Horse-riding should be a comfortable experience, for the rider and the horse both. Using numnahs can go a long way in ensuring comfort for both the parties. Dressage numnahs are pads that are placed right under the saddle. Made up of either wool, lambskin or other padding options, numnahs perform a variety of functions. They keep the saddle clean, provide cushioning to the rider and protect the horse’s back against friction and moisture. If your horse has a relatively sensitive skin, using numnah becomes imperative for you. Here are a couple of tips to keep in mind when you shop for your dressage numnah:
1. Keep the Purpose Clear in Mind Dressage numnahs are available in different kinds of materials, sizes, thickness, etc. It’s important to bear in mind the exact purpose that you’re buying the dressage numnah for. For example, the need for padding may differ in intensity from horse to horse. Some horses may need more padding than others. In such a case, it wouldn’t make sense for you to opt for a thin numnah.
2. Choose According to Season If you’re looking to use dressage numnah for the hot months of summer, you’ll need to pick something that efficiently absorbs much sweat and promotes sufficient air circulation to keep your horse cool during the riding sessions. For the hot summer time, go with numnahs that are made up of wool or cotton. Wool is great at absorbing moisture and permitting air penetration through its fibres. Cotton too is the kind of fabric that can effectively absorb water and help the air circulate through. You might want to steer clear of sheepskin for the summers as it’s not particularly great at water absorption. Even when you’re selecting the colour of the dressage numnah, you can think about what colour would work the best for the given season. We do know that lighter colours reflect light and darker colours absorb light. Going with the right kind of numnah colour can make some difference in how much heat is absorbed by the numnah. It may not be a huge difference, especially if the saddle pad over the numnah covers up most of its surface, but it will be a positive difference nevertheless. A good reason to try and use lighter colour numnahs for the summer season.

3. Think About the Practical Aspects Whatever dressage numnah you decide to buy, remember that you’re not buying it for just single time use. It is not about a single year or a single season. This is a product that you should ideally be able to use for at least a couple of years or seasons. Buying numnahs from a reputed provider would ensure that you get complete value in return for your investment. Another thing to consider about buying a dressage numnah is how easy and convenient is its maintenance. Can it withstand rough usage? Can it be cleaned and washed easily?
