Developed for a barn fire survivor.
The first Calmatech Saddle Pad was developed as a custom pad for an eventing horse that was in a barn fire. The horse’s back was burned so badly he could not be saddled. After extensive research on the different medical materials, we made a pad with a type of fabric called “medical fleece” the same materials used in hospitals to treat bed sores on people. Our saddle pad not only solved the problem but this horse started competing again.
A Performance Saddle Pad for Every Horse & Rider.
The saddle pad you choose is just as important as your actual saddle. It’s part of that key connection between you and your horse. It’s an investment in the quality of your ride. Our innovative saddle pads are designed and made in Montreal with ethical manufacturing practices for your horse’s comfort and performance.

I LOVE my Calmatech dressage pad and I’m pretty sure my horse would say the same thing. After a schooling session, there don’t seem to be any indications that there were uneven pressure points. I was worried about using it for everyday work with my horse’s dusty winter coat; however, it doesn’t seem to collect the dirt. Thank you Ecogold!!!

Absolutely love my calmatech pad! I have a TB with a very picky back and I noticed a difference in how he moved immediately with this pad. I originally was just going to use it for showing because they are very nice quality and look sharp but I ended up buying a second one to use for schooling. It’s my go to saddle pad. Also for both of pads being white they are not super hard to keep clean. I put mine in the washer on delicate and then air dry and it’s good to go.

I am an equine Bodyworker and the Ecogold collection is one that I regularly recommend to all my clients! The Calmatech Dressage pad is my personal favorite. I have many dressage clients who use this pad and it makes a considerable difference to the owner, and it also makes a large difference in the tension I feel over the back! (And we want to make sure that those vertebrae stay mobile and pain free!) I recommend the products in general to everyone, but I absolutely LOVE the Calmatech line. All of the really sensitive horses I work on LOVE these!

Outstanding! I can’t believe the difference in my horses in one ride. Particularly my older boy who has not enjoyed lifting his back up into collected works- he is just light snd beautiful after only a few days. He’s also very thin skinned snd reacts to every single thing- but not these pads!!!

Ecogold Calmatech is THE saddlepad. Its the one you use every ride. The one that lasts use after use, wash after wash, year after year. Mine is 9 years old, and it still looks amazing. It is white, and I still use it every ride. The Calmatech pad is the best for your horses back, it its still under the saddle, does not bunch, and wicks away sweat. I want the best for my mare, and that is the Calmatech Ecogold pad.

I bought this pad for shows because my thoroughbred is super sensitive skinned and sensitive backed and love it! I was a little worried about it being too hot and getting really sweaty in the Texas heat, but it’s amazing how dry it stays! This may be my favorite line of ecogold pads! I want one for every phase!
