I recently bought a coats with a drop rigging and my pads seem too shallow. Has anyone had issues with pinching when the d is hanging a little off the pad? I haven't tried my CSI for this saddle because it is a thick one and I need the thin and probably rounded one. My 5-Star is way too short and a Saddle right is a tad better and a Slone is the only thing close to leaving the D on the pad but it is my roping one and thicker than I need.

thanks Roxie! Yes, that is what they call the Trail Pad, but we can also do a wider pad. Their widest "standard" one is 32" wide, an we can custom cut any width.

I like cinches looser if my horse has withers but it never feels like it's tight enough? Both my Larry Allens have lower Ds but they still feel tight. Definitely like the drop rigging though because my older coats skirts are shorter than most saddles and I feel like this new one wouldn't roll, not that the old one does.
