We love this Trifecta Cotton Half Pad for the cotton-based, breathable design and motion absorption which encourages horses to lift their backs. Did we mention these pads are machine washable? That's right, wash on cold and lay to dry out of the sun and away from heat sources. Show up to the competition ready to show out, & out-shine. You're prepared for anything when you ride with ThinLine!
