Equestrian Stockholm Satin Dressage Saddle Pad - Chestnut
How to Choose the Right Size Equestrian Stockholm Dressage Saddle Pad
Equestrian Stockholm dressage saddle pads come in three sizes: Cob, Full, and Extra Full. The right size depends on your saddle length — your pad should sit slightly longer than the saddle flap on both sides, without bunching under the girth straps or slipping backwards during work.
Here's a quick guide based on saddle seat size:
- Extra Full — fits saddles from 18" and up. This is the go-to for longer-flapped dressage saddles and riders who prefer extra coverage.
- Full — fits saddles from 16" to 17.5". The most popular size and suits the majority of standard dressage saddles.
- Cob — fits saddles 15" and smaller. Ideal for cob-type horses or smaller ponies in dressage-style saddles.
If you're between sizes, we'd generally recommend going up. A slightly larger pad sits better than one that's too small and shifts during your ride.
This page covers Dressage saddle pad sizing. If you ride in a GP, jumping, or event saddle, head to our Equestrian Stockholm Jump Saddle Pad Size Chart instead — the shape and measurements are different.

Sizing Tips
Equestrian Stockholm dressage pads have a contoured, close-fitting cut designed specifically for dressage saddle flaps. A few things worth knowing:
- The measurements above are flat measurements — the pad will sit slightly differently once shaped around your saddle.
- Equestrian Stockholm pads hold their shape well after washing, so the size you start with is the size you'll keep.
- If you're using a half pad underneath, you may want to go up a size to accommodate the extra bulk.

The size of your saddle pad should be based on the length of your saddle, and should always be slightly longer than the saddle.
