saddle blankets for Icelandic horses
Icelandic horses are a unique breed of horse with special needs when it comes to choosing the right saddle and saddle pad .
The body structure of Icelandic horses is characterized by their short back , strong muscles and robust bone structure . These characteristics make them strong and enduring horses that are able to work in difficult terrain. In order to optimally support the Icelandic horse during training, it is important that the saddle and saddle pad are precisely tailored to their needs.
A good saddle pad for Icelandic horses should meet various requirements. First of all, it should not slip in order to enable stable riding. The pad from L'Evoine meets this requirement thanks to its ergonomic shape and the freedom of the spine , which does not require re-chambering.
In addition, it is important that the rider can feel the swinging movements of the horse's back in order to enable a fine communication of the weight aids . The padded saddle pads from L'Evoine offer exactly that, as they are made of breathable natural materials and shock-absorbing alpaca fleece and adapt perfectly to the horse's back.
An optimal saddle pad for Icelandic horses should not only provide sensitive weight support but also offer optimized pressure distribution without adding bulk. The alpaca fleece saddle blankets and pads from L'Evoine offer excellent shock absorption to reduce the strain on the horse's back. Shocks are absorbed, weight is evenly distributed and the horse's back is optimally supported even under heavy loads.
In addition to these important properties, a good saddle pad should also be breathable and absorb sweat to the outside. The high-quality natural materials from L'Evoine guarantee perfect air circulation between the saddle and the horse's back. All saddle pads from L'Evoine are lined with cotton fleece and have an undyed cotton molleton on the underside, which is particularly absorbent. The saddle pads and saddle blankets are also available with a shock-absorbing and particularly breathable alpaca fleece layer.
In summary, L'Evoine's saddle pads, such as the Alpaca fleece pad combined with a pure cotton saddle pad or a single saddle pad lined with alpaca fleece (2:1 version) , offer everything Icelandic horses need for comfortable and supportive riding. They meet the needs of this special breed of horse and enable precise communication between rider and horse without slipping or adding height.
