I have a stocky quarter horse who has been having an issue with dry spots and was developing white hairs. Her hind end is uphill, leaving a gap under her saddle (she's not swaybacked) and I was also having problems with the saddle and pad slipping because she's so stocky. After trying several pads I tried this one and LOVE it!! No more dry spots!! She had a nice even sweat pattern. I'm so happy that she's finally comfortable!!!

Reinsman Original Navajo Swayback Pad 30x30 from illinois
my horse has QH withers but an even wider behind, so have had difficulty finding a pad that will not slide into the hollow of his back. This pad was the answer. It has worked amazingly, and I tried A LOT of pads. Thanks.

Reinsman Original Navajo Swayback Pad 30x30 from Illinois
This pad seems a little stiff at first, but has made my horse, who has a very difficult to fit back, very happy. Need to make sure you are cinched up snugly.

I borrowed one of these pads from a friend once, and fell in love. My horse isn't swaybacked, but my saddle doesn't fit her very well at all. I this pad lifts the saddle in just the right spot, so now she sweats evenly and is comfortable moving in it. The old design had the withers cut out, and kind of made it slip backwards sometimes. I like that nowadays it has high withers, to take the pressure off the withers but eliminating that problem. I love the colors. I never was a fan of that tacky-too stuff, however, though it rarely causes problems. Think I'll hunt down one with the different bottom...

Love this pad and so does my horse. My horse is older and has high withers that causes a concave in his back. Before, my saddle made indentures on these areas. Im using this new pad and it has completely stopped that. I rode for about 3 hours yesterday and it was awesome. The pad is alittle pricey but for me and my horse it was worth every dollar!!!!!

I got this for my Husbands horse before he even came to our barn. When we went to fit the horse's saddle we discovered not only was he high withered, but slightly sway backed. Thought I was going to have to take back the saddle, but put this pad on and the saddle was perfect! No issues with dry spots and the horse is always happy before, during & after a ride. Our riding instructor was amazed by how well this pad worked.

I have been using this pad for over a year on different horses and I love it! This pad has solved many different saddle issues for many different types of backs. Now I need 2 because I love it so much!

This pad clearly is not just for a high withered horse, it is a SWAYBACK pad. Not listed in title. Very disappointed. The center of the pad is much thicker than the outer edges. The Weaver Smart Cinch I received was not the one pictured either.

I have been a breeder,trainer, instructer, and showed for 30 + years. Over all the years I've tried about every type of blanket on the market. Nothing comes anywhere near meeting every requirement I had for every discipline of riding I and my students rode. Out of all of the countless horses, mine or clients, I have worked with, I have only had one that acted up when trying to use a Reinsman pad on them, and that horse turned out to be allergic to the material used on the bottom of the pad. So I respectfully suggest to the person above me who is having so much trouble with her horse and this pad, to check with your vet and see if your horse may be having some kind of allergy to the bottom material of this pad as well. I HIGHLY recommend this pad to everyone. I am disabled now and only have one horse which I trail ride and even on steep trails have not had one experience where the saddle and pad slid at all. It is the perfect pad to keep people like me safe on a ride and free of worry so I can enjoy my ride.

I purchased this pad in a last ditch effort to find a saddle/pad combo that would fit my horse and stop the dry spots we kept battling. This pad worked! After many rides, still no dry spots and my horse is free in the shoulders. After 1 year the pad still looks new, no wear and tear.
My only complaint would have to be the material used for the edges. It is rough and if you have a short backed horse it can rub on there hip area.

I've used Tacky Too pads for years now and they have been extremely durable and performed exactly as they are advertised too. I've never had any problems with them and love the way they keep the saddle from rolling.

This is the best pad ever, quality, fit, size, duable. I ride hoses all day every day, even in this hot summer heat and this pad keeps the heat off the horse and dries fast. Have had hundreds of pads and none as good as this one, I'm getting one for every horse I have all dozen of them because this pad fits every back. Can't say enough good about REINSMAN PRODUCTS !

Would NOT recommend - stiff pad & the non-slip material DOES VERY MUCH Pull hair. I have an extremely well broke horse that was bucking in the stall during saddling - didn't improve over several attempts of use w/ this pad
