Half Pads: Ogilvy Memory Foam Half Pad

The popularity of Ogilvy pads has spread like wildfire.  Almost every one that has had experience with them has given a positive review.  I'm not one to jump on the "everyone has one" band wagon, but it's hard not to get high on them when so many have fallen in love.  Seriously, these things are like The Beatles of the horse world!



Ogilvy Memory Foam Half Pad
$199-$275

Pros:
1. Anti-slip
2. V-shaped for protecting withers and back
3. Breathable and moisture wicking
4. Distributes pressure
5.Anti-friction
6. Anti microbial and anti-bacterial
7. Dense air foam inserts that can be added to it as front or rear risers
8. Stain resistant
9. Is supposed to help the rider's back also
10. Custom colors, piping, and embroidery (Even my boring, traditionalist dressage side finds this somewhat appealing)
11. Comes in 1" and 1 1/4" thickness (they have the thinner Gummy Half Pad if you don't like the bulge).
12. The cover is removable for washing.
13. You can order just the covers if your's wears out or want to be able to change the look without buying a whole new pad!
