The Wilkers Cling On Close Contact Saddle Pad is an innovative design, featuring four unique grip patches: two located on the underside of the pad, on either side of the withers, and two on the top side of the pad. These grip patches help hold the pad in place, making conventional straps unnecessary. No more messing with billet straps that are too short! This pad has a white cotton quilted bottom and a white fleece top. It's a great saddle pad for horse showing. This pad is machine washable and dryer safe. For best care: Machine wash warm. Tumble dry, low heat. No chlorine bleach.
