With the well-being and performance of our horses in mind, VIP looked at the available gel pad products on the market and thought they could do better! They discovered Akton® Polymer as a raw material; a renowned viscoelastic polymer that has been rigorously tested worldwide in 40 years of human grade, peer reviewed, research. It is universally trusted in human clinical and sporting settings for its superior pressure relieving, impact and sheer force reducing qualities.
Every horse deserves to be a VIP!
Gold is the most versatile colour as it becomes almost transparent under a saddle. Black is the most popular with Dressage riders.
