Description
The LeMieux Shaped Gel Pad is a therapeutic, dual-purpose saddle pad designed to prevent saddle movement and absorb shock. Available in Full and Pony sizes, it is made thicker than a lightweight pad to provide both anti-slip and shock-absorbing performance in one.
- Made thicker than the light weight pad - giving it a dual purpose: anti-slip and shock absorbing
- Can be used directly onto the skin or between a numnah and the saddle
- Special gel is non-toxic, hypoallergenic and will not react adversely to the skin
- Stops unwanted movement of the saddle both back & forth and side to side
- Particularly useful if saddles rotate on rounder horses and ponies
- Shaped and moulded to the saddle with a slightly thinner depth of gel running down the centre, allowing the gel to sit up in the gullet rather than pushing down on the wither and spine
- Can be cut to the size of the saddle if needed - show riders often cut it to half an inch inside the profile of the saddle for a discreet finish
Colour: Black, Brown, Clear
Sizes available: Full, Pony

Frequently Asked Questions
What sizes does the LeMieux Shaped Gel Pad come in?
The LeMieux Shaped Gel Pad is available in two sizes: Full and Pony.
Can the LeMieux Shaped Gel Pad be cut to fit a specific saddle?
Yes - the gel can be cut to the size of your saddle. Show riders often cut it to half an inch inside the profile of the saddle so it is not visible, while still providing a shock-absorbing, non-slip layer.
How does the shaped centre of the pad protect the horse's wither and spine?
The pad is shaped and moulded with a slightly thinner depth of gel running down the centre. This allows the gel to sit up in the gullet rather than pressing down on the wither and spine.
Is the gel in the LeMieux Shaped Gel Pad safe for use directly on a horse's skin?
Yes. The gel is non-toxic and hypoallergenic, and will not react adversely to the skin. It can be used directly onto the horse or between a numnah and the saddle.
Is the LeMieux Shaped Gel Pad suitable for rounder horses and ponies where saddles tend to rotate?
Yes - the pad is specifically noted as a real asset for horses and ponies with a rounder build where saddles are prone to rotating, as it stops unwanted movement both back and forth and side to side.
