About Thinline

The Comfy Horse Company recommends Thinline for bareback pads, saddle pads and seatsavers for the comfort of both horse and rider – many other products are available in the range and can be ordered in!

ThinLine Tack Technology

It gives riders a closer, quieter connection. Shock absorbing health benefits coupled with fixed soft contact produce better riders and happier horses.

Beginning as a liquid, open cells are poured then polarized so each cell lies end to end. Another layer is poured then polarized in a new direction. Repeated hundreds of times creating a honey comb matrix allowing impact and heat to move laterally. Impact moves ACROSS ThinLine producing a completely different ride your horse will love.

Open cell technology transfers recoil off the horses back laterally rather than directly up into the base of the rider’s spine. Non Slip and Breathable. Saddle Pads shim for perfect saddle fit.

Integrity and softness allow ThinLine to flex and stretch over high withers, around bones, splints, girths or saddle pressure points without bottoming out (like memory foam, or moving, like gel).
When warmed to body temperature ThinLine conforms to the horse supporting tendons, muscles; relieving pressure and impact. When returned to room temperature 75° F, it rebounds to its original shape. The life span of this process is typically 7-9 years.

Who buys ThinLine and why?

  1. Is your back sore after riding?
  2. Do you wish you could sit quieter and make your aids more subtle?
  3. Does your tack move?
  4. Do you wish for better contact?
  5. Does your tack rub your horse?
  6. Do you wonder if your saddle fits well?


If you answered yes to any or all of these questions we hope you will try a ThinLine pad to see and feel the difference it can make.

Shock absorption works laterally rather than recoiling back into the riders and horses’ spin. It is sold and endorsed by veterinarians, equine chiropractors, saddle fitters and equine massage therapists’ around the world.
