MATTES uses high quality cotton/polyester blend quilted fabric. Special lustrous fibers are woven into the fabric to give a striking look while the thick layer of padding makes the quilted pattern really stand out. Shock-absorbing natural lambskin padding and front trim provides comfort and breathability for your horse.
Our SPINEFREE® design reliably prevents any pressure around the withers and spine.
The core of the half-pad is made of two layers: POLY-FLEX® (a deep-needled polyester felt) is used to maintain the shape and spread the pressure, while polyester wadding provides padding. We completely avoid foam, neoprene or gel, making the whole pad breathable.
This half-pad has the CORRECTION® with two pockets; we supply three 5 mm-thick felt shims (POLY-FLEX®) for each pocket, offering the same pressure relief as a good quality new saddle, padded with wool and horsehair. MATTES developed the CORRECTION® System to allow flexible and easy changes to saddle fit by up to 30 mm: to easily compensate for the rapid physical development of young horses in training, for horses that have been out of work for some time, or for trained horses which change shape a lot during the competition season, whenever quick alterations are needed. Simply add extra shims, or just as importantly, remove them, to suit the horse’s changing shape.
Available in AP/Jump and Dressage styles, in black and white.
Sizes: M (for saddles 17″-17.5″), L (saddles 17.5″-18″), XL (saddles 18.5″-19″)

A gentle training tool with a bit of extra help. When a contact is taken, the Tranz Angled Lozenge rolls down onto the centre of the tongue, the “sweet spot,” enhancing feel and responsiveness, thus a higher level of communication through the rein is achieved. The arms are slightly curved and of an oval profile. This oval design takes up less room between the tongue and upper palate, whilst offering a similar weight bearing surface from the pony’s perspective as thicker, circular mouthpieces.

Does your pony hollow and poke his nose? This will help obtain a rounder outline. All of the pony cheeks are scaled down in proportion with the neat pony mouthpieces.
This combination of Baucher cheek and NS Tranz mouthpiece usually helps the rider to achieve and maintain a rounder and more correct outline. If your pony is constantly resisting, strung out or coming above the bit the usual response to the NS Tranz Baucher is a head lowering action and softer feel through the rein. This design often proves beneficial for the over sensitive mouth. Highly recommended where help is needed for straightness and directional control.

Need more control than an ordinary snaffle? The Tranz Beval is often sourced for ponies that are strung out or poke their nose. Especially useful for the child or novice rider who does not possess either the technique or strength in the leg to achieve and maintain a correct round outline. Also helps with turning and downwards transitions. Popular in the show ring.

Offers extra control and helps with outline and turning. The Neue Schule Butterfly Pelham is often sourced when extra control is needed. Helps with outline, turning and lightens the forehand. The butterfly cheeks are excellent for directional control; straightness and turning, hence beneficial for show jumping etc. Highly recommended for children who do not always support their inside rein as the mouthpiece will not slide across to the inside. Popular in the show ring employing two reins or split reins.

Need to promote a true consistent contact or have problems with lips rubbing?
If your pony is tentative into the contact (inconsistent), the NS Tranz Eggbutt offers the stability within the mouth needed to boost the pony’s confidence encouraging it to seek the bit, taking the rein forwards. Very beneficial for short tense necks and excellent for directional control. Unlike traditional Eggbutt designs, combining this NS cheek and NS Tranz mouthpiece, feel and response is not lost and the pony is far less likely to lean and fix against the hand. This neat lightweight bit is popular as a snaffle under saddle or for showing in hand.

Reinforces the turning aid and helps with straightness and direction.
Excellent for directional control and tight turns during faster work as the mouthpiece will not slide across the mouth when turning. It is also safer for young ponies, especially when introducing to road work, as it should not pull through the mouth in a panic situation. Highly beneficial for children or novice riders who may not be sufficiently experienced in supporting their inside rein.

The NS Tranz Universal offers control without discomfort or severity. It is brilliant for faster work such as jumping as you can turn much more easily. The Universal also helps to eliminate the head toss when asking for a downward transition, or shortening in between fences. If you need to upgrade from a snaffle, it is highly recommended as it offers varying degrees of control. Also an excellent training tool prior to introducing the doubles for employing two reins and a curb strap. All of the pony cheeks are scaled down in proportion with the neat pony mouthpieces. There are four rein options including the curb strap and Pelham roundings.
