ThinLine is sewn on top of the high-quality cotton with medical grade sheepskin under the panels and at the front roll. Underneath the ThinLine layer is a pocket to insert shims to help with minor saddle fit adjustments.

What is Merino Woven Wool?

It has all the benefits of Merino sheepskin on the hide:
Soft
Cool in the summer, warm in the winter
Wicks moisture
Absorbs shock and pressure

With this added feature:

• No natural hide!

How is it made and why?

• Merino lambs are sheared, and then the wool is needled onto a fabric backing.
• The wool quality, length, and density are more consistent than Merino wool on a natural hide.
• The longevity of Woven Wool is superior to Merino Wool on a hide.
• Sheep are not harmed in the making of this pad.
• With Woven Wool, machine washing is simple.
