100% would recommend to others.

One of my favorite purchases by far! I bought this pad because my horse is difficult to fit a saddle to. He has wide shoulders but a narrow whither. What fits his shoulder perfectly sits low on the whither and what sits correctly on his whither and back is too narrow for his shoulder. This pad saved me a lot of time and money. My saddle fits perfectly now and I haven't seen a sore spot on him since I've been using it. The moment I began riding in it, I could feel a complete change in my horses…

Pros
  • perfect and comfortable. not too thick not too thin, airmesh for breathing.
Cons
  • May not be suitable for horses with sensitive skin

So far so good on my review.

Started using this pad with my western saddle about two weeks ago. I will do an update in a couple of months. My horse to seems to be comfortable. 1 inch pad felt pad. It also is a quality product and have several I keep in rotation but, this mare seemed to be more sensitive and I felt like she would respond better with closer contact so that's the reason for my purchase. So far so good

Pros
  • Great comfort for both me and horse. Nice gel like feel.
Cons
  • Gel padding may become less effective over time

Return shipping is not free!

Purchased this but it didn't fit. Was too thick under the saddle. Disappointed to find out I had to pay $25 to ship it back. :(

Pros
  • Tack
Cons
  • May create additional pressure points on horse's back

Great saddle pad! for my opinion

I've tried a few different saddle pads, but hadn't found the right one for my horse. The Kavallerie 3D Air-Mesh Half Pad/Saddle Pad fits my horse really well and has made a significant difference on how my saddle sits (it doesn't move around) on my horse. He is very happy too!

Pros
  • ✅ HOLDS THE WHOLE SADDLE IN PLACE - It is important to properly tack your saddles before riding. Kavallerie Half Pad can help keep your saddle in place by providing a gel surface that sticks to your saddle and saddle pad to keep your horse tack secured and sturdy.
Cons
  • May not provide enough support for certain riders' needs

Excellent cushioning, but not very durable

This pad is definitely effective: provides excellent cushioning and weight distribution, keeps my horse from getting a sore back.I wish it was a bit more durable though - after just 4 months it is starting to tear at the seam (see pic).

Pros
  • Sports & Outdoors
Cons
  • May not be suitable for certain riding disciplines

Great quality. for my opinion

Great quality. It’s put together really well, doesn’t slip, and the gel pockets sit exactly where they should under my saddle. Comfortable for the horse and rider as well which I wasn’t expecting. The only thing I didn’t like was that the back extends a bit too long past the gel part which makes it a bit big for my saddle blankets. But all in all it’s a great half pad.

Pros
  • ‎Taiwan
Cons
  • May be too expensive compared to other similar products on the market

length is long - my new review

I wanted to love this pad as the construction seemed great, however, it is very long, exceeds an English 17.5 saddle and standard size saddle pad. Almost 2" hangs out the back.

Pros
  • For the price the quality is fantastic my horse loves it and so do i
Cons
  • May add additional bulk to saddle fit

Saddle fit is checked professionally every few months because the horse has had back surgery. In the winter I ride in a therapeutic pad that does great, but its heat reflective properties make it unsuitable for June thru September in Alabama. I bought this pad to absorb impact at the cantle AND permit air circulation during summer. This pad DOES both of these things well, but it does jack up the pommel, too, which has earned me some dirty looks from my WB gelding. Pad is about 3/4" thick and…

Pros
  • ‎0.98 Kilograms
Cons
  • May not be suitable for horses with back issues

Well made half pad. I did experience slipping with it, which was frustrating as that was part of the reason I chose to purchase this pad. While riding in it I could tell it was a great shock absorber and initially my horse was very comfortable in it, until it began to slip backwards. Was not as thick as I expected, and the pressure on my horse's shoulders and beneath the panels at the deepest part of the seat did not disperse as well as with a sheepskin or firm memory foam half pad. There was…

Pros
  • Excellent product quality!!! Happy and very satisfied customer!! Also super quick delivery!!
Cons
  • May not provide enough ventilation in hot weather

Wish it would fit my 16.5 saddle.

So, I ordered this half pad to see if I would fit under my saddle better than my other one. Still to big. So, I’m going to return this one, since I already have the one with the trimming. Love that half pad.

Pros
  • ✅ RELIVES HEAT AND DISCOMFORT - With light 3D Air-Mesh, PU foam material, and holes through the added gel padding which allows airflow to regulate heat build-up quickly that causes discomfort to your horses, this half pad is a tacking essential.
Cons
  • May not be durable enough for long-term use

Not super impressed - price point too high for type of pad

Was not super impressed, the material did have some padding however for the price point I expected it to be a lot better. I have a bareback pad made with the same squishy/rubber underneath and while granted it is more comfortable than say a $20 cheap fleece half pad - for almost $80 I could not justify keeping it.It is rather long - my close contact is 17" and I had a good 3+ inches left behind which put the rubber top piece at the wrong spots. If you had a larger saddle I am sure this…

Pros
  • Sports
Cons
  • May not provide enough shock absorption for heavy impact activities

Amazing pad! for my opinion

Love this gel pad. Really great for my horses back and keeps my saddle from moving! Fits nicely under my saddle I have a 16.5” and there’s plenty of room for bigger saddles. It has a very nice arch in the front for high withers which is awesome. Great for jumping and the impact on his back during it!

Pros
  • ✅ SHOCK-ABSORBING AND LIGHTWEIGHT - Kavallerie 3D Air-Mesh Half Pad is uniquely designed with added lightweight gel padding that evenly distributes the pressure on your horse’s back relieving pain and promotes healthier and comfortable rides.
Cons
  • May be too thick for certain riders' preferences

Excellent half pad best in my review

I have this pad in both black and white. I love it. I have an OTTB with Kissing Spine and this allows us to keep great clearance (even with a properly fitted saddle) over the spine as well as allowing muscle support. We use it with our English and our Aussie saddles.

Pros
  • all great
Cons
  • I only ride once a week and after using this product for 3 months the rubber front patch came off.
