What do you prefer, if not using a wool saddle pad, fleece bottomed or felt bottomed? I've only had fleece (or faux fleece) but is there a benefit to one or the other? Thanks!

my mare hates felt or wool, so I have to get fleece bottom. She pretty much dictates what I shop for ;)

I have noticed the felt sits "tighter" around the turns when running, but my mares prefer the fleece for everyday riding. My stud could care less.

I prefer authentic, real felt, or real fleece (sheepskin)

I usually use felt. I just got a classic equine that has a wool blanket on top, 7/8 felt inside and 28 oz fleece on the bottom.. So the best of both worlds? 98.99 on horse.com. Im feeling pretty cheap and broke this spring... LOL

I prefer a Navajo blanket against my horse then it is a toss up for wool felt or false fleece bottom. One it keeps the pads clean and the other I can throw it in the washer and keep from getting fungus backs.
