Reviews

This is the first product I bought from WINDEREN. It’s perfect. I heard about it in a comment from someone on Facebook so thought I’d give it a try. My horse loves it, and so do I. In fact, I loved it so much that I explored, other products from WINDEREN, and have now bought a bit, which is amazing, two pairs of stirrups, and saddle pads. :-)

Amazing product, which improved my horses way of going tremendously. We have correctly fitted Childeric dressage saddle, but still there was room for improvement. Size 17" is perfect an accurate for our 17" saddle. Highly recommended - worth every penny.

My horse and I love this bit. My horse has always been mouthy, opening her mouth and turning her head at times, but now she is on the bit and moving forward. Huge difference. The customer support was also amazing. I chose this bit but asked the company for feedback. They accepted videos and also picked this bit for my horse without knowing it was the one I had picked. That validated my decision. Excellent product. Excellent company!

Will be expanding my parts to the bit system. Gel mouth pieces seem harder wearing than other long standing brands plastic composite materials! Love the ability to change cheek pieces or mouth piece. Especially if you ride more than one discipline or have several horses

As promised, completely indestructible. Has been the perfect match for a horse who has a lot of anxiety about wearing a bit. She’s comfortable with this and that’s a statement in itself!

Love this, got this one for my young horse but my older horse actually really likes it for quiet schooling at home. I have this, the flexi and the fixed with a port one too now. She loves them all, we just change it up or down depending on our activity

Amazing customer support. I was really nervous about switching over to their bits. Over a period of three months on and off I would chat with the company online about their bits. They reviewed videos of my horse under saddle and gave me their opinion which was priceless. My horse loves her bit!

Really nice rug which look good both in daily training and at shows. Super quality - Even better than expected.

My equine dentist recommended I try my horse in a mullen mouth bit. He had been wearing his molars down with the stainless steel bit I had been using. He is also a very sensitive horse. By chance my online search landed on the Winderen bits and I am so glad I found them. My horse is so happy with this bit and he is clearly far more comfortable now.

Easy to change and costs less overall if have multiple bits using this system.

The mouthpiece does indeed appear to be indestructible. This is the only Liverpool bit with a flexible mouthpiece. My horse seems to like it. Seems well made.

A very versatile item for use with our two horses. It makes up for small differences in body bulid and let us use the same saddle comfortly on both our horses :)

I am obsessed with this pad — I’ve never had such a perfect thickness with such impressive material. With a custom made saddle for my wide shouldered gelding, this pad adds shock absorbency without negatively affecting the integrity of the custom cut by being too thick or bulky in the wrong places. Love it!

My favourite wraps ! I have multiple sets of these, the fabric is brilliant and does exactly as it’s designed to do, and they keep their shape even after many washes !

Best half pad we have used on our horses. Tried 5 other leading brands and Winderen is the best. The horses are so much happier softening onto the bit and lifting their backs.

This sheet is beautiful, functional, and sturdy. It fits my stud’s chest really well - no chafing or bunching.

Outstanding customer service. And got my bit in four days- they do not play around with shipping.

I AM BEYOND PLEASED! I’ve recommended them to several people. My boy is responsive and gives to the bit and HAS STOPPED HIS INCESSANT CHEWING. I would have saved so much money if I had just bought a Windren lol

Wow! Quality is the best! Logo print made perfect! Really worth every penny!

I am blown away with these stirrups. I am still getting used to them but already my leg is quieter, aids are cleared, and my foot position over the stirrup is way more balanced. I am so glad I invested in these stirrups.

Absolutely beautiful products, I want one in every colour. This is my second saddle pad I have the jump and the dressage. I love the fact it’s natural felt and 100% embossed cotton, washes excellent keeps its shape everytime.

Another fantastic Winderen product. I got these as my young horse had random and very bad mud fever this summer from all the rain, long wet grass and fly bites. 9 weeks I have been trying to fix him and nothing has been working. I got these instead of the stable wraps because he has small legs, i just used these over night and we have seen a massive improvement, we used them every night and in 2 weeks his legs are almost clear. I also switched to simple aloe vera during the day but thats all I changed. So not quite what they are meant for but they did the job. They are very soft too and lovely to use. #lovesilverions

SUPER soft and flexible bit which is exactly what I wanted for my green mare. I was worried the thickness of it might bother her, but it does not - she goes very well in it. The cheekpieces are well made and I love that they can be swapped out.

These were a game changer for me. Two bad knees, one overdue for replacement. The Winderen stirrups are amazing. Just enough give to keep me comfortable and feeling secure. Thank you so much !

These are wonderful. I read the comments and decided to try them and I LOVE them. I’m going to get another pair for my other saddle. Great product !

These were recommended by a friend who rides with the same trainer. She has knee problems and I have a bad ankle. I told her I would consider them when I replaced my current stirrups that pivot. Not a month later one broke, so my timeline for replacing moved up. From the first ride, I could feel the increased stability of my entire leg. Thank you- Kim

The quality of these wraps is the best I’ve used. Winderen has a great product with exceptional material. I have switched to Winderen wraps for my competition horse.

I have three of these in black, silver and blue. An amazing set of stirrups that are comfortable for Dressage. I am excited to get a red pair to go with my red Winderen saddle pad.

I already have the comfort jump which is fantastic so wanted the comfort dressage too. I was using riser pads as both saddles are a bit wide for the horse but with comfort pads they fit really well. Horse is noticeably more relaxed using them and saddles feel so secure. Well worth the money for us.

Nice saddle pad. Beautifully made. Fits and wears well. Have received some compliments on it.

This is the best bit for my super sensitive OTTB. I recommend it to everyone.

Not only is my horse happy and the indentations correcting themselves from his back it helped me with my posting, I am an amateur

After a lengthy recovery after a lag injury we were looking for a “good” pad but we got something way more - this is a GREAT piece of equipment more people should have in their toolkit. Thank you SO much also for the help picking the right size.

Super pleased with my purchase! I have a young and very sensitive young horse. She is in the process of having adult teeth come in and has been very sensitive and reactive to metal bits. After trying the super flexi mouth piece, she immediately took to the bit and I have been able to have a great feel/contact while riding. The mouth piece is also super durable and has not at all been affected by any chewing. Overall, this will definitely be a go to bit of mine moving forward!

wonderful bit! so very pleased. I also love the fact that the cheek pieces and bit are interchangeable! sometimes you want just a little change and this ingenuity allows those small changes! i will be back for more

Love the gel material and the option to change mouth pieces!!

Beautiful saddle pad, fits perfectly and looks & feels real quality- I will definitely be purchasing more

Extremely fast and hassle free shipping and delivery! I am impressed :)

I purchased the Pelham system to use with my already purchased flexi Winderen bit. I have been impressed with not only the construction of the bit but how well my horse goes in this type of system. I highly recommend all Winderen products.

I love these saddle pads ! High quality, they look elegant and aren’t bulky on the horse. Overall great design and I would love one in every colour.

After using the winderen bandages , I can’t use anything else ! & they come up like new after every wash.

I’m so impressed with this bit! My pony was a carriage horse and started under saddle as a 12 year old. I’ve tried a variety of bits over the last year of him as a riding horse but not until the Winderen did I find one that he truly accepted. I was worried he would just blow through it with how soft it is. I was wrong! He is going lovely and actually reaches out for the bit when I tack him up. I was so impressed with the how quickly it was delivered to the states as well.

