We love the Thin ImpacTeq Half Pads with Shims because they were designed with input from top riders and professional saddle fitters. The ImpacTeq construction provides a unique combination of comfort and protection for your horse’s back, and our shims allow for an individualized fit for each horse.

This shimmable half pad is an outstanding solution for correcting saddle fit, for riders who use one saddle on multiple horses, and for any horse whose back is changing – such as young horses and those returning to work after time off. 

A close-contact version of the UltraWool ImpacTeq Half Pad, With the addition of shims. Absorbs concussion using a carefully-selected, low profile open cell foam found in sports equipment and technical footwear. Includes a complete set of 6mm felt shims for the shoulders, center and rear, six in total. Descreet pocket design thoughtfully placed to avoid unwanted bulk near the spine. Multi-dimensional air mesh layer promotes airflow and circulation. Distibutes and reduces harmful pressure points under the saddle. Provides ample room for withers and spine. Recovers to the original shape after each use. Soft, plush trim is eye-catching and helps maintain saddle placement. Grippy strips on the underside help stabilize the saddle pad for minimal movement. Includes materials that discourage bacterial growth. Wipes clean with a damp cloth.
