spinal protection
We designed Flypad with wings to create a spine gutter. Flypad’s wings set your horse’s spine free. Now all horses can benefit from the relief of weight on their spine while you stay comfortable and closely connected to your horse.
Comfort and connection
Stay closely connected.
Ride as one with your horse, secure and in comfort. The FlyPad wings are designed to provide comfort precicely where needed while leaving the rest of the pad free to maximise connection with your horse.
Designed and hand made in Italy and France.
A cut that lengthens the leg and facilitates the vertical alignment of the rider.

Caution
Avoid riding in jeans with rivets or pants with rough or rigid surfaces. Friction on the suede can lead to traces of wear. These traces of wear cannot constitute a reason for complaint.
Care
- Before its first use, waterproof the suede of your Flypad with a spray that will prevent the water from altering its color.
- To clean the Flypad: nothing could be simpler. Dust it with a soft brush and pass a suede gum over any stains.
- Store away from moisture and direct sunlight.
- For ultimate storage: store it with the Cocoon cover. Cocoon also allows you to ride with your Flypad in case of rain!

Really the perfect pad for human and horse. It has it all, beautiful colours, great construction fot the horse, is antislip, sits like a sofa, has a handle, resonable price. So happy with it!
A little strage that it doesn’t come already impregnated. Not sure what are all all those rings supposed be for.
Also the website did not state if suede is real or imitation. It is real suede. It would be great if it was vegan.
