Description
The EDIX GP Velvet 8-Pocket Pad is an anatomically shaped pad featuring the versatile 8-pocket system. The combination of soft, foam-padded velvet fabric and interchangeable inlays supports a stable saddle position and helps distribute pressure evenly across the horse’s back.
Anatomical Shape and Adjustable Pressure Distribution
The anatomically shaped foam base provides support and contributes to the pad’s shock-absorbing properties. The shape of the pad provides sufficient clearance around the withers and helps keep it securely positioned beneath the saddle.
The eight individual inlay pockets are positioned along the top and on both sides of the pad. These pockets come with felt inlays as standard and can be adjusted individually to improve the position of the saddle or provide additional pressure distribution.
Depending on the horse’s conformation and muscling, the saddle being used and the desired effect, the felt inlays can be replaced or combined with other types of inlays. Various types of inlays are available separately in our webshop.
A strong nylon reinforcement is positioned where the rider’s leg moves against the pad while riding. This helps reduce friction and premature wear.
Specially Designed for Comfort
The EDIX® GP Velvet 8-Pocket Pad combines support, pressure distribution and adjustability. The soft materials provide comfortable contact with the horse’s back, while the foam base helps absorb shocks during riding.
Thanks to its adjustable 8-pocket system, the EDIX® GP Velvet Pad can be used beneath various brands of treeless saddles as well as traditional treed GP and jumping saddles. The correct combination and thickness of the inlays depends on the horse and the saddle being used. If in doubt, have the fit assessed by a qualified saddle fitter.
