I received my bareback pad on Friday and used it right away. I LOVE IT SO MUCH. I felt so secure and I didn’t even use stirrups! My horse is Icelandics and that means he has no withers and he is round and it works great. I was so impressed with the quality and how comfortable I was. Thank you so much, it was worth the wait. I still can’t believe how well it is made. Thank you again for making such a great bareback pad!!
