Mattes Custom Square Saddle Pad – All Purpose

The highest levels of quality, function and appearance

Traditional, square design and optimised for general purpose. You will love Mattes saddle pads, not only for their super premium quality sheepskin, the soft sheepskin trim and the optional MER exercise sheet system, but also for their hard-wearing quilted fabric or velvet and the clever SADDLE-FIX^®, CORRECTION^® and SPINEFREE^® systems.

Made in Europe from premium quality materials, selected for the highest demands of equestrian sport.

Quilted fabric

Mattes design the core of their quilted fabrics in two layers: POLYFLEX® (a deep-needled needle felt) is used for shape retention and pressure equalisation, polyester wadding for padding. They do not use foam, neoprene or gel at all. That is why the entire construction is fully air-permeable.

Choose from normal quilt fabric, quilt sheen or velvet quilting fabric.

Premium sheepskin

Mattes sheepskin in best premium quality provides good pressure distribution, balances temperature and reduces friction. Sheepskin is also perfect for summer.

Sheepskin options include front only, front and back, or rear only for the topside, and semi lined or sickle shape for the underside of the saddle pad, or without sheepskin is also possible if you prefer.

Correction System®

The Correction System® developed by Mattes allows corrections of the saddle position flexibly and quickly up to 30mm. Options include a single or a double pocket that can hold up to three, Poly-Flex® inserts which have pressure properties that correspond to those of a good saddle padded with wool and horse hair. This is particularly important, for example, for the rapid physical development of young horses in training and for horses that have been standing for a long time.

Saddle-Fix®

With the secure Saddle-Fix® fastening system, the centre strip of the Mattes saddle panels can be conveniently fixed in the saddle chamber. This means that the saddle cloth remains enclosed and centred under the saddle. Perfect in combination with the Correction System®.