I have a very touchy mare. She is super sensitive, but very forward. This bit is the perfect happy medium for her. She absolutely loves it.

My senior Belgian Draft horse who came to me recently had some horrible torture device of a bit that came with him, covered in rust, flakey chrome pieces and dirt. I bought him a Super Flexi and added some check guards. When I introduced him to the Super Flexi Bit for the first time, he tensed right up, expecting the harsh bit that he was used to. Once he took hold of the Super Flexi, and it was in his mouth, he completely relaxed his whole body. He played with it in his mouth for a while, and I adjusted his bridle. When we set out to do some ‘ground driving’ he reacted perfectly. He was relaxed, reins were loose, and he did everything he was asked to do. The Winderen Super Flexi has been a very positive experience for my big boy. Thank you! I would like rubber bits for all my horses, but I don't see anything small enough for my smallest pony. 4 inches to 4 1/2 inches?

Snug, fits just like I thought it would- perfectly.

So pleased with this pad, at first I didnt notice anything but as the days passed my back pain reduced and I feel so much better. ( I ride several horses a day) I wont ride without this pad anymore. Great product, fast delivery.

Pretty fast delivery from the other side of the world!

No matter what saddle you have, just toss all those other half pads. this is the only one you need. Worth every penny.

I had a few questions and I received prompt and effective (and very friendly) responses.

I had to reach out to online support, prior to my order shipping, to be sure I had ordered the correct bit. If needed, I had the ability to change the order online. The individual I chatted with was quite helpful! She assured me that I had ordered the correct bit and that gave me peace of mind.

I have been very happy with the bit. My horse seems a bit more relaxed and a bit more forward. The quality is excellent and I do love the ability to change the cheekpiece, if needed.

My horse has improved so much since starting to use this pad. She is more relaxed and can come through herself now. She is very happy with this pad.

Great half pad! Really sits well under the saddle. My horse seems to really like it. Great product for the money.

After discovering a broken buried wolf tooth and having it removed my horse was bit sour. We wanted to train my horse to drive and needed him to accept bits again. This bit was it! he is accepting it gently and is learning the bit doesn’t have to hurt. It has been the only bit that he has taken calmly. I look forward to more progress using it.

My mare was afraid of bit contact so I bought this one. She absolutely loves it and slobbers on it every ride.

I was having some knee pain after every ride because I’ve been riding more often. After buying these the pain went away with the first ride.

With a young horse who is constantly changing, I was looking for a shimmable half pad that also provided support. I love my Winderen half pad! My horse and I are both comfortable and making adjustments to the pad when needed is a simple process.

Much better than I expected. I used a gel saddle lifter before, I can feel the difference. I also feel that it is more liberated on my horse. I hesitated a lot whether to buy it, but it was definitely worth the price.

I love all my Winderen products, and these match my saddle pad and brow band. Taking matchy matchy to a whole new level.

Very pleased with my purchase! I love that you can change out the mouth pieces and cheek pieces.

Nice bit for my sensitive horse

5 star support - really appreciate all the help I had

Love these stirrups. They are my second pair they have helped greatly with my sore knees and ankles. Thoroughly recommended

Soft and flexible, my horse is very relaxed with it

Excellent from website to delivery.

The response time for any questions is great

Hello everyone, As i already had saddle pad and was already happy, this one is just strawberry on top of my Winderen cake. Quality matching design, simply....

Not too tight but fits just right.

Amazing product. Will definitely buy again in the future

This bit works really well for my horse. He is very sensitive but takes this bit much better then other bits.

I have Winderen saddle pads, wraps, bandages, bits- and all are so well designed. Everyone there seems well informed, knowledgeable and genuinely helpful. I am really impressed with the brand.

These are my go to training wraps. Love them!

Easy assembly and excellent construction!

I love these stirrups, my feet do not move and they give a secure feeling and NO knee pain which is a huge bonus.

The pad is of the highest quality and is absolutely beautiful!

Highly recommend these wraps we use them with the Thermo Silver

I feel my beautiful horse is more comfortable and his back is more protected from my less than perfect riding using the Winderen pad.

Excellent bit, my horse seems a lot happier in it than any other I’ve tried. He heavily chews on bits and there are no signs of chewing on this bit.

My order came quickly. The bit is good quality. The gel is nice and my horse has not damaged it. Its still smooth!

She simply loves it. Perfect fit, easy to use, and practical.

Amazing product, started using this on a horse who has recovered from Kissing Spines for added protection.

Love these wraps. Another great product by Winderen

This is a very good curb. Lagar accepted it well and works very well with it. Thank you!

Can easily adjust pads so my saddle can fit 2 different horses.

The team helped me select the right size and big for my horse very happy answered all my questions.

Arrived quickly. I use Winderen bits on all my horses. Fabulous product and the horses love them.

Winderen notified me when they received my order, and the delivery was done within a week—excellent service from Europe to Los Angeles, California.

Very nice bandage, nice material, don’t slip and look smart

Very helpful in responding to all my questions

Very happy with this and the correction half pad

Very happy with this half pad. Fits perfectly and doesn’t move around under saddle. My horse seems very comfortable with the new set up

All email communications were answered quickly and professionally

Responses are fast, accurate, and reliable.

This fit well and was comfortable！

Super product love them

Very light, small pelham for sensitive horses

Very helpful!

Great fit! Beautiful!

Really relived stress in my old, achy knees. In This photos, it’s a bit hard to tell exactly what some of the colors are. I was looking for something subtle that would not attract attention in a show ring and wish I had something more matte. Otherwise, terrific.

Beautiful rug, quality material

top device

Excellent customer service and communication

Always respond!

I love this pad. It is beautiful and classic.

This pad is the best.

Best products ever! Highly recommend

Really good support for the horse back, you need support to identify the areas that need extra cushions.

D ring looks nice and was super easy to put together

Love this but. Helps with a horse that tends to be a bit crooked in the jaw

Alexsandra was very helpful in the chat box. The team was quick to respond; and I received my product.

This bit has been very well received by my thoroughbred. He is more laced and listening to it, he doesn’t “run through it” or hang on the bit. When finished, he chews and he opens his mouth to accept the bit without my having to ask him. The bit might be a touch more rigid, but the semi flex was to giving. He is responsive to this product.

Very helpful

Little pony loves it

Beautiful hat, it sit securely without feeling tight. The style and colour look great.

This is an amazing product. I noticed the difference in my horse immediately! He was softer over the back, more willing to stretch forward into the bit which created more elevation and length of stride. Gave to a friend to try out and she was in love from the first ride, she has difficulty with her back and she noticed a massive difference after riding.

This bit is a game changer! First off, ordering process was easy and delivery was within a few short days! Although replies took a time change period, response was always consistent and good. My horse is in heaven with the gel bit. She used to throw her head from pain, despite having the lightest metal double jointed bit. She started to refuse it. Now, she litterally draws her head down eager to open her mouth. Finally, the ride is spectacular. As we slowly adjust to this new system, my horse takes the bit eagerly and looks for the contact, naturally applying weight and moving onto the bit on her own. Rider horse contact is beautiful the more we work. Thank you Winderen, you are our hero for making our lives better and pain free while solving the contact puzzle!

Absolutely love this bit and technology! perfectly soft for my 3 yo he has an extremely sensitive mouth; tends to cut up his sides. I am able to use it softly and/or have stronger control when he is feeling bit forward and on jumping days!

