Check What Size(s) You Need

So what's a buttpad?

 A buttpad has no synthetic padding - it is a piece of 100% natural sheepskin sheared to a 1" loft and contoured to fit
 basic seat sizes. The design is very simple - the pad is held in place by a single strap and retained by two quick
 releases for easy removal. In addition to the strap, the underside is left natural (uncovered) in order to create
 additional friction to keep the cover from sliding around on the seat. The strap remains under your seat for most
 bikes and is adjustable. This is a surface pad only, not an upholstered item (that's why it's called a "buttpad"). Its
 simplicity also keeps the price down. All in all, buttpads are used for riding comfort, either instead of or in addition to
 buying an expensive aftermarket seat, to enable us to stay in the saddle longer!

Why sheepskin?

 Sheepskin is a natural product that works like magic. Often used in medical applications to prevent bedsores, it
 keeps your "buttbones" from burning and is cool in the summer, warm in cold weather, reduces sweating, and
 keeps the bitch factor down. It's easy on - easy off, there are no moving parts, it has a universal fit, it is not affected
 by rain, and you can use it to wipe bugs off your windshield or as a pillow for camping! Even more, its affordable.

Sheared versus long hair, which is better?

Neither is better, just different. The sheared is more efficient for cooling and
comfort because it pockets more air, it has a more finished look and takes up less
space when stowed. The long hair is long and shaggy, the fleece varies from 1 1/2
to 3 inches long. It sometimes gives more comfort because of it's thickness alone.

What's the difference?

Rally specials- Our most economical pads, made from B grade sheepskins used in
automotive seatcovers, varied density, may have seams, sheared to 1" loft. Dyed in
a variety of colors

Deluxe- made from A grade premium hides sheared to 1", these have uniform density
and no seams, also dyed in a variety of colors

Deluxe long hair- same as deluxe only unshorn

Natural- These are undyed, unbleached, unshorn natural sheepskin. Fleece can
range from 1 1/2 inch to 3 inches long. Colors vary wildly, with colors resembling
wolf, buffalo, grizzly bear, or even sheepdog (we promise that no sheepdogs were
harmed) We sort them into light, medium or dark for shades available. None are
solid color.

Deluxe Natural - same as natural only sheared to 1" loft. Softer muted colors also
vary wildly but not as dramatic as unshorn. Currently we have alot with spots.

Care and Feeding:

 "What if it rains while I'm on the road?"
  Don't worry about rain too much. Don't put it on if you're heading out in a torrential downpour (the reason for the
 quick release strap), but don't stop and take it off if it rains either.

 "What happens if it does get soaked?"
 Remove the pad via its quick releases, shake it violently, blot with a towel and you're good to go. You can lay it flat
 to continue drying. Water will not hurt the pad.
 Never use heat  to dry it. 

 "Can I wash it?"
 It can be washed in baby shampoo, cool water, cool rinse; shake vigorously and blot dry; tumble on AIR - no heat.

 "How can I fluff it up again?"
  The nap can be restored by brushing the pad with a wire pet brush, like a dog or cat brush.

 And remember our motto: 
"JUST SIT ON IT!"
