Showman Saddle Blanket

While this wool blanket offers good protection, it is designed primarily as a top blanket. For most riding disciplines, you will want to layer it over a contoured felt or foam saddle pad to ensure adequate shock absorption and spinal clearance.

This blanket measures 36 inches by 34 inches. This is a standard size that provides ample coverage for most Western saddles.

To maintain the integrity of the wool and the vibrancy of the Navajo pattern, it is best to brush off loose dirt and hair regularly with a stiff-bristle brush. If a deeper clean is needed, spot clean with a damp cloth or consult a professional cleaner specializing in wool equestrian gear.

The blanket is crafted with durable materials intended for show ring use, but like any dyed wool product, it should be kept out of direct, prolonged sunlight when not in use to prevent fading. Avoid getting the blanket soaked, as excessive moisture can cause dye transfer.

While the vibrant Navajo design is perfect for the show ring, the durable wool construction makes it sturdy enough for daily training sessions as well. Just keep in mind that consistent daily use will accelerate wear compared to occasional show use.
