Product Description

Christ Lammfelle Half Pad with Shims

Christ Lammfelle half pad with shims boasts a 100% lambskin base with 30mm (1.18 inches) of unbleached wool.  The wool parts for an optimal fit where the horse’s spine connects with the half pad. The top of the pad consists of  Christ Lammfelle special saddle cloth fabric. Includes shim pockets for removable shims.

• Removable shims can raise front or back of half pad by 15mm (.59in)
  • ThinLine shims also work.
• Machine washable with a lambskin detergent (remove shims first)
• Dryer safe – max 104 degrees
• Made in Germany
• Christ pad materials are never bleached

You can use any half pad shims with this half pad. We include some basic shims (shaped carpet padding). If you want something more awesome than carpet padding (which actually works really well), you should try out the ThinLine shims.

Looking for Christ Half Pads without the shims? We offer the Christ half pad with or without the sheepskin trim.

Christ Lammfelle of Germany, Making Top Quality Sheepskin Saddle Pads

Christ Pads are skillfully crafted, high-quality saddle pads made of medical lambskin and hardwearing twill.  Lammfelle makes their saddle pads in Germany. The wool used on Christ saddle pads is never bleached and the entire Christ saddle pad can be thrown in the washing machine on gentle cycle, then dried on low in the dryer – try that with your Chinese made fleece saddle pad and you will find yourself having to buy a new one!

Due to its design, the Christ Lammfelle half pad with shims sits directly on your horses back.

No need for another pad if your saddle has the appropriate sweat flap. We suggest you use a lightweight pad on the top of this half pad if your saddle does not have a sweat flap or fits in a way that a second pad on the top of this Christ saddle pad would make sense.

When it comes to quality, Christ lambskin saddle pads are the best eventing saddle pads.
