Pannier Pad
This synthetic fleece pad protects your horse’s back and doubles as a comfortable 3/4 length sleeping pad. Keeps your Riding Panniers cleaner and is machine washable.

Y Breast Collar
If a Y-style breast collar is your preference, we can swap the standard straight breast collar for an adjustable Y-shaped breast collar. Fleece-lined just like the standard breast collar and attaches with quick-release buckles.

Extra Hardware and Strap Kit

No-Burn Picket Rope ™
This smooth, vinyl-covered rope prevents tangling and burning your horse’s ankles the way cotton rope can. Just enough stiffness to keep from forming small loops that can close around your horse’s feet, but supple and light enough to pack easily. Will not absorb moisture or urine, and is easily wiped clean. Includes booklet on training your horse to picket.

No-Chafe Foot Picket ™
No worries about injuring or chafing your animal’s ankles with this very comfortable, vinyl-covered foot picket. Will not pick up irritating burrs, seeds or moisture like fleece or felt does. Two may be connected to make hobbles.

Piggy Pack™
For those times you might want to use a pack animal for larger loads, this pack “piggy-backs” over Trail-Ease Riding Panniers and your saddle. Secured with its own cinch and compression straps. Used with Trail-Ease Riding Panniers, it rivals the capacity of traditional pack panniers! Matches Trail-Ease Riding Panniers.*

Yankee Britchin
Helps to protect the animal’s back if heavily loaded when placed over the croup and tightened to support the weight of the rear bags.

Pack-a-Bucket ™
Seamless polyurethane-coated nylon packcloth bucket takes up very little space in your pack. Approximately one-gallon capacity.

Tree-Hugger Straps™
For a tree-friendly highline, this 2” web protects the tree from being cut or abraded by the rope. Keeps the USFS happy!

RainFly/Riding Poncho
This waterproof, lightweight, multi-purpose rain protection is instantly ready for that sudden downpour. Rolls up and attaches to Panniers for easy access.
