The inserts can be used for individual padding and thus to minimise the pressure and make any necessary corrections. They are very hardwearing, sweat-resistant and do not fatigue even when used over long periods of time. There is a choice of composite foam or poly felt as the padding fabric for most of the pads. Each set is specifically designed for the particular pad. Where composite foam inserts are used, they must be placed so that the rounded edge points towards the horse.
