Adjustable nylon straps hold your Cashel Tush Cushion(R) firmly in place, preventing sliding and shifting. The Tush Cushion(R) does not interfere with your balance and seat in the saddle; it just makes it much more comfortable. Color : Black

I use this on my English saddle and I like the softness. My only complaint is that it doesn't have a way to keep it really in place on the back of my saddle so it shifts around a little.

This was just what I needed to keep me comfortable on long rides. I bought the .75inch thickness. It fits my English jumping saddle perfectly and stays in place while riding if you have the straps pulled tightly. I can’t speak yet on the durability so didn’t feel I could give 5 stars.

This isn’t the same item pictured on Amazon or on the packaging. It’s much too small, the straps wouldn’t go around my thigh, let alone the sides of a saddle, AND there’s a strap sewn across the seat which isn’t shown in the ad or package photo. I’m tiny and this is way too small for me or my saddle. And finally, there is zero comfort in this pad. My saddle was as “cushiony” as this.

I finally found an English saddle to fit my very hard to fit draft horse BUT it makes my butt bones terribly uncomfortable after about an hour in the saddle. Plus the seat of the saddle is a touch big for me. This seat cushion did the trick and now I'm able to ride for much longer in comfort plus I don't slide around in the too big seat of the saddle. Two enthusiastic thumbs up for this product!!!

It's ugly, but it works. If you can, you're better off buying a saddle that actually fits you well and is comfortable. But if you have to ride in a saddle that makes your butt hurt, or if you've got back/hip issues that would benefit from some extra shock absorption, this will do the trick.I ride three times a week, but I don't own a horse, so I'm not riding in my own saddle. I'm not that finicky about saddles and am generally pretty comfortable in a wide range of styles/sizes, but one of the ponies I ride regularly has an incredibly uncomfortable saddle. It fits him really well, but is just all wrong for my body. I found myself tipping forward into a half seat to avoid the uncomfortable pressure on my seat bones and something about the saddle flared up my old back and hip issues. I had never used a gel saddle cover before and when this arrived, it felt nice and squishy, but I was skeptical that it would actually stay put. After a few rides, I'm very happy with it.It is easy to get on and off the saddle and it provides quite a bit of cushioning with no slipping at all, even when it's not held down by your weight. Posting and two point are fine -- it doesn't roll up in the back or move. And somebody was feeling a little frisky today because the weather turned cooler, and it didn't shift at all when he decided he wanted to hop around and then chase after a cantering OTTB when we were supposed to be trotting. That amount of bouncing would have been torture without the gel pad. With it, my back and hip and seat bones are all fine.Drawbacks? Well aside from being ugly, it's a bit hot. I bought it in late August and it made riding in the heat/humidity even more sticky and uncomfortable. But it's way more squishy and way less hot than a fuzzy saddle cover. It's also not a miracle fix for a bad saddle. I would much rather ride in something that fit me better, but as I don't have the option, I'm glad I have this thing.

This was too thick for my all purpose saddle and pushed me up out of the sweet spot. I haven't tried it on my close contact saddle but have a feeling it will also be too thick to feel connected to the horse. The padding IS comfortable, just not practical with my current equipment.

I bought this gel pad for comfort on an 8hr trail ride and my arse was very sore. Next day I tried a friends foam seat saver and it was better. If you looking for comfort for a long ride use the foam, but if its just for quick rides the gel pad should do just fine.
