Dressage saddle pads are designed with a longer, straighter cut to accommodate the deeper flaps of a dressage saddle. They deliver a protective layer between your saddle and your horse’s back, designed to sit anatomically to reduce friction and absorb sweat so that your horse stays comfortable during training and competition. By preventing wear and tear on your saddle, dressage saddle pads also help to keep your horse gear in excellent condition, for longer.

Available in a variety of fabrics, designs, colours, and embellishments, our dressage saddle pad range lets you express your style while adhering to competition standards. From the timeless look of a white dressage saddle pad to subtle pastels, or more bold, eye-catching and contemporary looks, at EQ Saddlery we have the perfect pad to match your aesthetic and tack.

FAQs

What colour saddle pad is best for dressage?

Traditionally, white dressage saddle pads are used in competitions as they provide a clean, crisp and professional look. But for training and everyday use, there is a huge range of dressage saddle pads you can enjoy. Choose from an array of colours, patterns, and styles to express your style. Maximise the benefits of natural fibres like the supreme comfort, breathability, and sustainability of organic bamboo, or explore merino wool or cotton fabrics in a style that matches your tack. You’ll find the ideal kit at EQ Saddlery.

What colours can you wear for dressage?

While a white dressage saddle pad is standard for competition, training attire gives you more freedom to experiment. Dark, neutral tones like navy, black, and grey are always popular choices for dressage, but bright colours and patterns are increasingly popular in more casual settings. It’s always best to check your competition’s dress code for specific requirements and speak to our team to learn more about trending styles and innovations.

Do dressage saddles have to be black?

No, dressage saddles don’t have to be black. While black is the most common choice, brown dressage saddles are also used, particularly in less formal settings. Your choice of saddle colour is a personal preference, selected to complement your horse’s tack and overall look. You can explore a range of styles and colours in person at any of our EQ Saddlery stores, or browse our website to put together your ideal kit.
