Why You Can't Live Without a Skito Saddle Pad

Fitting our horses with the right bridle, saddle, and saddle pad can be maddening. You purchase things for your horse only to find out that they rub, create sore spots, cause problems with your other gear. To top it off once you've tried a piece of equipment on your horse, the equipment is no longer returnable because it is used. The horse will sweat or shed, and the item becomes soiled. My tack room is overflowing with purchases that have proved useless for my horse for one reason or the other. The one item that I would not be without and that I guard like a precious commodity is my Skito pad. The average price range for these pads is $100-200 depending on the materials, size, and shape of your pad. Though this is a high end pad price-wise, you are actually getting what you pay for, quality.

The Skito Equalizer pads are the very best saddle pads to ever come to market. The Skito will fit both treed and treeless saddles. They consist of a fleece underside, and a tapestry, twill fabric, or cordura top, with a Velcro pocket that holds an insert made of open cell urethane foam in ½ inch, ¾ inch, or a full 1 inch thickness. This open cell foam creates a channel down the spine that virtually eliminates any pressure points directly over the horse's spine. The various thicknesses of the foam inserts allows you to custom fit your pad to your horse, as well as use the pad, with various thickness inserts on different horses or with different saddles. The materials of the Skito pad allow the heat buildup under your saddle to flow through the pad. The pad is absorbent and versatile. Those riding horses over long distance highly recommend this saddle pad. It can be custom cut to your saddle, or purchased in various English and Western styles.
