What riders say about CoolBack saddle pads
I have used the Coolback pads for many years and each of them is still in fabulous shape. My horses are comfortable, and the pads wash very well- I hand wash mine and line dry them. I would buy them in every color!
This is the 4th Toklat CoolBack Tucker saddle pad I've purchased and I absolutely love this pad! It is moisture-wicking, and keeps my horse's back cooler than any other pad I've used. It can be washed in the washing machine and they hold up really well. The thick padding fills in areas where my saddle isn't snug to my horse's back and compresses in others for the perfect fit.
I bought this pad in red to go under my new Wintec Wide AP saddle. It looks beautiful, fits nicely and glues the saddle to the horse. Once we've warmed up, there is no movement between the pad and the horse and the saddle and the pad. This is really 'special' when you ride a round and wide horse.
This is hands down the most amazing dressage pad. Excellent for long trail rides in warm weather. It kept my horse cool and comfortable.
The CoolBack Edit
CoolBack fleece pads: cushion for western, endurance and bareback miles
The numbered sections cover the western pads, the endurance shapes, the bareback pads and accessories, how to size and wash a CoolBack pad, and which horses and riders it suits.
Western pads
CoolBack western pads that add cushion in three thicknesses
CoolBack western pads cushion the horse's back in three builds, all made in the USA from dense, closely shorn polyester fleece that Toklat designs to resist matting and slipping. The Standard Western Pad is the everyday choice, easy to wash and dry. The Rancher Triple Thick Western Pad adds a triple thick fleece layer for long days in the saddle or a sensitive horse. One rider who moved up from the two-layer pad wrote that it is "only thick where you need it." The Pommel Pad stacks a double layer of fleece to lift the front of the saddle. Look elsewhere if you want a pad shaped for an English saddle; these three are western pads.
What Riders Say
CoolBack Rancher Triple Thick Western Pad
I already was using the regular Toklat Coolback pads (two layers), and liked them, just didn't feel there was enough padding for long days in the saddle (clinics, schooling shows, etc.). So on a whim I ordered the triple thick pad. A. Mazing! (cue the angels singing) It's only thick where you need it, and my horse loves the extra padding. Washing is a cinch (you can't throw those Coolbacks in the washer and drier enough. They love it)! Now I don't even want to use my regular Coolback pads, and all my other pads are collecting dust on a shelf.
My horse and I love this pad! My mare has a sensitive back and skin, but she moves out well with this pad and is 100% comfortable. It looks great and fits my saddle like a glove. It is quite thick and I had to lengthen my stirrups, but it didn't make my saddle any less stable.
Endurance pads
CoolBack endurance pads cut to fit endurance saddles
CoolBack endurance pads are shaped for endurance saddles, with Toklat listing the Barrel Endurance Pad as a fit for most cut-back barrel saddles too. Its endurance cut and medical grade polyester fleece aim for maximum cushion with minimal slip. For a horse with more wither, the High Profile Endurance Pad is made to fit most endurance saddles and properly fit higher-withered horses. Riders in dressage saddles have written that the shape fits theirs, and Toklat's own note says to check the size chart for saddle fit. Look elsewhere if you want a full-size pad for a standard flat-cut saddle; these two are made for endurance and cut-back barrel saddles.
What Riders Say
This is a great endurance pad. It's everything it's advertised to be. I've had several Toklat pads over the years and I think the Coolback material holds up better than the Woolback. I do wish this pad had a velcro billet keeper. I ride in a dressage saddle and I see a lot of endurance people use this style pad with an English saddle.
I love this pad! It fits my dressage saddle perfectly. I use this pad during endurance rides and it keeps my horse comfortable and cool!
Beyond the pad
CoolBack bareback pads, seat savers and girths in one fleece
CoolBack bareback pads, seat savers, girths and covers bring the brand's fleece to the places a saddle pad does not reach. The Standard Bareback Pad has a wither hand hold and a double adjustable cinch. The Western Seat Saver fits snug with elastic around the cantle and fits most western saddles. The Contoured Girth w/Double Elastic pairs a nylon spine with an orthopedic fleece body, double elastic on both ends and a contoured shape, measured buckle to buckle. The Cinch Cover measures 40" x 4" to keep leather cinches clean and cut chafing, and the Noseband Cover guards against noseband rubs. For hauling, the Four Piece Halter Set covers crown, cheeks and noseband. Look elsewhere if you need a halter itself; the set lists the halter as not included.
Sizing and care
CoolBack pad sizing and care: machine wash, tumble dry
CoolBack pad sizing starts with the saddle: Toklat tells riders to check each product's size chart for saddle fit, especially on the Barrel Endurance Pad and the High Profile Endurance Pad. Care is easy because Toklat lists these pads as machine washable and dryer safe, and says regular washing helps the fleece perform. One rider wrote that she can wash and dry a pad within an hour and be ready to ride. Three steps cover the routine.
- Brush the hair off the fleece before washing, then again after the pad is dry.
- Wash in a standard home machine; Toklat lists CoolBack pads as machine washable.
- Dry in the dryer, which Toklat lists as safe, then check the pad sits flat under the saddle.
A pad that sits flat and clean under the saddle is the goal, so wash it whenever sweat and hair build up.
What Riders Say
I am so completely excited about my Coolback pads!! An endurance friend recommended this shape pad for my saddle and it worked great!! I just ordered two more so I have three fun colors I can alternate. I love how I can wash and dry this pad within an hour and I'm ready to go!
Wonderful pad! After four hours of walking, trotting, and cantering on rough trails, my horse exhibited no soreness. The ease of throwing it in the washing machine and dryer would make this pad a winner even without the wonderful cushiness and shock absorption.
Who it's for
CoolBack saddle pads for sensitive backs and long days
CoolBack saddle pads suit riders of sensitive-backed horses, riders logging long hours in the saddle, trail and endurance riders, and anyone who wants a pad that goes in the home washer. Riders tell us the thickness and contour are what they notice first; one wrote that it works for a high-withered horse, another called it the best shaped pad out there. For clinics and schooling shows, one rider moved up to the Rancher Triple Thick Western Pad, and endurance riders with a high-withered horse can start with the High Profile Endurance Pad. Look elsewhere if you prefer a thin, close-contact pad; CoolBack is built around cushion.
What Riders Say
I JUST received this pad for the holidays! I marvel at its thickness and cushioned comfort! Easily the best shaped pad out there!
I love the color, thickness, and contour of this pad. Works great for my high withered boy.
