Medium Classic Equine Horse Tack We Shaped Western Swayback Cushion Black

The Medium Classic Equine Swayback Cushion in Black is a Western saddle pad designed to improve fit and comfort for swayback horses. It targets pressure distribution to protect the back and stabilize the saddle, making rides smoother for horses with conformational challenges.

• Size: 28" x 30" for a broad, supportive fit across the horse’s back
• Color: Black, a versatile, discreet option for most tack setups
• Material: hi-tech foam used in Cashel Cushion pads for durable, responsive cushioning
• Thickness profile: 2" center thickness that tapers to 3/4" at the front and back; main portion 1.5" reducing to 0.75" on the sides
• Design purpose: specifically helps keep the saddle from riding on the shoulder and loin by filling the hollow behind a swayback
• Versatility: can be ridden against the horse or placed on top of a thin blanket or pad
• Compatibility: works well with 1/4" felt liners to customize fit
• Targeted benefits: supports horses with muscle atrophy behind the shoulder or other conformational obstacles through balanced saddle pressure

The cushion is designed to be a practical, easy-to-use solution that enhances saddle fit and horse comfort without adding bulk. By filling the hollow behind a swayback and distributing pressure more evenly, it helps reduce saddle movement, protect sensitive areas, and support a smoother ride for both horse and rider. Use it as part of a thoughtful fitting approach—pair with appropriate liners and blankets to tailor the setup to your horse’s needs and riding discipline.