I have ridden in several different brands of stirrups to find relief for my ankles and knees and I have finally found the right solution for what I was looking for. These stirrups are worth every penny and I will not ride a saddle without them!

I have had several weeks to try this half pad on several different horses. The first time I rode with the Winderen half pad, I noticed a difference in the quality of ride. I thought it might be my imagination but after riding several different horses, I noticed immediate improvement in all of them. The quality is excellent and the design makes adjusting the fit to each horse super easy.

Really pleased with this girth. I have a mare who is quite particular about tack and will let you know very quickly if she doesn’t like something but she has been happy and moving well in this

My feedback is simple. I am a 60 yo former athlete and long time equestrian (dressage, jumping, trails) and these irons make my legs feel like they did when I was 20.

I have chronic knee pain due to under developed knee caps so pain while riding was a fact of life. Using my Winderen stirrups, I expected no knee while riding for the first time in my life!

Great bit, very well made and my horse loves it. Several others have tried it on their horses and have ended up ordering one for themselves too!

Absolutely love this product. Fits beautifully, and provides comfort for my horse especially when jumping, but also for everyday riding. Highly recommend

Nice attractive bit which is very easy to assemble. They are lighter than I expected but still impresses me with the quality.

Could feel a positive difference from the first time I used this pad. Am VERY pleased with the quality, looks and effectiveness, the elegant wooden presentation box was well worth it. Would definitely recommend!

I have a TB with very asymmetric shoulders and have had a very hard time with saddle fit with him. In spite of constant reflocking and shimming the saddle would push off to one side and he was very unhappy, wringing his tail constantly. I was amazed by the difference using this pad, and I didn’t even get the correction version. He is softer in his back, there is no tail wringing and the saddle is much more stable. When it does shift it is minimal and it doesn’t bother him, I assume due to the shock absorption. I am so impressed and while the price is a bit eye watering, this was worth every penny for me.

5/5 Stars, these bits are a game changer! I recently got one for my sensitive saddlebred gelding and just within the short time I've had it it has made a huge difference in our under saddle work. He has been a tough horse since getting him almost 2 years ago, rushing, head throwing, unable to stop or slow down. In the recent months since changing bits to a kimblewick he improved a lot, but I knew there was something more I could do for him. When I found Winderen bits I knew that they would be a great fit for him, so I received a low port kimblehook bit. He absolutely loves it! He accepts the contact so well at all gaits now, he is super responsive to cues, I barely have to use my hands, he can do downward transitions so much better. He never throws his head, never rushes, this bit has changed our under saddle work for the better, I could not be happier. Plus he enjoys bridling now, he is eager to take the bit in his mouth, I just present it to him and he opens his mouth and happily takes it. I would recommend these to anyone with any horse, but especially to those with sensitive horses.

I love this pad. It’s so intelligently designed. The foam and felt shims are very high quality. The black stripe makes it so easy to align evenly under the saddle. The stretch fabric over the wither cutout is such a perfect solution to the problem of keeping a pad in place without pulling tight over the withers. My only advice to buyers is to size down. My saddle is 17.5, and the 18” half pad is maybe a little too generous. I could have done with the 17”. It’s very easy to add or change shims. My horse is so much more comfortable with this pad and gives me his back like never before. A barn friend already bought one for her horse, too. Very happy with this purchase.

I bought the Comfort pad for starting my new 4 year old under saddle. I knew her back muscling would be changing as she develops and I wanted to make sure she feels loose and comfortable with a rider on her. Starting her went extremely well and she seemed immediately comfortable with the weight of the rider. I think the impact cushioning is especially helpful for young horses learning to move under a rider.

Perfect fit and super comfortable! Like all Winderen products it is excellent quality!

We have used this bit before so wanted another for a pair. It is excellent

Unfortunately, the horse did not care for this mouthpiece. But as they said, no chew marks showed on it.

Great pad and sent very quickly

I love this girth so much. Five star but the initial use gave my horse a bald little spot. i tried it on two other horses, same thing. After consulting the company, it might be the change in season and longer more brittle hair. Nothing got worse, no sores and my horse is very comfortable in it. I recommend getting the size under what you think it should be. they size long.

Great help!!

Awesome bit for multiple horses!!

Well made

Super nice

Excellent when needed advice before purchasing

Amazing quality , super delivery and very helpful when needed advice before purchasing

It is well made and comes with its own hex wrench. It was easy to understand because there was an illustration explanation of the insertion direction and how to install it.

High quality

When deciding to try this bit my KWPN mare had 2 issues, low palate and super fussy with contact. From the moment I first put the bridle on and swung my leg over there was no rooting, chomping or grinding of teeth. In one ride this horses acceptance of contact went from training to the PSG level she truly is.

Nice to be able to change

BUY THESE STIRRUPS! Before them, I’d ride two fences and be in so much pain. Now I’m back to 8 jump courses. If you have knee and ankle pain that’s interfering with your ride, add to cart!

Great product. Extremely efficient delivery. Beautiful color options. Helping to keep my feet consistently in the best position for my ride

Helped my horse be more forward and free in her movement.

Great fit and helps the saddle to stabilize on my horse’s back.

Easy to take on and off, good construction, attractive.

My mare loves the bit and doesn’t want to let it go when I try to take it out of her mouth. It helps us to achieve great contact.

Horse is responding well. My previous bit had a lot of play and I think my horse is less anxious with the stability. Has also stopped her hanging on the bit.

I have a knee injury and have not experienced soreness since switching to this stirrup.

I really like the pad. Even if I have a perfect fitting saddle my horse is a bit smoother and happier under the saddle. I really like to support my horse with more comfort

Very happy with the saddle pad. Fits my thoroughbred nicely. Would definitely buy again.

Love theses stirrups. No more knee or ankle pain after jumping. I have recommended these stirrups to all of my friends.

I love these pads! I think my next investment would definitely be one of the adjustable ones. It’s the right amount of padding without taking away the close contact feeling. The suede helps the pad not slide around on the horses back under the saddle. My hoses seem to have enjoyed the pad as well.

My sensitive mare is very happy in this bit. Responsive with a stable head carriage.

I love the pink color of the pad (it’s my favorite color)! It’s an amazingly high quality product.

I ride my most sensitive horses in this super sweet bit. They all seem to LOVE it. I love that it’s show legal!

perfect support, like always a super product!

top quality, perfect choice for the horse

It lives up to the expetation

Was a game changer for my Friesian was more relaxed amd comfortable with this bit

Simply the best

Our pony as well as younghorses and a ”tricky” sensible Competition horse are now using it. They all fell comfortable and pleased with it.

Easy to handle

For Youngsters -super!

Very neat under saddle. Comfortable for horse and rider. 5 stars.

Love how sharp the black pad looks on my grey pony. Amazing quality. We always choose Winderen pads not only for their looks, but most importantly for their amazing sweat wicking properties. My pony loves them too!

My horse loves it! No more playing with his bit, drooling and putting his head down over and over again. It doesn’t seem to pinch his thick lips. Great purchase!

I am in love, and more important my young horse is in love. Within 2 days he changed his contact acceptance 100%. What I did discover, bit is not good only for horses with mega sensitive mouth, but also for horses strong on mouth. This is my 3rd Winderen product and definitely not last one.

