Described as the most stylish saddle pad LeMieux have ever produced. The Loire collection exudes sophistication and class - showing style without showing off! Woven Satin fabric gives a beautiful sheen to these pads whilst still benefitting from the wonderfully soft and breathable Bamboo lining. The 100% natural Bamboo material controls heat & sweat and wicks very efficiently. The whole pad benefits from a new extensively researched soft friction-free suede binding which is specially fabricated to smoothly contour the edges. This new technique helps retain the perfect saddle pad shape and binding profile. The textured pu leather girth protection area is complimented by an embossed logo and carries the usual signature LeMieux lower girth strap with its inner locking loops. The piece de resistance of the Loire Close Contact Square is its unique metal badge on a leather mount in the lower back corner.
