback it was a pleasure helping you and am glad you are happy with the half pad” Pink Equine Team

        Hope you had a lovely Christmas. The pad arrived on Christmas Eve and Figaro and I had a lovely albeit chilly hack today.

        Everyone at the barn is in love with your product as am I!

        As requested, here are pics of my very dirty Figaro!

        Wishing you and yours a wonderful new year all the way from Glenelg, Maryland!
