Withers Free Hexa Gel Half Pad & Back Riser W microfleece Back Sheep Edge

The Acavallo whiters-free Hexagonal Gel compensator with rear riser, microfleece, and sheepskin on the rear edge combines the non-slip, shock-absorbing, and breathable properties of the Acavallo Hexagonal Gel models with a microfleece lining on the lower part and a sheepskin rear edge. The non-slip, shock-absorbing, hexagonal-shaped gel of this compensator, combined with microfleece fabric on the lower part and a 4mm thick open-cell foam inside, make it breathable while maintaining maximum comfort on the horse's back. Thanks to the hexagonal gel structure, air is compressed inside the compensator's cells and is automatically expelled as the horse moves, creating an air cushion under the saddle , making it suitable for any style and size of English saddle . The central part of the compensator is thinner, allowing it to better adapt to the withers and the horse's back, thus ensuring greater space between saddle and the gel, allowing continuous air circulation. The back of the compensator is partially lined with Acavallo Sheepskin, a natural, non-allergenic material that is soft, delicate, and perfectly suited to preventing chafing, abrasions, and blisters. The benefits of Sheepskin, combined with the Gel, give a significant aesthetic boost to the traditional Acavallo Gel compensators. Acavallo Classic Gel is hypoallergenic, non-toxic, and does not react negatively to skin contact, characteristics that allow the compensator to be used directly on the skin. The Gel can also be cut and therefore adapted, if necessary, to any type of saddle . Acavallo Sheepskin is a natural, hypoallergenic, soft, and delicate material that can prevent chafing, abrasions, and blisters. The wool selected by Acavallo has a very high density of fibers per square centimeter, making it the best emollient padding available in nature. Furthermore, sheepskin does not emit electrostatic charges if the compensator rubs against the horse's skin, thus acting as a 100% insulator. Another essential characteristic of the material is that it immediately absorbs sweat, releasing it into the outside air seven times faster than synthetic materials.
