Imperial Riding Symbol Dressage Saddle Pad
Use this size guide to find the correct size for Imperial Riding saddle pads. Imperial Riding offers saddle pads in three shapes — Dressage, General Purpose, and General Purpose Jump — each available in Shetland, Pony, Cob and Full sizes.
How to measure: the measurements below describe the saddle pad itself, not the horse. Compare against your current best-fitting saddle pad, or measure your saddle from pommel to cantle to estimate the right size.
- A — height at the front (withers edge)
- B — height at the back
- C — length along the spine (centre of pad)
- D — length at the bottom edge (GP Jump shape only)

This size chart is a guideline. Saddle pads should extend 2–3 cm beyond the edges of your saddle on all sides. If your horse is between sizes, size up — a slightly oversized pad can be positioned further forward, but an undersized pad cannot fully cover the saddle panel.
