Description

ThinLine Full Sheepskin Trifecta Half Pad

What is Merino Woven Wool?

It has all the benefits of Merino sheepskin on the hide:
Soft
Cool in the summer, warm in the winter
Wicks moisture
Absorbs shock and pressure

With this added feature:

  • No natural hide!

How is it made and why?

  • Merino lambs are sheared, and then the wool is needled onto a fabric backing.
  • The wool quality, length, and density are more consistent than Merino wool on a natural hide.
  • The longevity of Woven Wool is superior to Merino Wool on a hide.
  • Sheep are not harmed in the making of this pad.
  • With Woven Wool, machine washing is simple.

Sheepskin Half Pad Construction

  • Raised wither profile to accommodate more top lines.
  • Heavy Duty Cotton base –   cotton with a dense weave and light wool fill.

Medical Grade Sheepskin Wash Instructions

Our products come with a full-year warranty provided they are cared for as directed.

Regular maintenance: Dry between rides. Place the pad sheepskin face up in a cool environment, in humid climates use a fan to blow over the pad. Once the pad is dry, lightly brush it with a pet brush to help to keep the wool fluffy and resilient for the next ride.

Washing and drying: Sheepskin saddle pads are best washed by hand in cold water. Use a soap designed for sheepskin to keep your pad under warranty. You may machine wash (although hand wash is preferred) in a front loader, no agitators against the ThinLine panels, gentle wash cycle, cold. Remove excess water in the pad by squeezing the water out or placing in your washing machine on the spin cycle.

Fill washing machine (or bathtub for really large items) with water, then add a sheepskin soap. Soak for 1 hour squeezing soap and water through item from time to time. If the item is really dirty you may need to repeat the process. Squeeze or use the spin cycle to remove excess water and lay over a rack or rail to dry with sheepskin facing up. Keep out of the sun, and away from direct heat and dryers. Please do not brush or pull sheepskin fibers when wet. To prevent shrinkage, gently stretch the hide while drying.

Full Sheepskin Pads may take 2-3 days to dry. Sheepskin trimmed items should be good to go in a day. The ThinLine shim may slow drying time, we recommend placing absorbent products such as paper towels or chamois cloths inside the pocket.

On white pads you may use Scotch Guard to the rolls to keep them clean and extend washing cycles.

When the care instructions are followed properly, our sheepskin pads are proving to have an expected 4-5 years of use.

How do I know ThinLine is delivering the comfort and protection my horse needs?

Once you receive your ThinLine pad, ride in it for at least a week.  At first, you may simply notice things like; “my horse was great today, my seat and aids were soft and effective”, great job! you are on your way.  You will see daily improvement. But, this can be a bit subtle in the beginning. 

How to check out your pad’s effectiveness.  After at least a week of riding daily, begin your warm-up with the ThinLine.  Once you are warmed up, remove the ThinLine and ride.  This is when you will see just how much your horse is loving their saddle pad.

  5. Q Is the pad meant to be used directly on the horses back, or on another saddle pad? answer now
    A Thank you for your question! It's really a personal preference. Most riders prefer to use the Full Sheepskin Trifecta Half pad over another pad to keep it clean and extend the time between washings. It can also be used directly against your horse. If you're using it on its own, be sure to allow it to dry fully between rides and lightly brush the wool once dry to keep it fluffy and resilient.
