Which seat saver should I buy?

I think I will be using Moonshine's saddle on Rowan for the foreseeable future. Her saddle is an old style dressage saddle and it is very stiff and slick. I hate it. So I want to get a seat saver. I figured this is what I can do with my $50 Dover gift card. I could get a sheepskin one like this:

Or a gel type one like this:

The advantage of the sheepskin one is, it's in stock now. The advantage of the gel one is, I think it's the same one that the lady who used to ride Moonshine used in her saddle, and I know it fits really well.

I'm leaning toward the "in stock now" one. What do you guys think?

Sheepskin all the way

Definitely sheepskin. I have never met anyone who likes the gel style, they just pancake.

Alright. 100% in favor of the sheepskin, and I'm in a hurry. I ordered it. Thanks!
I have both the thinline and sheepskin. The only issue with the thinline is I don't move as freely in it which is fine on some horses but most I don't need it.. It was free with one of my orders so I don't know how much they are. I love the sheepskin.

Sheepskin. I have sheepskin seat savers for every single one of my saddles (and a full cover one for a dressage saddle). Love them.

I would go for the sheep skin one. I really like natural things over synthetic most of the time.

i see you ordered the sheepskin . Is that real sheepskin or synthetic. Wool products make me itch with prolonged contact (even through other material )
