Ortho-Pubis Seat Saver Dress Drilex - Black
The Acavallo® Ortho-Pubis dressage seat saver features 20 mm Hexagonal gel and Dri-Lex, with a front recess designed to reduce pressure on the pubic area. It helps relieve pressure and enhances breathability for a more comfortable ride.
Combining the non-slip, shock-absorbing qualities of Acavallo® Hexagonal gel with the breathable properties of Dri-Lex fabric, this seat saver is designed to support comfort and stability while riding. Its front recess helps distribute weight more evenly, while the design also aims to preserve the pubic area and improve the rider’s posture.
The gel is lined with Acavallo® Dri-Lex, a fabric combining hydrophobic and hydrophilic fibres in a composite structure. The inner layer remains dry, while the outer layer acts as a micro-reservoir for sweat and moisture, which then vaporise. An elastic strap runs longitudinally along the lower part of the saddle and attaches to the panels without altering the normal supports. Two side straps with grip hook onto the inside of the saddle panels, maintaining their normal position and preserving the saddle’s original structure.
This seat saver is also a practical, economical option for older saddles or saddles with poorly padded seats. It helps reduce discomfort where the rider contacts the saddle and protects the skin from irritation. Acavallo® gel is lightweight, highly elastic, non-toxic, safe for use on skin and easy to care for. It absorbs shock, helps stabilise the saddle and relieve pressure, supports close contact, and does not alter the saddle’s balance. Dri-Lex helps manage moisture, allows breathability, and helps prevent bacterial growth and odour development; it is also abrasion-resistant.
