English Saddle Pad

To determine the right size English saddle pad, start by measuring your saddle seat. Measure from just under the swells (front) to just under the cantle (back) at the longest point—this gives you the seat length. Next, add 4 inches to that measurement to find the correct back length of the pad. For example, if your saddle measures 17½ inches, round up to 18 and add 4 inches, resulting in a 22-inch back length.

Standard pad sizes work well for riders up to 190 lbs. If you weigh between 191–300 lbs, we recommend upgrading our Glove Leather pad which has an upgrade option of adding an additional ½ inch of core material for added support and performance.

Our SaddleRight English pads are uniquely shaped pads that don’t fall strictly into the "half pad" or "full pad" category. They are designed to provide the targeted support of a half pad, while offering more surface area and customized coverage than traditional half pads. Each pad is tailored to your seat size for a precise fit and close contact feel, which helps eliminate unnecessary bulk under the saddle. These shaped saddle pads are ideal for riders who want orthopedic protection and enhanced performance without the extra bulk of a full-size pad. Fits Hunter, Jumper, or Dressage saddles.

Yes, we do. Our glove leather English saddle pads can be personalized with embroidery on both sides. You can add initials, logos, brand marks, or other designs for an additional fee. To get the best results, we require a digitized file or a high-quality PDF of your artwork. Hand-drawn designs are not accepted. If your artwork is not digitized, there may be an extra charge to convert it. Custom embroidery adds a unique and professional touch while maintaining the performance and quality you expect from SaddleRight.

Proper care keeps your SaddleRight English saddle pad performing at its best.

For suede pads, we recommend storing them inside-out in a well-ventilated area and brushing the top side monthly with a soft brush. Use a rubber curry or stiff brush (not metal) to remove hair from the underside. For deep cleaning, you can sponge with diluted Dawn dish soap or saddle soap, rinse thoroughly, and let the pad dry inside-out in a hanging position. If the pad becomes stiff from heavy sweat or dirt, lay it flat, gently pound hard areas with a hammer, and rinse using a hose or power washer at a distance. (DO NOT POWER WASH AT CLOSE RANGE)

Glove leather pads should be cleaned with a leather cleaner or saddle soap, followed by a quality leather conditioner - avoid wax-based products. The underside can be cleaned using the same method as suede pads. Always allow the pad to dry fully before storing or reusing.
