For which saddle or bareback pad should the pad be suitable?
To ensure that the pad you ordered fits well, it is important to indicate which saddle/bareback pad brand, model, and size the saddle has. All available options are listed in the choice menu, in short, the brands: Barefoot, Christ, EDIX, Freeform, Ghost, Grandeur, Hidalgo, Sensation Ride, Startrekk, Quantum, and Trekker. When available, the back length x side length is also indicated in centimeters behind each version. So, if your saddle is not available in the choice menu, you can see if the dimensions of another saddle may be suitable. The measuring method is shown in the image below:
Colors of Grandeur pads:

The fabrics that Grandeur uses for the colors are of high quality and do not/minimally fade in washing or through use. Images of the various colors can be found in the product photos.
Traditional square stitching:
- white

Binding of Grandeur:
The binding of the Grandeur pad can also be colored according to your preferences. This is the binding. There are three colors:
Top side of Grandeur pad:
- fabric only
- neoprene non-slip layer
- neoprene non-slip layer with built-in extra insert pocket for thin inserts
- sympanova non-slip layer with built-in extra insert pocket for thin inserts
The top side (outer side) of the pad can be made of fabric only or a non-slip layer at the level of the inserts. This non-slip layer can be made of neoprene or sympanova. If you want a non-slip layer, sympanova is recommended for saddles with a synthetic wool or leather underside, such as Barefoots and EDIX saddles, unless your horse is very round. Neoprene is better suited for saddles with a sheepskin underside or horses that are very round. An extra insert pocket can also be built into the non-slip layer, this is only suitable for thin inserts or correction shims. Ideal if you need a little more height. See current surcharge in the choice menu.
Underside Insert Pockets:
- non-slip sympanova
- synthetic wool black
- non-slip sympanova with synthetic wool black at the back
- synthetic wool black with synthetic leather at the back (anti hair breakage)
- synthetic wool camel
The finish of the insert pockets can be done with 4 different options. You have the choice between synthetic wool black and non-slip sympanova, which incurs an additional charge. Please note: for sensitive skin, this material can cause chafing. See the image below for what "non-slip sympanova with synthetic wool black at the back" looks like.
Details:
There is a lot to choose from with the Grandeur pads, including the finish of the edge/binding. This can be decorated with a single or double decorative cord in gold or silver. See surcharge in the choice menu.
- no decorative cord
- decorative cord silver single
- decorative cord silver double
- decorative cord gold single
- decorative cord gold double
Inserts:
For optimal pressure distribution, the insert pockets can be filled with various types of inserts. You can use your own inserts in the pad that you already have available, but you can also order a new set, then you do not have to change the inserts. The advantage of this is also that the inserts are delivered tailored to the pad. There are various types with different prices, see choice menu. Are you satisfied with the current pressure distribution of your saddle with inserts? Then we recommend ordering the same type of inserts.
Maintenance:
Grandeur saddle pads are made of specially selected high-quality materials. They are machine washable at 40°C, then briefly spin. The pads cannot be tumble dried! The material on the top side is made of a strong, dirt-repellent material that does not/minimally fade in washing.
Again, please note: These pads are specially made to your preference, so the delivery time is approximately 35 working days.
