For those seeking versatile Dressage Half Pads, the ideal choice lies in the exceptional craftsmanship of Mattes dressage half pads. Crafted on demand using top-tier materials known for their technical prowess, these half pads come in a diverse range of colors, offering a high degree of customization, from ropes and trims to the shape and hue of the sheepskin.
Tailored Customization:
Tailor your Mattes dressage half pad to match your preferences with a spectrum of base colors, fabric materials like cotton, cotton sheen, or velvet, and an array of choices for ropes, trims, sheepskin, and embroidery. This ensures a personalized and stylish appearance that reflects your unique taste.
Technical Excellence:
In addition to its aesthetic appeal, Mattes half pads are engineered to maximize comfort for both rider and horse, incorporating innovative design elements.
Innovative Core Design:
The two-layer core design employs POLY-FLEX®, a needle-punched needled felt that ensures shape retention and pressure equalization. The use of polyester wadding for padding promotes breathability without relying on foam, neoprene, or gel.
The SPINEFREE® design prevents pressure on the withers and spine, prioritizing comfort and performance during every ride.
The SADDLE-FIX® system secures the center strip of the saddle pad in the saddle compartment. This reliable and user-friendly system enhances stability during rides.
The CORRECTION® SYSTEM offers flexible adjustments to saddle position, allowing for variations of up to 30 mm. This feature is particularly beneficial for accommodating changes in young horses’ physical development, supporting horses after extended service, or adapting to fluctuations during tournament seasons. Easily reinforce or reduce the shims for quick adjustments based on changing horse requirements. Importantly, the CORRECTION® SYSTEM effectively compensates for permanent irregularities in the horse’s physique without altering the saddle itself. This adaptability ensures a comfortable fit and optimal performance under various circumstances.
