LeMieux Merino+ Loire Classic Close Contact Square Saddle Pad
Combining style and function, this close-contact saddle pad offers the luxury expected from the Loire collection with the comfort and pressure relief of a technical Merino+ blend, designed to fit forward-cut jumping saddles. Our iconic close contact design features a high wither cut, elasticated D-ring tabs and a swept-back profile for secure, performance-focused fit.
Delivering the look and security of a half pad without added bulk, Merino+ rolls stabilise the saddle while reducing pressure. The Merino+ blend pairs natural Merino wool with engineered fibres for both style and performance. Beautiful woven Loire satin fabric is matched with a signature soft, breathable and friction-free bamboo lining that controls heat and efficiently wicks sweat to keep your horse cool. An extensively researched suede-effect binding smoothly contours the edges to retain pad shape, while a durable textured PU leather girth protection area withstands rider contact. Precision fit is ensured by inner girth strap channels, and a stylish embossed metal logo badge on a leather mount finishes the design.
