Intrepid International Best Friend Western Style Bareback Pad

Love this bareback pad. Easy to use and fits my big draft cross perfectly! I got the Western on because I wanted the bigger pad. The pockets are perfect for phones, etc.

I like riding bareback but it gets slippery especially on my hilly property. I did my research and after reading all the reviews on different pads, this one got my attention. I stick to this pad like a saddle. It fits my 16.1 hh barrel of an appendix QH mare and my 15hh paint! No slipping or sliding on me or the horse!

We have a small pony. She's to big to be a minature but to small to be considered an average pony size. She is 366lbs. 9.2 hands high. The girth belt is at its highest setting on her at this size. We will probably have to switch the girth belt out for a smaller one so it will fit her. Very nice quality! Will update this review after we have used it for a while. I thought it came with foot stirrups, but it does not. Functional saddle as my kids love riding bareback but this will be more comfortable for the horse and them now! A regular saddle is just too heavy for her.

Not worth the money

Daughter loves this pad!!! It's great!

I can’t say enough good things about this pad!! It stays in place. It is easy to use. Easy to clean. It has a great price point!!! I looked a several pads and this has the best price. It fit horses perfectly. It’s performance when you ride is great!! It has rubber backing so no slipping back while you ride. It has a nice cinch. I have had other bareback pads and nothing compares to this pad!! It’s made well and not cheap material. I would suggest not to use a bareback pad if you want to hold on to balance yourself to stay on horse, that’s the purpose of a saddle.
