Care Instructions
Soft gel pads can be handwashed in a bucket with mild detergent, or machine washed in a wash bag at 30°C. Do not use harsh detergents, tumble dry, or expose to direct heat.
- ✓ Memory foam core moulds to your horse's back and distributes pressure evenly
- ✓ 3D spacer mesh fabric creates an air channel between pad and horse for constant ventilation
- ✓ Fits all standard English saddles — use alone or layer over a traditional saddle pad
The memory foam jumping pad with shaped withers and 3D spacer spine in honeycomb is designed to offer maximum comfort to both horse and rider.
Its ergonomic fit gives greater freedom to the horse, helping to prevent problems in the sensitive spinal area and distributing the weight evenly.
Honeycomb is a high-tech material with a particular structure that guarantees a breathable, elastic and pressure-absorbing environment with excellent tactile features.
The central 3D spacer insert adapts perfectly to the horse's silhouette, eliminating spinal pressure and improving adherence to the saddle.
The peculiar structure of the 3D spacer insert makes this pad more elastic and torsion-free and further improves its heat dissipation and ventilation properties.
The memory foam strengthens shock absorption as well as balanced weight distribution and eliminates rubbing and friction, by fitting perfectly to the horse's body.
- Machine washable at low temperature (max 30°C)
- Do not use aggressive detergents
- Do not tumble dry
- Do not expose to direct heat or strong sunlight
- Let it dry naturally, flat
Memory Foam Technology
High-density memory foam that moulds to the shape of your horse's back and the underside of your saddle. The foam becomes more compliant as it warms with body heat, creating a custom-moulded fit. Many models feature Acavallo's 3D Spacer insert — a central spine channel that adapts to the horse's back and improves ventilation and torsion flexibility.
What It Solves
Uneven pressure distribution, back soreness, and saddle-fit issues. The foam distributes the rider's weight evenly across the back, reducing pressure points. The 3D Spacer insert eliminates spinal pressure entirely. Available with multiple grip surfaces — honeycomb, louvre, silicone, double-sided, and gel grip.
Best For
Horses with back sensitivity or soreness. Saddles that don't fit perfectly. Riders who want the most versatile half pad technology. The largest range in the Acavallo collection with options for every discipline.
