  Why Choose ThinLine? and What is it?

  Most equine products work on a compression basis, meaning they compress then spring back or, like gel, move away from pressure. What makes ThinLine unique is its technology. ThinLine is an open-cell foam which moves shock, weight, and heat laterally.

  How it works - when warmed to body temperature by work and exercise, ThinLine's texture and suppleness will allow the products to mold to the horse's back for a custom fit. ThinLine returns to its original shape at room temperature and will mold every day for every horse.

  How it should fit:Your saddle panels should not exactly measure or be larger than the dimensions of this pad. Typically fits smaller built Hunter and Dressage Saddles up to 17". Pads are available in black or white, untrimmed or trimmed with a matching colored cotton binding on the edging. The trim is for looks only.

  Sizing:

• Standard: Fits most 16-17.5" saddles. 20.5" Spine, 12.5" Front drop. 

• Large: Fits most 18" + saddles. 22" Spine, 13.5" Front drop, 7.7" Rear drop, 7.25" Rear drop.

   If you would like a saddle pad with more wither profile or spine clearance, take a look at the ThinLine Trifecta Cotton Half Pad or the Trifecta with Sheepskin Rolls.

  Care Instructions : Can be wiped clean (ThinLine cleaning wipes), hosed off, soaked, or even machine washed (some machines may catch them, so a front loader is best) in cold water. Mild soaps and detergents can be used BUT PLEASE DO NOT PUT THEM IN THE DRYER! Hang to dry if needed.

  Keep your ThinLine AWAY from chemicals such as SHOW SHEEN.
