Described as the most stylish saddle pad LeMieux has ever produced, the Loire Collection exudes sophistication and style while offering technical advances.Woven Loire satin top benefits from a wonderfully soft and breathable natural bamboo blend lining. High wither shape reduces pressure and improves the fit of your saddle. The elastic saddle straps are slimmer at the point where they connect to the D-ring, leaving room for additional accessories.The entire deck benefits from an extensively researched, soft, friction-free binding specially made to smoothly contour the edges. This new technique helps maintain the saddle pad's perfect shape and binding profile.The textured faux leather girth protector area is complemented by an embossed logo and carries the usual, signature LeMieux lower girth strap with its inner girth loops.A unique metal badge with LeMieux logo on a leather mount in the lower back corner provides a luxurious finishing touch.
