Close Contact Suede Square - Papaya
Now with a New Super Soft Suede Binding and New PU Leather Girth Protection area, the classic Close-Contact cut from LeMieux is designed to fit a wide range of more forward cut jumping saddles. Now one of the most iconic jumping pads with its high wither, elasticated D-Ring tabs and swept back profile . These saddle pads offer a very sleek and professional look to anyone’s saddle. The luxurious suede top side and new soft suede binding is complimented by super soft Bamboo lining which absorbs & controls sweat under the saddle and is beautifully comfortable and secure - minimising friction even on sensitive skinned horses. Girth keepers incorporate inner locking loops to offer more girthing options.
There are several attractive colours with more new ones being added seasonally and a selection of new Small/Med pads to accommodate smaller saddles.
Consider matching your Suede Close Contact pad with a Classic Fly Hood in the same colour.

A horse rug is an essential part of caring for your horse and a rug that fits correctly is key to protect your horse and keep them safe and comfortable.
Measuring your horse
Feet and Inches
To measure your horse, use a soft tape measure and measure from the centre of the chest to the end of the buttocks.
Centimeters
To measure your horse for a rug with European sizing (cm) measure from the withers, across the back to the top of the tail.
Fitting a rug
The rug should fit well over the withers and the shoulders so that the horse can move freely without the rug slipping back.
The straps should be tight enough to hold the rug in place, but not so tight that they cause the rug’s shape to distort on the horse’s back. If too tight they may cause pressure points around the horse’s chest and wither area.
Cross surcingles should be fastened so you can fit a hand’s breadth between the surcingles and the horse’s body. This means that the straps are tight enough to prevent legs becoming caught should the horse lie down, but not so tight to cause discomfort.
If the rug has leg straps, they should be fastened so that the left strap is passed around the left hind leg and fastened back to the left side. The right strap should then pass around the right hind leg, loop through the left strap, and then fasten to the right side. There should be about 4-5” between the strap and the horse’s leg to prevent the rug slipping without causing the horse any discomfort.
