Competition Dressage CoolBack Pad | White

Cool Back is a 100% orthopaedic polyester fleece material. The material combines great breathability with a flexible underside, providing good protection for the horse's back - even after hours of training and work. Underlay with Cool Back is designed to efficiently dissipate heat and is also highly wicking. Cool Back is also easy to maintain, as it can be washed in the washing machine and tumble dried.

When the Matrix material gets cold, it can become hard, so we recommend storing Matrix underlay and tack at a minimum of 15⁰ C. The material is not damaged by low temperatures, so if it is not possible to store the products in a heated place, this is not a problem.

Maintenance:
To give your Matrix underlay the best conditions to work optimally for the horse, you should make sure that it hangs dry when not in use. Store the pad in a place where it can ventilate and dry if the horse has been sweating while riding. The pad can be brushed with a stiff brush to remove horse hair. Machine washable - but remember to remove the inserts! Follow the instructions on the washing label.

Matrix has developed the underlay and padding for the best shock absorption. During riding, both horse and rider are exposed to many shocks that propagate through the back - it is extremely stressful. It is to minimize the degree of impact that Matrix has developed (and continues to develop) their underlay and underlay inserts. By minimizing the degree of impact, both the horse's and rider's back can be spared enormously. Riders who suffer from a bad back can benefit greatly from a Matrix pad, as can horses who are prone to back pain.
