Has any one had experience of shetland pads and slipping about? Ours is English leather but almost spongy/ felt material underneath. Has only been used with a saddle cloth underneath any suggestions/recommendations please?

Get a pro lite saddle stay pad to put under it then it shouldnt slip . They are around £22 from robinsons . Ours is a shetland show tack suede one that dosnt move normally but does need a pro lite pad when the pony is moulting  |

It should do as it is really grippy once it has warmed up on the pony . My saddle is suede so i dont see why it wouldnt work on yours .

With my pad, I use a limpet pad underneath at home, and then for shows a wet shammy(?) leather - we then never have any problems.

different types of shetland pads seem to sit differently. We have had a variety and find the Zoe Snape seems to stay still with a sheepskin underneath and a non slip girth.

I found that on our pad it was the numnah/saddle cloth that was making it slip! As soon as we took it away the saddle stayed in place. Just meant that the underside of pad got dirty!

hi,i had this problem with ours,but the courtlea numnah lady is making a fab numnah that is like a fine mesh materail with a rolled edge or without,looks and works fantastic,not exspensive either and made to fit your pad so looks very neat..........
