If you have a taste for the finer things in life, we recommend a lambskin half-pad with lambskin trim front and back on the top and lambskin lining beneath the saddle area – you can choose the colors yourself. The half-pad is stylishly finished with a top band, binding and our popular quilted pattern in fabric or velvet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eShims included (6 front and 6 back)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe MATTES half-pad is available in general purpose, dressage and show jumping styles in sizes S, M, L and XL.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOur SPINEFREE® design reliably prevents any pressure around the withers and spine.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe secure SADDLE-FIX® system allows the top seam of the half-pad to be attached comfortably in the gullet of the saddle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe core of the half-pad is made of two layers: POLY-FLEX® (a deep-needled polyester felt) is used to maintain the shape and spread the pressure, while polyester wadding provides padding.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe completely avoid foam, neoprene or gel, making the whole pad breathable.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe supply three 5 mm-thick felt shims (POLY-FLEX®) for each pocket, offering the same pressure relief as a good quality new saddle, padded with wool and horsehair. MATTES developed the CORRECTION® System to allow flexible and easy changes to saddle fit by up to 30 mm: to easily compensate for the rapid physical development of young horses in training, for horses that have been out of work for some time, or for trained horses which change shape a lot during the competition season, whenever quick alterations are needed. Simply add extra shims, or just as importantly, remove them, to suit the horse’s changing shape. It is crucial to balance out long-term irregularities in conformation. These should never be corrected by adjusting the saddle itself!\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"World Equestrian Brands","offers":[{"title":"White \/ Small \/ Dressage","offer_id":47550026252437,"sku":"654576-WHWHS","price":440.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"White \/ Small \/ Jump","offer_id":47550026285205,"sku":"656576-WHWHS","price":440.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"White \/ Small \/ All Purpose","offer_id":47550026317973,"sku":"651576-WHWHS","price":440.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"White \/ Medium \/ Dressage","offer_id":47550026350741,"sku":"654576-WHWHM","price":440.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"White \/ Medium \/ Jump","offer_id":47550026383509,"sku":"656576-WHWHM","price":440.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"White \/ Medium \/ All Purpose","offer_id":47550026416277,"sku":"651576-WHWHM","price":440.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"White \/ Large \/ Dressage","offer_id":47550026449045,"sku":"654576-WHWHL","price":440.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"White \/ Large \/ Jump","offer_id":47550026481813,"sku":"656576-WHWHL","price":440.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"White \/ Large \/ All Purpose","offer_id":47550026514581,"sku":null,"price":440.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"White \/ Extra Large \/ Dressage","offer_id":47550026547349,"sku":"654576-WHWHXL","price":440.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"White \/ Extra Large \/ Jump","offer_id":47550026580117,"sku":"656576-WHWHXL","price":440.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"White \/ Extra Large \/ All Purpose","offer_id":47550026612885,"sku":"651576-WHWHXL","price":440.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Black \/ Small \/ Dressage","offer_id":47550026645653,"sku":"6545576-BKBKS","price":440.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Black \/ Small \/ Jump","offer_id":47550026678421,"sku":"656576-BKBKS","price":440.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Black \/ Small \/ All Purpose","offer_id":47550026711189,"sku":"651576-BKBKS","price":440.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Black \/ Medium \/ Dressage","offer_id":47550026743957,"sku":"654576-BKBKM","price":440.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Black \/ Medium \/ Jump","offer_id":47550026776725,"sku":"656576-BKBKM","price":440.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Black \/ Medium \/ All Purpose","offer_id":47550026809493,"sku":"651576-BKBKM","price":440.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Black \/ Large \/ Dressage","offer_id":47550026842261,"sku":"654576-BKBKL","price":440.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Black \/ Large \/ Jump","offer_id":47550026875029,"sku":"656576-BKBKL","price":440.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Black \/ Large \/ All Purpose","offer_id":47550026907797,"sku":"651576-BKBKL","price":440.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Black \/ Extra Large \/ Dressage","offer_id":47550026940565,"sku":"654576-BKBKXL","price":440.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Black \/ Extra Large \/ Jump","offer_id":47550026973333,"sku":"656576-BKBKXL","price":440.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Black \/ Extra Large \/ All Purpose","offer_id":47550027006101,"sku":"651576-BKBKXL","price":440.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0729\/6080\/2965\/files\/MattesPlatinumCorrectionhalfpad.webp?v=1783626518","url":"https:\/\/dutchessbridlesaddle.com\/products\/mattes-platinum-correction-half-pad-with-pockets-for-shims","provider":"Dutchess Bridle \u0026 Saddle","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
