“The saddle pad is what connects the horse to the rider and allows them to become one.”  

– Patricia Da Silva, president 

 

For over 30 years, Ecogold saddle pads have been revolutionizing equestrian gear with one clear mission: to enhance your horse’s safety, comfort, and performance. Driven by innovation, Ecogold sets the standard in creating high-quality English and Western saddle pads that riders trust.

OUR STORY

Founded by John Da Silva, a textile engineer with expertise in high-performance fabrics, Ecogold introduced groundbreaking designs to the equestrian world. John’s creation of the cross-country saddle pad shape minimized heat retention and improved the comfort of eventing horses during competition, earning a reputation for excellence in horse tack innovation.

A family business

Today, Ecogold is led by John’s daughter, Patricia Da Silva, who continues the family’s dedication to horse welfare and design excellence. Every Ecogold saddle pad reflects a commitment to ethical and sustainable practices, offering riders a trusted choice for their equine partners.
