FLINT ORIGINAL HOSPITAL FELT™

English Girth's and Western Cincha's

Flint Original Hospital Felt™ is free of coatings or finishes to ensure air circulation and dissipation of heat and moisture from the horse's body.

The fibre loops mesh with the horse's coat to prevent slippage under the saddle.

Due to the high content of special fibre, not found in sports felt, Flint Original Hospital Felt™ offers excellent protective and therapeutic qualities and excellent shock absorption value.

The main advantage is its ability to absorb and wick both moisture and heat away from the horse's body.  The short fibres work with the horse's coat resulting in much less slippage.

Flint Original Hospital Felt had its origin in 1989 when David Flint, owner of Flint Saddlery, was asked by concerned professional equestrian people (English and Western disciplines) whose horses are used many hours daily to find a solution to such problems as scalding, fibrosis and ulceration resulting in the horses being unusable for days.

Bacteria won't grow in the pad.  You will find that your horse is much drier under the pad after a ride.

These qualities are retained after extended use and enhanced by frequent washing of the pad.

Since it is exchangeable it helps to prevent the spread of skin diseases from horse to horse when working several horses a day.

Flint Saddlery has developed Western/Ropers cinches, English and Australian girths with removable felt pads for easy washing to keep it clean.

The Comfort Edge
ä is an innovative design where the lining is wider and wraps over the front edge of the cinch/girth to pad the horse’s elbow.  “It was the testers’ favourite cinch” (Horse Journal, June 2002).
