The Close Contact 30" x 30" or 30" X 28"

Description

The Close Contact 5 Star Saddle Pad is specifically designed to fit the "butterfly" shaped skirts of many of today's popular saddles. Physical touch can create a relationship with your horse not possible without it. The butterfly-cut close contact saddle pad is perfect to complement butterfly saddle skirts, and it enables you to maintain that "close contact" feel with your horse. The contoured shape of 5 Star Equine Products' pads fit your horse like a glove, and the 100% pure virgin wool felt wicks away moisture, cleans up easily and stabilizes your saddle with limited cinching. Wear leathers provide protection and durability. Hand-made in the USA!

Pad Specifications:

  • 30"Wide x 30"Long
  • Colors: Natural, Black, Dark Chocolate, Turquoise, Hot Pink, Purple & Red
  • Thickness: 1/2", 3/4", 7/8", 1"r

5 Star recommends 1" - 2" of pad showing around the perimeter of your saddle. Measure your saddle before ordering for proper fit.

5 Star uses high quality real leather for the basic, stamped, hair on and printed wear leathers. Due to the nature of leather, variances in color, pattern and style can occur with each hide. The swatches and photos of our wear leathers are only a close representation of the actual leather. We cannot guarantee the cut of our patterned leathers as no two will be the same. If you have any questions or concerns, call us at 870-389-6328 prior to ordering.

The pad that set the standard!

5 Star Experiences

Michele Watson

Love the 5 Star Pads, it's the only pad we've used that does not compress down and ensures us our horses are riding in comfort from barrels to trails.

In 2009, Shoii shattered the knee joint of his right hind leg, rendering unable to flex the joint once it healed. Although his body was a little beat-up, his heart certainly was not and I could tell that it was still very important to him to "take me out for a ride."

Mandee Fetzer

I love my 5 star pad because it literally makes my horse smile! It is the only pad I have used that truly fits my horse's back. Elvis would rear up and become upset when I used my other pad.

I love your 5 Star Pads. Keep up the good work! My horses and I are depending on you.

Mariah Williams

I choose 5 Star pads exclusively because the comfort they provide the horse is unbeatable. I received excellent help from one of your dealers. She made me feel very informed and confident about my decision. The product is unmatched in reliability, performance, and attractiveness.
