  • ✓ Classic Acavallo gel — absorbs impact and prevents saddle movement in all directions
  • ✓ Cut-out faux sheepskin edges cushion pressure points and prevent friction where it matters most
  • ✓ Non-slip gel keeps the saddle firmly in place through every movement

The pony non-slip gel flat with Classic design and cut-out sheepskin offers excellent contact with the saddle, allowing the skin to breathe while riding.
Thanks to the shaped gel, the item is thicker than a traditional pad, providing an effective combination of non-slip and cushioning. The Acavallo Classic gel is hypoallergenic, non-toxic and does not cause unwanted reactions in contact with the skin, allowing the direct use. Furthermore, the gel can be easily cut and adapted to any type of saddle.
A significant advantage of this gel is its ability to prevent unwanted movement of the saddle in all directions: forward, backward and sideways. The gel is able to compensate for small imperfections in the horse's back, making it also suitable for backs with more rounded conformations.
The central part has a reduced thickness to better adapt to the horse's withers and back, allowing a large space between the saddle and the gel for constant air circulation.
The Acavallo sheepskin used in the gel edge is a hypoallergenic, soft and delicate natural material, designed to prevent chafing, abrasions and blisters.
Acavallo sheepskin has a very high density of fibres per square centimetre, making it the best natural emollient padding. Furthermore, the sheepskin acts as a 100% insulator, avoiding the emission of electrostatic charges in contact with the horse's skin. Another essential characteristic of this material is its ability to absorb sweat and release it to the outside air seven times faster than synthetic materials.

The real Acavallo sheepskin edge not only gives a touch of elegance to the compensator, but the properties of the material: natural, hypoallergenic, soft and delicate, are able to prevent chafing, abrasions and blisters. The wool is selected by Acavallo for the high density of fibres per square centimetre, in order to create the best possible natural emollient padding. Furthermore, sheepskin does not emit electrostatic charges if the pad rubs with the horse's skin, thus acting as a 100% insulator. Sheepskin immediately absorbs sweat and releases it to the outside air seven times faster than synthetic materials.

  • Machine washable at low temperature (max 30°C)
  • Do not use aggressive detergents
  • Do not tumble dry
  • Do not expose to direct heat or strong sunlight
  • Let it dry naturally, flat

Gel & Sheepskin Technology

Acavallo's non-slip gel combined with genuine sheepskin lining on the underside. The sheepskin sits against the horse's back for softness and breathability, while the gel sits against the saddle for grip and shock absorption.

What It Solves

Saddle slip combined with skin sensitivity, chafing, and temperature regulation. Sheepskin is naturally hypoallergenic, wicks moisture away from the skin, and provides a soft cushion that prevents rubbing — particularly beneficial for horses with thin skin or those prone to pressure sores.

Best For

Competition horses needing both grip and comfort. Horses with sensitive or thin skin. Riders wanting a premium, luxurious feel. Available in full and cut-out configurations, in sizes from pony through large.
