What riders say about Shires ARMA saddle pads
Riders tell us their Shires ARMA pads keep horses cooler, wash up easily and fit without rubbing, from airy Air Motion mesh to the shaped Performance pads and the corrective half pad.
I have multiple saddle pads from this brand and I love how classy and simple they look. They are a great shape that comes up at the withers and down by the girth. They are super easy to clean and they are breathable for the horse. It is my go to brand for a saddle pad!
★★★★★
Really impressed this is the first pad that hasn’t rubbed my mare love it
I have a Wintec with cair panels that I take with me for training rides at client farms; I really like how this Arma half pad fits the vast majority of horses well enough for a 30 min test ride with that saddle.
In the spotlight

Shop all ›Shires ARMA saddle pads: which line is right for you
Choose a Shires ARMA saddle pad by the finish you want and the job it does: Satin and Elegance for a polished ring look, Deluxe Cotton and Lite for everyday riding, Air Motion Luxe and Performance for airflow and wicking, and SupaFleece or Acrilan for a fleece lining.
For the ring, the Satin Dressage Saddle Pad is a satin quilted pad with a contour top and contrast piping and trim, and Satin also comes in all purpose and jump shapes. The Elegance 2.0 All Purpose Saddlepad runs linear quilting over Ultra dri-zone lining that wicks sweat away; Elegance 1.0 is square quilted and Elegance 3.0 is chevron, in all purpose and jump shapes.
For everyday riding, the Deluxe Cotton Dressage Saddle Pad has a 100% cotton outer with small square quilting, Ultra Dry-Zone lining, a girth guard and self-color binding, and the Deluxe Cotton family adds all purpose, jump and half pad versions. The Lite Saddle Pad keeps it simple with diamond quilting, a contour topline and a girth loop. Deluxe Cotton and Lite are both machine washable.
For hot rides, the Air Motion Luxe Saddle Pad pairs airflow fabric and non crush quilting with a moisture wicking lining. Riders tell us the Air Motion mesh keeps their horses cooler and the Performance pads stay breathable and easy to clean. For a fleece feel, the SupaFleece Fully Lined Shaped Saddle Pad is lined in SupaFleece, and the Acrilan Lined Saddle Pad pairs a small box quilt with synthetic fleece underneath.
ARMA corrective pads and shims: fixing saddle fit
Pick a Shires ARMA corrective pad when you want to adjust how the saddle sits instead of stacking a half pad under a square pad. The Shaped Pad w/Corrective Shims is quilted with SupaFleece and has 4 shim pockets with 3 sets of low compression shims, and it is sized by saddle size.
The Corrective Saddle Pad is a classic quilted square with four shim pockets, three sets of low compression shims, billet and girth straps and wear leathers. For a half pad, the Corrective Half Pad carries the same four pockets and three sets of shims, and the Corrective Lined Half Pad adds a SupaFleece lining.
Shires ARMA saddle pad sizing: match the pad to your saddle size
Size a Shires ARMA saddle pad by your saddle's seat size: find the range in the table that covers your seat, then match the pad's shape, dressage, all purpose or jump, to your saddle.
When your seat size appears in two ranges, take the closer fit: a 17.5 inch seat sits in both 17-18 and 17.5-18, and 17.5-18 is the tighter match. The Pony/Cob and Cob/Horse ranges cover pony, cob and cob-to-horse saddles.

| 16-16.5 | 16 to 16.5 inches |
| 17 | 17 inches |
| 17-17.5 | 17 to 17.5 inches |

| 17.5-18 | 17.5 to 18 inches |

Who Shires ARMA saddle pads are for
Shires ARMA saddle pads are for English riders who want a quilted pad shaped to their saddle, from the show ring to the cross-country field, and for riders who want to fine tune saddle fit.
- Show-ring riders choose Satin pads for a satin quilted pad with a contour top and coordinating piping and trim, such as the Satin AP Saddle Pad.
- Jumpers and eventers choose the Elegance 3.0 Jump Saddlepad for its Jump/Euro X-Country shape, chevron quilting and Ultra dri-zone lining.
- Riders working on saddle fit choose the Corrective Lined Half Pad for its four shim pockets, three sets of shims and SupaFleece lining.
- Riders who want a fleece feel and an easy wash choose the Acrilan Lined Saddle Pad, with a small box quilt over synthetic fleece.
Look elsewhere if you want a real sheepskin lining or a western pad: ARMA fleece linings are synthetic and every pad here is cut for English saddles.
