Saddle Pads & Blankets

Saddle Up has a tremendous selection of new pads! The right pad is very important for the comfort of your horse. Diamond Wool pads are our most popular pad and are quite excellent! Colors and patterns range and so do styles. We have regular pads, contoured pads, wither relief pads, wool pads and tacky pads - whatever you need to make sure your horse is as comfortable as can be!

Designed to Perform

A quality saddle pad helps reduce friction, absorb shock, and protect your horse’s back during long rides or tough workouts. We carry pads and blankets made with dependable materials like wool, fleece, and high-density foams that hold up over time and keep your tack in place.

Built for Every Discipline

From everyday Western riding to dressage and showing, we offer options for nearly every discipline. You’ll find classic wool felt pads, show-ready saddle blankets, half pads with added lift, and fleece-lined pads for sensitive horses.

Comfort They’ll Feel

A good pad can help minimize pressure points, wick moisture, and improve saddle fit. Our options include breathable liners, contour shapes, and merino fleece or sheepskin options for horses that need extra softness under the saddle.

Trusted by Riders Like You

We ride in the same conditions you do, and we stock what works. Every pad we carry has been chosen for its fit, durability, and real-world comfort—so you can ride with confidence knowing your horse is comfortable underneath you.

Frequently Asked Questions

What kind of pad is best for my horse?

That depends on your horse’s back shape, your saddle fit, and how you ride. Wool pads offer natural shock absorption, fleece adds softness, and felt pads provide structure. Reach out if you need help narrowing it down.

How do I know what size pad to get?

Most pads are sized by saddle length and bar coverage. A good rule of thumb is 1–2 inches of pad showing beyond your saddle on all sides. We’re happy to help double-check sizing if needed.

What’s the difference between a saddle pad and a saddle blanket?

A saddle pad typically has built-in structure and padding for support, while a saddle blanket is often a thinner layer used for show or layering. Both can help with fit and appearance, depending on your setup.

How do I clean my pad or blanket?

Most pads can be brushed and wiped with a damp sponge after rides. For deeper cleans, follow the manufacturer’s instructions—especially for wool fleece, merino wool, or sheepskin pads.

Do you carry pads for dressage saddles or English disciplines?

We currently focus on Western pads, but we do stock some versatile options that work with other saddles. Contact us for specific needs or upcoming stock.
