Key Features & Benefits Of Impact gel saddle pad

• Proprietary Gel Polymer
  The 1″ layer of non‑toxic, open‑cell gel molds to your horse’s contours, cushioning every step and jump. Unlike bulky foam, it retains shape ride after ride.

• Exceptional Wither Relief
  A sculpted cut‑out relieves pressure at the withers and spine, promoting freedom of movement through every stride.

• Machine‑Washable & Odor‑Resistant
  Simply unzip the gel insert and toss the cover in your washer. Advanced fibers wick moisture and prevent bacterial growth.

• Lightweight & Low‑Profile
  At under 2 pounds, it stays slim under your saddle while delivering unmatched impact absorption.