Got this for my little 11.2 hh pony, it’s his first bit and he has taken to it really well. I got the one with the port to give him more tongue room as he only has a little mouth and I want teach him to drive, so thought it was the best option. It’s going really well so far, love these bits

This half pad is absolutely wonderful! Cushions horse’s back and rider’s back all the same! Love this!

Beautifully made, looks stunning also with the half pad. Highly recommend

Very smart horse seems comfortable.

Definitely the best drooler for my horse, the horse became sensitive and calm to control.

Gorgeous rug, super great quality & can not wait to use on my horse in the cooler months

This product is great and my horse loves it.

These pads are beautiful and excellent quality. Our whole barn uses them for schooling off property and at shows. They wash really well too.

Love Winderen nano silver saddle pad, great fit, excellent quality and has the added Bonus of the silver ! Also looking forward to purchasing some other colours from their range

Stupendous on my GP dressage horses! No “slapping” effect when sitting the trot, piaffe or passage. You really stay with your horse’s back and movement. Buying 2 more!

My upper level dressage horse is more supple, with increased suspension. The pad fits perfectly and the materials are excellent.

Absolutely stunning colours. Can’t wait to use it and see what it’s like.

This company is amazing. They assisted me with making the correct choice for my horse on support wraps. My horse had an injury and was going to rehab. Winderen even went as far to assist me with how to wrap the injury area. My vet is so happy to see a company to take the time to assist with you with their products.

We now have all 3 of our horses in Super Flexi mullen mouth Winderen bits (yes we bought 3 bits!). Two off track thoroughbreds and a hanoverian - all with sensitive mouths. These bits have been a game changer! all 3 horses are much more willing to accept contact and are MUCH lighter in the bridle. Thank you Winderen!

The change in our horse was immediate. We were using a shimmed thinline with our brand new saddle because the foam decompressed and started sitting low on his withers. I started researching half-pads that weren’t bulky down the spine or wither, and the Winderen popped up. I took a chance and purchased it. We will never use another half-pad again. Our horse no longer hesitates at the jumps, runs and bucks on the other side of a jump when he feels he wasn’t set up at the correct distance and when he’s doing long and low his nose is in the dirt. We didn’t tell our coach about the new half-pad and she noticed a difference immediately and didn’t understand what had changed overnight until I told her. I can’t stress enough that the 2nd most important piece of tack next to the saddle is your half-pad. This was worth every penny and there will be more half-pads purchased from Canada because we are letting people use it! It has also stopped back pain for my daughter when riding. She absolutely loves this half-pad and how comfortable they both are in it. It really shows!

Orders are handled very quickly. Had no problems so no real contact

I have a 18" saddle so I bought a 18" saddle pad. It seems to be too big (better too big than too short :) but... My advice is mesure the saddle and compare to the details given in the products description to choose properly. Reduction of shocks if just that good help to work out your seat. I needed the corrections to fit with a lost of weight, this made the saddle fit perfectly while the weight recovery.

This bit was an experiment for us but has worked really well, We use it for driven dressage. It would be even better if the mouthpiece was black

Top quality but quiet expensive.

Top quality but quiet expensive.

Lovely quality bandages but needs cutting to size as very long -

Great to have interchangeable mouthpieces so you can try different options

This is a beautifully made product. The metal work is great. The mouthpieces are easy to interchange, unfortunately horse didn’t care for the mouthpiece because it is so thick.

I wish this pad had a tad more length. I have a 17.5" saddle but should have ordered the 18" pad length.

The bit I received was too small for my horse. I have sent it back as instructed by you and I’m still waiting for the replacement.

Definitely feel the cushioning on their back but wish I got the thinner one as it feels like saddle slipping sometimes.

It was shipped immediately after ordering and arrived in about a week. Very quick to respond and very good.

Very friendly

Good item

High quality

Good

Very helpful and quick response.

My horse loves it. Instantly stopped pulling his head down against the bit. I should have gone a size up the design of the eggbutt makes it possible to pinch his lip if he sucks it back too far, but that is the beauty of the design you can buy the individual parts you need.

Love it!!!

My order shipped quick! Thanks for the great products!

Works well

Love this bit

Great customer support

Quality construction, attractive, easy to use.

I really love the pad. The horse I use it on is super happy with it. I also bought the correction inserts. I like them, I just wish they came with the piece that they slip into when you buy them separately. Apparently if you buy the correction set, you get an additional sleeve that makes it easier to use, but when you buy the pieces separately you do not, despite paying the same amount. Overall I really like the system.

Got pony size. Great quality. Thought it would be a little larger.

Great quality and comfort

I received a prompt response to my inquiry.

These are especially nice wraps.

This bit is the perfect answer to the happy mouth with the peanut roller. Happy mouth bits are out and winderen bits are in!

Great !!

Simply the best

Fast delivery

Works well

Super bits! Had to order a different size mouthpiece but I plan to order another set of eggbutt pieces to make another bit for my second horse.

My horse is loving this bit, soft but still provides a gd feel thru the rein.

Great

Customer support was awesome, very quick and polite.

I selected the mouthpiece that I bought by reading the recommendations listed for each particular mouthpiece. I was a little confused about what I thought would work until I found and read the recommendations. And they were spot on. Great job!

Very professional and timely.

Very good service, thanks

Aleksandra was a miracle worker. SO very patient and helpful. I wish I could send more than words to express how much her help meant. She really went above and beyond.

I like the stirrups very much and would order another pair but shipping was too expensive. So I will look at other options.

Absolut perfect

I like the bit so far. My client also got one and I realized I did not get the most flexible option that I had wanted. However, I am fine with it and between the two of us, we have two different options to use. The horses are liking the bits and accepting contact a bit easier. Old habits of the horse being overly respectful to the bit (one is a nervous chewer) are not quickly changed, so more time will show if they accept more contact and seek the bit more easily. The down side; I do not like the small d ring for our Hunter show horses who look better in a larger size. I did not get the full cheek, but I see the same issue. It must be a European thing. I can see this bit replacing the popular Happy Mouth bit that is so popular here in America. Fir the customer if the bit, the small d ring might be an issue.

Very friendly!!

So good to have the option of using a flexible plastic bit rather than the traditional metal bits

My pad was mislabeled and Aleksandra was very helpful in getting the situation resolved. Glad I had the correct pad and didn’t need to return it.

Always so helpful and informative!

quick shipping

We had to sort out some issues with fit, and ended up doing a return and re-buy. The customer service person was excellent and very helpful.

The Winderen half pad enables my horse with a sensetive back to stay happy and comfortable during our long distance rides

I’ve been using my pad for a few weeks now and so far my mare loves it. She always is a bit sensitive in the back but since using this half pad she has had no grumpy moments. Would definitely recommend if you have a sensitive backed horse!

Excellent responsive support

These are the best . They are so comfortable and beautiful. Worth the price and they go easy on the knees and back.

My horses really like this pad, more than my Mattes. Excellent customer service as well, they answered all of my questions and allowed me to do a week trial. I was a bit skeptical because of the cost, but the difference in my horses made it worth it.

My horse feels so much better with this pad. It’s the first one which works thank you ❤️

Lovely pad. I have two of the standard ones that are super. If I was to buy this correction pad again I would buy the thin version as I found this one too thick once adding in the shims.

My OTTB loves the mouthpiece and it has just enough leverage to ask her to come back when she gets excited. Great craftmanship. Would consider purchasing the same mouthpiece but with a different cheekpiece to add to my arsenal.

