Eskadron Saddle Pad Bicross Mattgloss Classic Sports 26

The Eskadron Bicross Mattgloss saddle pad from the Classic Sports 2026 collection is a quilted pad with a matt glossy outer fabric, diagonal Bicross inserts, a Cool-Dry underside and a mesh spine channel. It is meant for riders looking for a modern, sporty look combined with a stable position and good ventilation under the saddle.

About this saddle pad

The Eskadron Bicross Mattgloss saddle pad belongs to the Classic Sports 2026 collection and stands out through its outer fabric. Mattgloss is a matt, glossy fabric: it gives the pad a clean, luxurious appearance without the hard shine of a high-gloss pad. Anyone who wants a modern look that is not loud finds the middle ground between the two here.

The most recognisable feature is the Bicross inserts with Eskadron emblem on both sides. That diagonal insert is more than a design element: it gives the pad a dynamic line and at the same time reinforces stability in the saddle area, exactly where most of the forces act on the pad. A contrasting colour combination brings that diagonal out even more.

Under the saddle, the subtle quilting with medium-thick padding does the work. It provides a stable position and an even pressure distribution across the horse's back, without adding excessive volume. The Cool-Dry underside carries moisture away efficiently, which supports your horse's comfort during daily training and during more intensive sessions. On top of that, the mesh spine channel along the spine provides extra ventilation and better air circulation under the saddle.

For the fit, Eskadron combines integrated anti-slip silicone surfaces, which help limit shifting, with the Innostrap system and girth loops with three attachment options. That lets you fasten the pad precisely and securely, matched to your own saddle and girth. The result is a reliable fit and a professional appearance in every discipline.

Key benefits

• Matt glossy outer fabric for a clean, modern appearance
• Diagonal Bicross inserts that reinforce stability in the saddle area
• Subtle quilting with medium-thick padding for an even pressure distribution
• Cool-Dry underside that carries moisture away efficiently
• Mesh spine channel for extra ventilation along the back
• Anti-slip silicone surfaces that help limit shifting
• Innostrap system and girth loops with three attachment points for precise fastening
• Usable in every discipline, from training to competition

Practical advice

When you saddle up, make sure the mesh spine channel stays clear: pull the pad well up into the gullet of the saddle so the channel stays open and the ventilation along the spine can do its work. Then set the girth loops using the three attachment points, so the diagonal Bicross inserts sit symmetrically on both sides.

The matt glossy outer fabric shows dust and hair less sharply than a high-gloss pad, but it looks its best if you knock the pad out and brush it off after riding. Let the Cool-Dry underside dry out in the open before you store the pad. If you choose a contrasting colour combination, the diagonal insert stands out more clearly in the overall picture.

When to choose this saddle pad

This saddle pad suits riders who want a distinct, modern look and at the same time a technically sound pad. The combination of Cool-Dry, mesh spine channel and anti-slip zones makes it suitable for daily work, in every discipline, and the finish holds up on a competition day.

If you want a completely understated pad in a single colour without a diagonal insert, a plainer model from our range makes more sense. If you are looking for a pronounced high-gloss outer fabric instead, a highgloss version from our range answers that better than this matt shine. And anyone looking above all for plenty of volume and cushioning under the saddle is better off with a more thickly padded example from our range.
