Unmatched Comfort. Unrivaled Innovation.
Our lightweight, advanced pad is engineered to keep your equine cool, comfortable, and performing at their best — whether you're packing into the backcountry, racing in Colorado's iconic burro races, or bringing charm to a wedding event.
This one-of-a-kind design offers superior ventilation, relieves spine pressure, and allows full, unrestricted movement — with no interference at the shoulders or hips. Its extended length cushions beneath the latigo rings, reducing pressure points for ultimate comfort.
Featuring a rugged four-layer build — waterproof Cordura Nylon exterior, 1/2" synthetic felt, and a double-layer breathable core — it delivers 3/4" of flexible, shock-absorbing support with outstanding airflow. The innovative double pad design with clip-on attachments ensures there’s zero pressure along the spine.
Specifically designed for our saddles but versatile enough to fit many others, this pad is the new standard for comfort, durability, and performance.
There’s simply nothing else like it on the market.
The Truth About Felt Pads
Many budget-friendly pads use low-cost felt and while they may save money upfront, they often trap heat and moisture against your animal’s back.
In our testing using hygrometers, we consistently found that felt pads retain significantly more heat during use. Combined with pressure and friction, this creates the perfect conditions for soreness and white hair spots.
At Mountain Ridge Gear, we designed the TrailBreeze Pad to combat these issues, enhancing airflow and reducing heat buildup so your animal stays cooler, drier, and more comfortable on the trail.
Cheap gear costs more in the long run. We use better materials for better performance. No shortcuts.
