Merino+ Loire Classic Close Contact Square

Combining style and function, the Merino+ Loire Classic Close Contact Square offers the luxury expected from the Loire collection, with the comfort and pressure relief of our technical Merino+ blend, designed to fit forward-cut jumping saddles.

Our iconic Close Contact pads are expertly designed jumping saddle pads with a high wither cut, elasticated D-ring tabs and swept-back profile.

Delivering the look and security of a half pad without added bulk under the saddle, Merino+ rolls keep the saddle stable in style while reducing pressure. Our Merino+ blend combines natural Merino+ with technical fibres for style with performance.

Beautiful woven Loire satin fabric pairs with our signature soft, breathable and friction-free bamboo lining. The natural bamboo blend lining material controls heat and efficiently wicks sweat to keep your horse cool.

The whole pad benefits from an extensively researched friction-free suede-effect binding, which is specially fabricated to smoothly contour the edges. This new technique helps retain the perfect saddle pad shape and binding profile.

The durable textured PU leather girth protection area protects the pad from the rider’s boot, with our signature LeMieux inner girth strap channels ensuring a precision fit.

The unique embossed metal LeMieux logo badge on a leather mount in the lower back corner is a stylish finishing touch.
