🐴🪶 GOOD MEDICINE – HAND TO HORSE WESTERN SADDLE PAD 🪶🐴
A saddle pad with a story — and some serious technology underneath it.
The Professional’s Choice Good Medicine Comfort-Fit SMx Air Ride – Hand to Horse combines a beautifully hand-woven New Zealand wool blanket top with Professional’s Choice’s proven SMx Air Ride technology.
🔥 THE PERFORMANCE
🐴 Comfort-Fit contoured design
Shaped to follow the natural curve of the horse’s spine, helping the pad sit securely in position while allowing the horse freedom of movement.
💨 SMx Air Ride™ core
The shock-absorbing core helps disperse impact and improve comfort beneath the saddle, while its open construction allows air to circulate against the horse’s back.
❄️ Airflow & cooling
The Air Ride material is based on technology used in protective equipment for human athletes — combining impact absorption with airflow to help reduce heat build-up and fatigue.
🤠 Improved saddle fit
The combination of the contoured profile and Air Ride core helps create a comfortable interface between horse, pad and saddle.
🧵 Hand-woven New Zealand wool top
A premium, traditional Western look that makes every Hand to Horse pad something special.
🪶 Leather-reinforced spine & wither
Extra reinforcement in the areas that take the most wear, while maintaining the pad’s contoured shape.
🐎 Fleece lining
Soft against the horse with moisture-management properties for added comfort.
And then there’s the story behind that incredible design…
🪶 THE LEGEND OF HAND TO HORSE
The imagery used in Hand to Horse draws upon Native American symbolism associated with the horse, honour, courage and the bond between horse and rider.

🪶 THE FEATHER
Represents honour and spiritual connection, reflecting the special place of the horse within the imagery that inspired the collection.
