| I keep seeing everyone raving over their 5 star pads everywhere I go. I checked them out on the website and they sure do seem nice, a LOT more than I can afford lol, but nice. I am just wondering what makes them different from any other decent 100% wool pad? |

| It's hard to explain if you haven't experienced it. I think the thing I like the best is that they are soft. They conform to your horse too. They don't compress much over time, even the thin ones, and they hold up and are easy to clean. The quality is outstanding. |

They quit making the pretty colors a couple years ago. Everyone that has a blue one wont sell them! My daughter stalks FB trying to find one but no such luck. Rockyroad tried talking me into ordering a pretty color when they were quitting making them and I said - "no, the natural goes with everything". Now I'm just mad. |

Let me get this straight. They cost more than my saddle and you can't get a blue one? |

| I have 2 now of different thickness. We has the chiropractor out last weekend and we were fitting a couple different horses so we had a variety of everyone's saddles and pads out - my 5 stars were by far the best quality IMO and the softest both in texture and conforming factor. Love them. |

Nope, can't get a blue one. I even emailed 5 Star to see if I could have special treatment since I'm a nobody from South Dakota. They didn't even reply, must have thought I was kidding. I even had the great idea I'd dye one of my natural pads!!!! Until my daughter said - mom, what's your horses going to look like when the dye bleeds off. I don't know.......Blue? |

Soooooooo Nateracer.......do you have a blue one?
No, I have 2 naturals, 1 black, and 1 green. 1/2, 3/4, 1 and 1 1/8 (sold to me as 1 inch) in that order. The green one was bought as my home work pad for spring when they are all hairy. |
