Details about Griffin NuuMed HiWither Wool Half Pad in
A very useful, versatile numnah which can be used on its own or with a HiWither pad if preferred. Made in a 5oz quilt with our Classic wool on the underside against the horse's back. No collars. The Velcro straps attach the D rings on the saddle. Can be used with most saddles and works particularly well with close contact saddles. QUILT The quilted fabric Griffin NuuMed use in all their products is produced especially for us using carefully selected polycotton drill and various weights/densities of wadding. The heavier the weight, the thicker the wadding. The quilted fabric used in each NuuMed product, in conjunction with other components, is selected to ensure optimum product performance. We currently use quilt material made with the following wadding weights: 5oz - used in the majority of NuuMed numnahs and saddlepads. Has a very smart ‘chicken wire' design 9oz - used in selective product lines. Has vertical stitching pattern. 12oz duvet - offers very good levels of protection. Looks dense and ‘fluffy'. Vertical stitching design. 12oz stack - more compact than duvet. Very effective. Vertical stitching. 440g (approx 15.5oz) - our "Euro" quilt has an extra layer of wadding creating a firm, dense quilt but without any bulk. Visually similar to the 5oz. WOOL There are four densities of top quality 100% British wool used in NuuMed products. All the wool used is the same - but is woven onto a cotton yarn in varying densities. The different densities have been chosen for use by NuuMed to ensure optimum product performance. Once the wool is on the backing, it is then trimmed to NuuMed's required length. Wool densities used by NuuMed: • Lightweight - quality, less densely woven wool creating a soft, lighter weight finish. Trimmed to approx 1" in length • Classic - the original NuuMed wool. A more densely woven wool providing the optimum wool thickness for use in many saddlepads and numnahs • Classic (10mm) - this is the same wool density but trimmed to shorter length. • Luxury - Very densely woven wool creating a luxurious, thick, soft finish.
