>>> Alright everyone! For a traditional treed english trail saddle which pad would you use- Skito (I have heard some bad things about this pad but like it) or the Saddleright pad (heard nothing bad about it, but I am still not sure.) Has anyone had trouble with the heat and the Skito?
I like my Skito pads a lot, and my husband uses a Saddleright, but I'm curious, why do you want or need to use a heavy-duty pad with a treed saddle? If the treed saddle fits, you should be ok with something like a cotton square pad, a Dixie Midnight, or maybe a thin wool felt pad. Will you be riding long distances in hot, humid weather? >>> Do you use a cotton pad under the Skito or Saddleright? Thank you! No, because a cotton pad is more slippery than either pad, and if layered, can bunch up and cause rubs. If you buy a Saddleright, they sell thin wool felt liners - I'd recommend one of those because the Saddlerights aren't made to wash easily. Karen Thomas [EMAIL PROTECTED]