Nice weight, quality fabrics, great appearance

Beautiful and quality !

My horses are super happy with this ! will definately recommend.

We are really happy and satisfied. Both horses go really well with the bits. I have a much better connection to our mares' mouth. She is highly sensitive but now she's walking towards the bit and also walks much more active with whole of her body. Impressive! The gelding also dares to stretch towards the bit now. It was definitely the right choice to go with the flexi bit instead of the super flexi for him. He really seems to enjoy it as well. So over-all we are really happy and also appreciated your great service before buying it. Awesome consulting including video analysis. THANK YOU!

This is a lovely bit. The workmanship is perfect. The material is encouraging. Unfortunately my fat cheeked mare likes a thinner bit version. This is no fault of the bit, it is just a fussy red-headed mare.

The pad was easy to order and shipping from overseas to the US took less than a week. During unboxing, I immediately felt this pad was much larger than expected. I measured it against my other dressage pads and the length and height were similar but the width was much different. The shape of the pad creates a lot of extra padding in the front and on my 16 hand horse, it blocks half of his shoulder. I haven’t ridden in this of because I feel it it limiting to his motion due to the shape. I reached out to Winderen and they were willing to exchange it free of charge for another size. However, I took away two stars from my rating because they were not willing to cover the cost of shipping in order to complete the exchange. I checked with USPS and UPS and the cost to ship was going to exceed the cost of the purchase of the pad, so this was a lost cause. I have no qualms about the quality of the product but would not want someone else to end up in this situation, with a product they are stuck with and don’t want to keep. I took away another star from what would have been a 5 star rating due to the fact that I now own an expensive pad that I don’t use and will probably end up giving it to a friend with a larger horse.

Love, Love, Love this pad! Amazing fit with my custom saddle. Feels amazing when I ride. I’m close to my horse but the shock absorbency is there. Highly recommend.

Very Happy with service .

Love this pad, I can notice the difference in my horses relaxation and it stops the saddle moving and slipping

Very happy with them.

Lovely size shape and quality . Will buy again.

This is the 2nd one of these I have purchased . I really like these pads . The 1st one I purchased was the thinner pad which is definitely thick enough for my saddles. I will Definitely be buying another of the 10mm pads very soon.

I had forgotten to order the bit rings and customer service were brilliant. Thank you.

I love the technology. This color might look best in outdoor light, however. It looks just grey in our indoor.

This technology is amazing for my sore right knee as well as improving my overall balance and effectiveness in the saddle. They help me to reduce my tendency to brace through my right leg which increases my ease in using that leg.

Fabulous products and fabulous customer service. Thank you :)

The eggbutt snaffle side piece is easily assembled with the superflexi mouthpiece. My young OTTB much prefers the gel bits to a metal bit. He is more settled with his gel bit and more focussed under saddle.

I like the stirrups once I actually got the leathers attached. That was a 2 man job. Maybe make the opening a little larger?

First impressions is WOW, it looks so luxurious and simply fits perfectly. When you touch it, you can clearly feel quality.

A have a very sensitive jumping mare and she loves this girth - thank you

Fits nicely and allows my mare to use her body beautifully

A five star product! Thank you

Quick delivery and more then I expected

I recently purchased this bit for our warmblood he is loving this bit. He’s much happier in the contact and moving through his back. I would definitely buy another when I get another horse

I bought the Double Broken Mullen Mouth 2.5 Ring Bit for my Oldenburg gelding. We event and he can get strong at times, but generally is very sensitive to pressure, so finding the right bit was difficult. With the help of Alexandra, we opted for this bit and I really think he likes it. While there wasn't a huge difference, what I did notice was that I was able to use less pressure with half halts, actually learning to give and take more as it can be a strong bit. I have ridden in it 6 or 7 times and each time is better, use it only for jumping, he dressages in a Neule Scheule French Link. Thank you for your help and support, and the bit arrived here in the US in 5 days!!

Great customer service!

A friend recommended these to me last year, but I was reluctant to try them as I was partial to my big fluffy sheepskin pads. After waiting 2 months for a custom ordered half pad and receiving the wrong item, I decided to try the Winderen instead. These half pads are a game changer. I have a sensitive TB that requires chiro by my vet every 4-6 weeks. I received the pad in October. Between then and his next appointment in December, we had a rigorous 3 day clinic, trail ride in a national forest, and I had increased the amount of sitting trot in our work. Although he had issues in other areas of his body during the visit, my chiro/vet said the improvement in his back was amazing. It was the one area he showed no issues. I now even place it under my bareback pad when I ride. I also love that the cover can be removed and washed. Just a really gorgeous, innovative and quality product! Highly recommended!

Answered all my questions in a timely manner and made recommendations that turned out to be just right. Great job!

A interesting and innovative bitting system. My horse really likes the mouthpiece and quietly accepted the bit. Very nice.

Love the feel of these stirrups - you really do get the sense of shock absorption. I am giving 4 stars instead of 5, however, because of the difficulty finding leathers that fit through the miniscule opening at the top. Please, please re-design to allow leathers of normal thickness and width. Even better if they could fit the wide leathers that add to stability and that so many of us prefer.

Quality customer service

I LOVE the bit, the quality of the mouthpiece is very inviting to the horse, the one I ordered was a bit too large in diameter mainly due to not understanding the sizing when I ordered. I will be ordering more.

I can’t say enough about the pad, it is exactly the comfort for the horse that you explain it to be, I also know another woman who ordered as well and we are both extremely happy with them, I am a converted Mattis user because these offer better fit, MUCH easier care and don’t hold so much of the heat over the back. Again I ordered too big, I ride in a 17.5 and ordered the 18 so my advise to others is don’t order up stay true to your size. I will be ordering more.

Fast and easy ordering system.

Nice and good quality product.

My boy loves this bit his jaw is working over time now as he happily chews away on the bit. He was a very locked jaw horse in the past

This company is amazing. I had my young warmblood to have a terrible injury. I needed a wrap that would protect the injury area. Winderen was the only company to assist me with making the wright choice for protection. Thank you.

Winderen assited me with making the correct choice for my young warmblood. He had an injury that had to be protected during rehab. This amazing company took the time to work with me in making the correct choice. Thank you

My only issue was the £50 import tax I got stung with that I wasn’t aware of. I know it’s not winderen taxing me but might be worth staring at time of ordering as I already had to spend more for you to ship to the uk, to then have import tax on top was a shock

I wasnt sure quite what my horse would think of this as it’s so bendy and soft, but it is fab. My go to bit now for all 3 horses. I’m tempted to try a smaller one for my daughters ponies too!

A great everyday bit. I would have liked to be able to change the cheek pieces like the snaffle though

Fantastic products. My horse is never hot with these wraps.

Love the wraps.

I'm thrilled with your products and will pass on your contact information to my peers!

Bought this for our young daughter’s galloway to help protect his back. From the first ride he moved more freely and noticeably lifted his back under the saddle. The pad fit really well and there was no slippage at all, even after an hour’s work on the arena at all gaits. I must also mention that the packaging for the pad when it arrived was amazing. It came in its own timber box with sliding lid. Fast delivery given it came from Europe. Highly recommend and will be buying one of our other horse.

