Toklat T3 Matrix SHIM Felt Pad

IIntroducing the T3 Matrix Shim Pad from Toklat – a versatile product that can be tailored to your horse’s needs. The T3 Performance Pads by Toklat provides excellent impact protection, similar to the gear worn by NFL players, and are capable of withstanding powerful hits.

These pads are lightweight and breathable, ensuring your horse stays comfortable in the summer heat. The pad’s non-slip military-grade topper keeps it firmly in place, even on challenging terrain. Additionally, the pad is ergonomically designed to allow maximum freedom of movement for your horse.

The Shim pad includes six pockets on either side of the spine, each containing two 1/4″ customizable felt shims. This offers a total of 12 shims, which can be adjusted to your horse’s specific needs. It’s important to note that the pad should not be used with all 12 shims at once. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact us via phone or email.
