Recommendation for shimmable western pad

I am looking for recommendation for shimmable western pad that needs to be contoured.
Pros and cons in terms of material,wool felt versus fleece or synthetic.
Budget friendly would be great - i saw some perfect high end ones but trying not to break the bank :grinning:

Western Anatomical Saddle Pad - Equinnovations

I LOVE this pad. Ok, it is not economical, but it is fantastic! Shimmable, contoured, spine clearance and nicely shaped. The website I posted is Canadian, but I imagine they are sold out of the US too, but they are European. I have had mine for 6 or so years, and it is still in fantastic shape!

Also not economical but EcoGold has a western pad line that I’m probably going to buy myself.
A friend has one and swears they are the only pads that stay contorted, up off the wither, and they are totally shimmable.

Love my Total Saddle contoured, shimmable wool saddle pad. My horse has never been more comfortable. Pricey, but worth every penny !

I bought a Mattes when they were 30% off plus another 10% off. Fully shimmable with felt pads. It wasn’t too far out of the price range for similarly shimmed options.
