The Close Contact 30" x 30" or 30" X 28"

Description

The Close Contact 5 Star Saddle Pad is specifically designed to fit the "butterfly" shaped skirts of many of today's popular saddles. Physical touch can create a relationship with your horse not possible without it. The butterfly-cut close contact saddle pad is perfect to complement butterfly saddle skirts, and it enables you to maintain that "close contact" feel with your horse. The contoured shape of 5 Star Equine Products' pads fit your horse like a glove, and the 100% pure virgin wool felt wicks away moisture, cleans up easily and stabilizes your saddle with limited cinching. Wear leathers provide protection and durability. Hand-made in the USA!

Pad Specifications:

  • 30"Wide x 30"Long
  • Colors: Natural, Black, Dark Chocolate, Turquoise, Hot Pink, Purple & Red
  • Thickness: 1/2", 3/4", 7/8", 1"r

5 Star recommends 1" - 2" of pad showing around the perimeter of your saddle. Measure your saddle before ordering for proper fit.

5 Star uses high quality real leather for the basic, stamped, hair on and printed wear leathers. Due to the nature of leather, variances in color, pattern and style can occur with each hide. The swatches and photos of our wear leathers are only a close representation of the actual leather. We cannot guarantee the cut of our patterned leathers as no two will be the same. If you have any questions or concerns, call us at 870-389-6328 prior to ordering.

The pad that set the standard!

5 Star Experiences

Tiffany Cox

I have two Five Star pads that I purchased for my barrel horse Popcorn. My old hand me down barrel saddle didn't fit correctly and he was sore in his back. The pad I purchased fixed the problem with my old saddle and made him very comfortable! They are beautifully made and very durable.

Jessica Rockett

I don't have a 5 star pad, but I've always wanted one! I've heard only great things about them. My 4 year old gelding is my barrel, rope, trail, and ranch horse.

Tiffany Cox

When I was able to purchase a new saddle I bought another Five Star pad because I was so impressed with them. They are beautifully made and very durable. I absolutely love these pads!!!

Taylor McGivern

It's very reassuring to know I paid for an excellent product that will last many many years. I will never use any other brand! If only I could get another to use at the same time on my other horse!

Megan O'Connor

Love my 5 stars!! My saddles fit so much better with the 5 stars than any other pads! They last forever the one in the photo is 10 years old and is just starting to show its wear n tear! I'd love a replacement!