Very good fast response and shipping

Quick response from them when a question was raised

Great for granddaughter as she is just starting out with her new horse and is only 10yrs old

Peaches loves this soft and gentle bit

Additional import duties were added, but I think the cost performance is good because of the high quality and lightweight construction. Very good fast shipping. It is a product that I think was good to purchase.

Excellent products and quick shipping

Absolutely love my Winderen bit!

Absolutely love my Winderen pad!

I absolutely love this bit and so does my horse. He likes a soft mouth piece, but can get strong, so this was the perfect combination. Winderen was awesome and got me my bit super quick so I had it in time for a horse show. I will absolutely be purchasing more from here.

Very good for sensative horses, my horse likes very much this part

100% Fit

100% Fit

My daughter has always struggled with knee pain. Her new Winderen stirrups alleviate the pressure on her knees and have helped her feel more secure over jumps.

The online information and guides are very thorough allowing me to make informed product choices. Products shipped quickly.

Very high quality material. I bought it for winter use to prevent the problem of cold bits. I like the interchangeable system. Good design.

Solved my saddle fit problem! The half pad stays in place. Excellent quality material and construction

Expertly answered my questions promptly.

Game changer!

Sent item quickly

My horse approves!

Curb chain hook doesn’t stay on

Your customer support is outstanding. I can't say enough about how quick, thoughtful and helpful!

My horse loves this bit! She took to it immediately and is both soft and comfortable to take contact with it. My only question is since i show in the hunters, will it be "hunter ring" ok?

I did query the import tax as I wasn't aware of it and got a quick response.

I liked this hat. Looks really smart.

We have the snaffle bit already and progress was immediate in our flatwork. We decided to try the pelham for showing our thoroughbred. Being a fussy mare with little or no room in her mouth she accepted this bit straight away. Since trying it our mare has qualified for ROR, and last weekend gained 3 firsts and 2 Reserve Champions. We would recommend these bits for horses that constantly chew the bit.

Always helpful and somehow get my orders to me faster than lots of US-based companies!

The pad came quickly. I feel more comfortable in my saddle with the pad, and my horse seems more settled with it.

Normally it takes a few rides on the bit to determine if the horse actually likes it better than the previous bit or if you are imagining things. This bit was instant. My 5-year old immediately took it and started sucking on the bit when he was bridled and under saddle he was consistent in the contact and more willing to use his topline and back.

nice even distribution of weight, no complain from my horse!

AMAZING and excellent customer service. For those wondering if this passes the “golf ball test” from ThinLine, this pad is BETTER. Love it and super early to keep clean. Great fit with my saddle too. Will never not have this product!

Really really good

Very responsive

Perfect for our mule, she is being trained for driving and has been very happy in this bit.

Great customer support! Winderen Ladies make ordering from across the ocean an easy and pleasant experience

The petite dressage saddle pad is a perfect fit for my 11y/o and her pony❤️. Amazing attention to detail, very high quality of material and craftsmanship.

We have been looking for a well fitting bit for a while. This one makes our pony very happy and willing to put in the work we ask of him. Thank you Winderen!

Very happy with the wraps. We have recently used them in our 15 hour drive. They stayed put and made sure our pony was comfortable and safe. Very easy to clean, come with a mesh bag and snap on bands that make storage super easy.

All of my questions were answered very quickly

My horse immediately seemed more relaxed through his back when we put this pad on!

of very good material, does not pick up dirt and is breathable

One my favorite saadle baddle bad :)

I purchased one mouth piece and 2 bits based on the descriptions and recommendations. Very happy to report that Winderen nailed it! I could not be more pleased.

This mouth piece works exactly as described by Winderen. My mare and I are both extremely satisfied.

The best half-pad !

Works well!

Recommended by my coach I can honestly say the most fantastic bit I have ever bought. My new horse, a very sensitive 6 year old took to it instantly and is going a dream in it…thank you so much

Really happy with my new bit!

I love this system!

Outstanding Service! Polite, quick

These stirrups are amazing! Comfortable safety. Knee problems are completely gone! I will never ride with others again. By the way, they look very stylish

My horse goes better in this bit than anything else I’ve tried

I can finally sit the trot!

Very friendly, prompt responds. Very nice:)

Helpful

There is a significant difference in ride comfort for both of us. Amazing

My horse and I love this pad!

Fantastic bit, my horse loves it and most importantly he doesn’t mark it

Very happy but would like it if came with cheek pieces

I am over the moon with this bit - i have now changed it on 4 horses and all improved there connection

Perfect aid for my elderly horse who lacks topline.

Love all your products. Good quality that lasts and does the job it needs to do. Absolutely in love with it all

Very pleased with these bits. As a trainer I ride many different horses and most seem to really like this bit. Love the versatility being able to change the sides. Makes going from schooling to show easy. Liked it so much I bought another. I just wish they made a trainer package with multiple pieces!

Easy to change from one side piece to another

My horse is much more relaxed in the mouth during transitions.

Fast and helpfull!

Everything you expect from a curb chain

Great service. Slight mistake with the cheeks but just a human error and it was correctly quickly. Really good communication. Horse really likes the bit, will suit us for work in the arena and schooling, this is our 2nd winderen bit and she is the happiest she has ever been

Support was very helpful in expediting and exchange for me. They were responsive and eager to help. My only issue was the cost of the shipping return from the US was $60.

Love this pad. It is thin, well shaped and effective. It runs a little big and I had to exchange for a smaller size than my seat size or else I had two inches sticking out the back. For US customers returning the pad is outrageous - ship prices around $60 which is super unfortunate.

Super, very helpful and responsive

These are extremely comfortable and absolutely love them. I always have issues with my knees but have had no discomfort with these. My feet are quite stable and riding more pleasurable.

This was a revolution to my horse. She respected it and became very light in my hand. On the flip side It was only right that I had to be sensitive to this new fact and be respectful to her too. It helped us find a new happy place for our fun fast work. No pulling from her, no fighting from me. I haven’t even needed to add the curb chain or use the slots. She gets white lips for first time ever, she is very happy. We love it.

Absolutely love.

This bit functions nicely for a young off track thoroughbred. Would recommend it.

my horse has never been more comfortable and in no back pain, his rubs are basically gone and my saddle fits him so much better just because of this pad

The team at Winderen are awesome. The service and support is very good. So far my mare seems happy with the half pad. She has a history of getting a sore back and so far no sign of a sore back. Her shoulders move freely. Overall I am very impressed with the product and the company.

The best for the horse

These stirrups are life changing for me! I had knee replacement surgery this past winter and a friend recommended that I try these stirrups. They are amazing! No pain in that knee at all when I ride in them :-)

Nice design, good looking. Not easy to remove the inner pads and change the raisers but reis verry well. I could change the saddle position easy. I like it.

My baby horse chewed through plastic “happy mouth” bits, and used to fuss too much with his head. He absolutely loves this bit, has stopped fussing and it’s actually indestructible. I will be keeping him in these bits for life!

My son likes these stirrups very much.

Lovely people

Great product!

Amazing!! My horse loves her new bit and it’s the only one she hasn’t chewed through

Hi.. This is my first review ever. .. I want to say that the winderen comfort pad is really quite perfect. . I have a well-fitting CWD 17 1/2 jump saddle, and I bought the 18” pad. The pad compliments the fit of the saddle by giving the saddle nice, even pressure all the way around. I bought the dark blue and I love it. Eventually, I will get more colors. I’ve tried many high-end pads, but I truly think that this pad is less cumbersome and makes everything neat and tidy. On my 171/2 saddle, the pad goes past the end of the saddle for a little over an inch. I might have been able to go a size down from the 18”, but it still fits and looks great!!

