The Valore Wither Relief Saddle Pad is designed to protect one of the most sensitive and often overlooked areas of the horse’s back: the wither, where the thoracic trapezius muscle begins. Most saddle pads apply subtle, constant pressure in this area, limiting shoulder freedom and causing discomfort over time, even if the horse doesn’t have pronounced withers.

Thanks to its uniquely engineered built-in wither pads, the Valore wither relief pad lifts completely away from the withers, relieving pressure, reducing friction, and safeguarding the delicate muscle and ligament structures that are essential for healthy, unrestricted movement.

The sculpted anatomical shape hugs the horse’s back without shifting or bunching, giving you a secure, elegant fit.

Against your horse’s skin, you’ll find soft, natural cotton, breathable, moisture-wicking, and gentle. Whether schooling or showing, your horse stays dry, cool, and comfortable beneath the saddle.
