The Italian HAF endurance Saddle Pad for treeless saddles

AVAILABLE NOW in several colors

Click image to enlarge

The Italian HAF pads are now available in black, brown, red, aqua, olive and royal blue.

This is a very well made and cleverly designed treeless saddle pad and it perfectly fits under many styles of saddles. The Haf pad has an especially flat seam down the centerline and gives ample room to the withers. It ads stability to the saddle and is widely used for many treeless models and riding modalities. The company HAF has been refining their saddle pads in particular for the endurance sport for the last 10 years. The HAF pad has a soft Sympanova lining which does not absorb the horse's sweat and is very skinfriendly. You can just wipe down the pad after the ride but it is of course also mashine washable. The nodules of the Sympanova material gently massage the horse and create some airflow and cooling. People love this saddle pad for it's practicality. The way we set it up, it has excellent shockabsorbtion and you can individualise the padding for hard to fit horses.

The HAF pad comes standard with one layer of soft open cell foam. Superior natural rubber inserts are available for heavyweight and/or endurance riders or riders with high withered horses for $30.00, the additional inserts are a 'must have' for use with all Barefoot saddles.

HAF pad with one thick layer of open cell inserts: $230.00 inc GST
