{"product_id":"mayatex-scout-saddle-blanket-40x34-new-zealand-wool-heavy-weight","title":"Mayatex Scout New Zealand Wool Saddle Blanket – 40\" × 34\"","description":"\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis hand-woven 100% New Zealand wool saddle blanket measures 34 by 40 inches and delivers durable foundation protection under your saddle during western riding. The heavy-weight construction supports disciplines including western pleasure, reining, cutting, cowhorse, and ranch events where precision and appearance matter equally.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe blanket features black leather stoppers positioned on the straps—a practical detail that guards wool fibers from friction damage caused by latigo and off-billet strap movement during saddle adjustments. This addresses a real wear point that standard blankets expose.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe woven pattern draws from traditional Navajo and Aztec design aesthetics and combines black, slate blue, niagara blue, charcoal, ash, cream, and starlight in an intricate geometric layout. That specific color range pairs functionally with the range of show outfits western riders assemble, without the visual limitations of simpler palettes.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThe hand-woven construction and material choice—New Zealand wool rather than synthetic blends—means this blanket absorbs and disperses moisture from your horse's back, manages temperature variation, and resists pilling or matting under saddle pressure. Those properties justify use in the show ring where performance and appearance both count.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eBuyers choosing between mass-produced options and hand-woven alternatives often weigh durability against cost; this blanket's wool grade and craftsmanship target riders who plan to use the piece across multiple seasons and events rather than replace it yearly.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"For Animals, With Love","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44370143969383,"sku":"1313SCT-59","price":189.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0682\/2579\/4151\/files\/171720-default-L.jpg?v=1786583585","url":"https:\/\/www.foranimalswithlove.co\/fr\/products\/mayatex-scout-saddle-blanket-40x34-new-zealand-wool-heavy-weight","provider":"For Animals, With Love","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