Very happy I started to use this bit, it made a big difference for me and my horse!!

Aleksandra was fantastic to work with. She answered all my questions quickly and helped me get just what I needed sent right away. Very pleased!

I adore this bit! My horse is super sensitive in his mouth and has wounds inside his mouth very fast. Since I use this one he hadn’t have a single wound! He’s also finally really accepting the bit, which was very hard for him! I am super happy and my horse is too. I would recommend Winderen bits to everyone :)

Im really happy with this half pad, I feel a big difference when im riding a lot of horses. Amazing stuff, The best for your horse!

Beautiful cover! This helped my correction pad blend in with my show pad in the hunter ring. The little bit of rose gold is a nice accent. Love!

I am really happy with everything I bought. Although expensive the quality is fantastic so worth the investment.. very efficient and helpful staff and the website is very good..

My mare seems to be more comfortable in her work. Good quality and quick to deliver

Love it and so does my horse.

Super helpful and prompt answering my questions about trialing stirrups!

So far very pleased and the horses seem happy too

Good quality, easy to put on and they stay clean!! Beautifully presented..

Good size. Top quality. Not too thick so much easier to put on their legs..

For horses with sensitive mouths thus is really working

This rug is so smart - fits really well

No more sore horses! Top quality.. very well made

Very high quality and sharp looking!

I don’t have knee problems but due to a short Achilles’ tendon I can’t get my heels down easily and these have solved my problems! I feel secure and love these for jumping. The most comfortable stirrups I’ve ever used.

Perfect bit. Just what my horse needed!

My horse is so much happier while riding, his movement got much better

I'm sure they are great but I have not had a reason yet

I really love this bit over the Happy Mouth bits. Not sure my Lustiano mare is as happy. We are still working on connection and she has a difficult time with that.

Top for pony and young horses too

Love it, love the flexibility and softness. My horse has responded very favorably to it. He is very light in the mouth so this works great for him

Great quality for the price and the whole system is solid and elegantly simple. Well done. Will be buying more.

I’m really loving the saddle pad and more importantly so is my horse. Also the delivery time was brilliant and quick.

My horse accepted the bit and it looks like he enjoys it much better than the previous one I used ;) Thanks!

Very nice, friendly, competent, reliable, fast completion - overall TOP

Good quality fabric but some stitches came loose. Great that delivery was very quick!

Very good on several horses, possibly will order another

Works very well on horses with bad contact

I am very happy with my purchase, I have seen a big change in my horse. The only but I can find is that I lost the chain with it… and it keeps going out just the same on either side. Overall, my most sincere congratulations

My feet have a better grip and my knees are no more hurting with these one

It fits perfect on my horse and has a good hold

Faster dry than with his other one

Best wishes

Quick reply and action!

Good looking cap with a good fit.

Hi! Thanks to Dina Ellermann, I felt in love with Winderen products. This product is perfect for my younger horse! Just, love them!

I really love that they are heavy and hold my legs in just the right position. Super good product.

Jack and I love this bit! He is a constant chewer - on anything and everything but loves this in his mouth. It was worth waiting for!

Excellent product- very nice design

Well accepted by the horse, very good quality.

Lovely stirrups. Very secure and I’ve had zero knee pain since I started using them.

Love the quality of these pads! The color is even more adorable in person and the piping is shiny!

Every day when I ride my knees hurt during the warm up, the majority of the ride and then after I dismount. I have fallen to the ground before trying to dismount because my knees gave out. I am only in my twenties, but was diagnosed with Osgood Schlatter Disease which affects my knees. I have been able to ride pain free since I bought these stirrups! I am so thankful and honestly surprised they work so well! They have a good balance without being too bulky. 10/10 worth the money and would absolutely recommend to anyone with knee issues.

I purchased the flexible mullen with full cheek. I was apprehensive that he would not destroy it the way he had a Trust bit after less than 10 rides. There is not a mark on this bit and we have more than 10 rides on it. I will be ordering the softer option because I'm sure he can't hurt it if he hasn't harmed the flexible one. Simply amazing, worth the investment. This is the best response to a bit we have ever had.

星を5個つけたいのですが、つかないのはどうしてですか⁉

Väga ilus müts. Olen ülimalt rahul. Aitähh!

Very quick response to my questions

I love these pads

It’s beautiful

Product is great in impact absorption and pressure distribution (reduced a lot my dry spot area and I haven’t changed my saddle yet because my saddlefitter is very busy right now). But I had to make an improvement: I added some silicone grip to the top of it so it won’t move while I’m riding. I found the external fabric very slippery and bought expecting it since I’ve seen videos and other reviews saying the same thing. It’s a great product, but it could have the option to already come with the silicone grip ou another less slippery fabric.

Perfect support for horse and rider

I have two Winderen bits for my horse. He absolutely loves them and I love the ease of changing the mouthpieces or bit types. Wonderful product that I highly recommend.

I feel very comfortable and centered using this pad. However, I do have some difficulty getting it properly positioned, and I find it has slipped a little when I untack the horse.

Lovely make, easy to keep clean and perfect in the mouth - very happy

Comfortable and amazing quality

The best!!!

This bit has made the biggest difference in my horse! Would recommend it to anyone!

Very good quality.

Perfect one! The best I have ever had!

The Winderen pads, both Comfort and Slim, have been a lifesaver for my back when riding. My horses love them and the feel they create under the saddle is unmatched. I have a herniated disc in my back and the shock absorption of these pads is very noticeable from other half pads. It makes all the difference in the world for my pain level. I highly recommend these pads for both horse and rider.

Very helpful

So far so good! The quality is excellent. The feel of your foot in the stirrup is nice and secure and yet soft. They keep my feet straighter, which I appreciate. Product arrived very quickly and well packaged. Thank you!

Highly recomend!! Amazing to see how perfectly fits the horses back. The feeling what the pad gives while riding is amazing. Absorbe the shock 100%! I have a mare that is so unconfortoble that after every riding I hade pain in my nack and sholuders, after useing the back protect solution No Pain! Also the horse is more relaxed and whiling to work.

I've used mine for over a year now, checked the inserts and they are as new. No deformation, nothing at all. Definitely worth the money paid.

Best for the jumping

Love the material, easy to clean and after many times of washing still looking as new

I love these pads, wash beautifully

Fantastic in every way, exceeded my expectations and very good for horse too.

What a nice therapeutic pad. As promised, it did not affect the fit of my custom saddle which was very important since my gelding was so hard to fit. It has solved the cold backed/ sensitive back issue that I was having.

Great bit and very happy with the addition of size 115

Greatest pad I’ve ever met. Not thick but with high shock absorption. I’m happy having this for me and for my horse, too.

I absolutely love this pad. I’m even thinking about ordering another one

I have had enough lateral control with this cheek piece so I have not yet tried the full cheek that I also bought. I love how these are interchangeable. The bit overall is easy to clean. I just dunk it in water right after the ride and everything seems to slide right off of it easier than a traditional metal bit.

Very impressed by the quality of the Winderen saddle pads. These are actually made in the EU. It goes perfectly with my Winderen half pad and keeps my horse very comfortable. Accommodates my long saddle flap as well.

