Where technical performance meets everyday comfort 

The LeMieux Merino+ Essence Close Contact Square in Jungle is designed for riders who want both style and function in the saddle. Crafted specifically for forward-cut jumping saddles, this pad combines the sleek performance of the Essence collection with the added comfort and pressure relief of LeMieux’s innovative Merino+ blend.

The contour quilted soft shell outer is shaped to follow your horse’s natural lines—no bunching, no slipping—just a clean, polished look every ride. Underneath, the self-cooling lining works hard to regulate temperature, drawing heat away from the skin while efficiently wicking moisture to keep your horse cool and comfortable.

The standout Merino+ front roll and rear collar offer the appearance and stability of a half pad—without the added bulk. This unique blend of natural Merino wool and technical fibres helps reduce pressure points while maintaining a secure, balanced fit.

Finished with thoughtful details like a durable matte girth protection panel, 3D carbon mesh spine for airflow, and LeMieux’s signature fit system, this pad is built to perform just as beautifully as it looks.
