Location: ND | I won't use any neoprene pads on my horses, period. My dad & brother had a couple Won pads, they where incredibly sticky & did not move on the horses back. On more than one occasion I found the horses back swollen into the vent holes along the spine.....I've got a lot of assorted pads in my barn but all my good horses have 5 Stars. |

I just put a thin wool liner under mine for that reason. Its a good pad i can't use mine anymore. its too long for my current horse. He's only 14.2 with a short back. |

Location: Under The Big Sky Of Texas | I wont use neoprene either, but I love my 5 Stars and I just order a Oxbow Pad from a BB on here that has a heck of a deal on them. So I thought what the heck I have heard good things about the Oxbows too.  |

Google and you will find info on them. I got mine in the other day, my horses are not sway back so I cant tell you if they would work on one, but I sure do like the one I got and now I'm getting another one in a different color, I'm still a 5 Star lover but now the Oxbow is right up there with my 5 Star. |

Good to hear!! I'm from where they're made and they're easily found at local stores!! Might have to look further into them! |