Aleksandra was very responsive and we solved my delivery issue which turned out to be a Fed Ex issue.

Aleksandra went out of her way to answer all my questions, help me customize my order, and follow up when needed. Thank you!

Great service and great products

THE BEST PAD FOR FIT, LOOKS & QUALITY!

LOVE THE PAD!

good product - satisfied

Love this pad! It stays where it is placed, hair brushes off easily and it maintains shape and look after washing.

My horse has kissing spines and seems to appreciate this pad. It is vital to position the saddle and pad perfectly correctly and then everything is balanced and stays in place.

Love the color! Quality is amazing. Definitely will buy more!

So nice and sound.

Securely fits with my saddle (Anky Grained) and makes smooth riding come true.

I am very pleased with your Half Pads, it serves its purpose very well. Greetings, Sandra!

We have a horse with a very sensitiva mouth and this works very well

I’ve finally found a bit my Percheron Cross mare seems comfortable in but can’t destroy. There is not one chew mark and the corners of her mouth no longer get sore. So far, we love this bit!

I was unsure what to expect with this half pad but I can say it’s definitely exceeded my expectations. First impression was that it didn’t feel any different while I was riding. But then I got home, and realized that my back didn’t hurt. My back usually always hurts after riding. Thinking it might have been a fluke, I rode in it again, and again no back pain. It has since been a few weeks, with little to no back pain after riding on a consistent basis. So I am now a believer in the technology of this pad! I also appreciate that it is nice to look at, with so many color combo options. I love the charcoal and rose gold. I have definitely recommended this pad to friends, thank you so much for creating this product!

Fast shipping of orders and a very good and seamless customer contact. Always a friendly and professional demeanor. Am absolutely satisfied.

My mare is very happy and pleased with this bit. Top!

Top quality saddle pad which gives more comfort to both horse and rider. Slim enough to go under any saddle. Highly recommended!

I was delighted with the fast shipping but really pleased with the product. It makes riding much more comfortable for me and I appreciate the durability of the pad. Well worth the investment. Thank you.

Very good quality and very functional, i really like

My horse is adjusting to the new bit well. He is less fussy with his head and has stopped rubbing his mouth on his knees. Huckleberry is able to focus, and that has made a world of difference in keeping his attention while riding.

My horse has a really oddly shaped back, and because of the shims that can be used to customize the pad, my saddle finally stays put while flatting and jumping. Even more importantly, she is now much more comfortable so she can use herself properly and start building more correct muscle. Definitely on the very expensive side, but so far I am finding it worth its weight in gold.

Love it! Mare approved.

Got this bit for my gelding and cannot believe how well he works in it, this is amazing! Can´t believe how big difference these bits have made for my horse, he is relaxed and calm. Really impressed by Winderen Support team also, they help always in the same day. Winderen is excellent!

Dear Winderen Team! Thank you so much for your support and courtesy. My 5-year-old Destano disliked every bit we tried- but with your Gel Bit System we finally found a bit he is as gentle and happy as I know him

This has been the best thing I have brought in a long time. Emailed company they were quick and efficient in getting back to me. Received after 3 working days. My horse has been working like a dream. Can’t recommend enough! 5 star

My horse was suffering from a sore back after jumping and even flat training sessions. The CWD rep came to check the fit of his saddle and recommended a pad with specific padding in sections and my trainer produced her Winderen correction pad which we set up to perfection! I ordered mine immediately and my boy is so happy now! A miracle pad that can be adjusted to accommodate any back shape!

Always responded same day. Really impressed with this company. Really! Product also arrived so fast !!!!

Amazing team support, very friendly and fast people from the other side of email, thank you!

Got one for my mare and cannot believe how well she works in it, my niece used it in her young horse too and could not get over the difference it made to him, they are amazing bits.

The best Pad for my back (I have discopatie) and for my horses back also! Without it I couldn't ride without pain in my back and now I have no more problems! My horse's back also does not show any tension! Proved by vet and physiotherapist! I am using it from almost 3 years, every day and will not change to any other pad!

I have parkinsons with a weakness in my left leg and foot. These stirrups allow me to continue riding my 18h powerhouse of a dressage horse safely. Terrific product and worth every penny to me. Before getting my Winderens, I would lose my left stirrup because I couldn't keep the tension on and the stirrup in place....very dangerous! Now, I am absolutely solid and comfortable.

two major knee surgeries in past 18 months to repair major cartilage damage. Damage thought to be from many years in the saddle doing jumpers and three day eventing. all stirrups hurt my knees after last surgery in 2020. western saddle worst. was using sprenger stirrups and found them to be the best as they flexed and gave me some relief in knee area but foot bed not wide enough to give me support while jumping or riding green horses. found your stirrups and ......GAME FREAKING CHANGER! No more pain and total foot bed support while jumping or riding greenies. only problem is that i only have one pair so I need to keep switching them from jump saddle to dressage saddle every other day which is a major pain. Looking into buying the sapphire pair next for my jump saddle. Really want to try your 1/2 pad however and maybe even a few bits. If you need more ambassadors, please reach out. I would love to help sell your products. if you have taken the time to really make the human products be game changers, i can only imagine what the horse products are like. Seriously, -these stirrups have not only taken my pain away but have actually gotten my confidence back because now if feel super secure in the saddle and I know my knees are no longer taking the brunt force they were in other stirrups. Thanks Winderen!

This is my favorite half pad! Completely eliminated my horses’ saddle bumps and fits seamlessly under the saddle. Quality is superb and the horses love it!

Very nice package and delivered on time!!

MY HORSE APPRECIATES THIS PAD & LOOKING FORWARD TO TRYING OTHER PRODUCTS.

Absolutely gorgeous and functional. Fits my saddle and makes my ride more comfortable. My horse feels free and easy under the saddle. Very pleased!

I find the surface a bit slippery. I wish the grip was more intense. The Plastic should be rubber.

This pad fit my 17.5” Schleese jump saddle beautifully. It provides cushioning while maintaining a close contact feel. I have the blue, charcoal and white with rose gold trim which is so subtle and pretty. Very easy to swap out covers as well. Will be ordering more. Toronto, Canada

The look is very sleek. My knee issues have lessened.

Excellent service, my horse has proved very fussy about her bit. I searched for a ported and mullen eggbut that also needed to be rubber, the fact it was orange was an added bonus. So far she is working well and think we might finally get out to compete.

I bough the super flexi bit for a young horse who has tendency to roll his neck and drop behind the bit. It has worked really well, the horse takes a good contact with it and carries himself in a better outline.

My horse loves this bit! Quality is lovely and shipping was very fast for coming from overseas.

Super fast getting my questions answered, helped me get the right bit

She was amazing

This is the quietest and happiest my horse has ever been with a bit. We both love it and will be buying a second!

This is the best pad ever. My horse has kissing spines, and was always grouchy about cantering. With the pad he canters amazing, I just say canter and he canters, no more grouchy. Thanks for making a amazing pad.

My horse loves this bit very comfortable in it , he was used to a snaffle , with a picture of his current bit the rep suggested this one .

Great service

Working well for my horse. I would like to see a slightly slimmer bit that is a pelham without a shank

Amazing! So easy to put together.

Amazing! My horse LOVES this mouthpiece. I will never go back after using this bit.

Very helpful, provided a quick answer to my question.

Helpful team, good shipping
