Technologies/Materials:
Coolback® synthetic fleece contains a special combination of resilient polyester fibers and durable denier to provide the best in recovery over long-term use and washing as well as concussion protection, air circulation and moisture/heat management.
Woolback® virgin knit-wool fleece is resilient, durable pile material offering superior moisture wicking and heat dispersal with high breathe-ability, concussion protection and comfort. Woolback fleece is natural white in color.
Linear Quilt ETC™ Fabric provides a non-slip, anti-friction surface for a secure and stable saddle position while the linear quilt pattern passes moisture and heat readily through the lightweight batting creating exceptional heat dispersal and breathability.
Ergonomic Design features inserts with a longer front to complement the natural contour of the horse's shoulder to provide a custom fit that supports muscle development without interfering with important muscle groups.

Previous Feedback
Comments: Got this pad a few weeks ago and love it. My horse tests positive for an allergy to sheep's wool so almost all my pads are a problem. This works great. I debated about spending the money for this rather than a regular coolback pad. Glad I opted for matrix. I like having the opening for shims and also the non-fleece top (fewer places for stickers and not so bulky) I didn't care for the brown color (which surprised me) but love the black. Highly recommend. No slipping, nice contour, great moisture wicking.

Comments: I have loved my WOOLBACK versions of this pad for over a year now but thought I needed a backup pad and this is a winner! It cleans up pretty nice, too. Toklat just seems to be the one I keep coming back to.

Comments: Wow- I am so impressed with this saddle pad! It fits perfectly with my Tucker Tevis saddle, and my horse couldn’t be happier. I love that the fleece is on the bottom, but it has a quilted top- seems like it might stay cleaner. I got the inserts to go with, and my horse has a perfect even sweat mark. His back doesn’t get sore, and the contoured top works well with his high withers.

Comments: My favorite endurance pad! Fits my Synergist saddle well, no slippage, keeps my horse's back cool and washes beautifully. And, I can add shims if my horse changes shape - perfect!

Comments: Jeremy and I have been using the Matrix pad on our whole herd and have been extremely satisfied. The pads dry quickly and are the first pad that actually do what is advertised, keep the back cooler! Our 10 endurance horses all have happy backs. Riverwatch and A Kutt Above were proud to wear their Matrix pads at the 2012 World Endurance Championship race in Thetford, England and were on the USA Team which placed 4th.

Comments: Since using the Matrix pads our horses performance has excelled. Our horses are moving more free, staying cooler in the topline, and their fatigue is at a much lower rate. The Matrix pad is the ONLY way to go to excell in our sport!
