Product Information

Why Choose a Medical Sheepskin Bed Pelt?


The Bowron FleeceEase XL Medical Sheepskin Bed Pelt provides natural cushioning and comfort where it's needed most. Made from one extra-large genuine medical-grade sheepskin, it can be positioned beneath the hips, back, shoulders or legs to provide a soft, supportive layer between the body and the surface underneath.


Unlike a full mattress underlay, the FleeceEase XL is a single natural-shape sheepskin pelt, making it easy to reposition and use wherever additional comfort is required.


It's suitable for use on beds as well as chairs, recliners and wheelchairs, making it a versatile option for everyday comfort and care.


Premium Medical-Grade Sheepskin


The FleeceEase XL is made from premium-grade genuine medical sheepskin with approximately 30 mm (1.25 in.) of dense wool.


The resilient wool fibres provide natural cushioning and help distribute pressure more evenly across the surface. At the same time, the open structure of wool allows air to circulate and helps manage heat and moisture.


These natural properties make medical sheepskin particularly comfortable for people who spend extended periods sitting or lying down.


Extra-Large Natural Pelt


Measuring approximately 120 × 65 cm (47 × 26 in.), the FleeceEase XL provides generous coverage while retaining the natural shape of a genuine sheepskin.


Its size makes it particularly useful for placing beneath areas such as the:



  • Back and shoulders

  • Hips

  • Legs

  • Upper body


Because it isn't attached to a mattress or fitted backing, it can easily be repositioned depending on where additional cushioning is required.


Natural Comfort for Beds, Chairs & Recliners


Although designed as a medical sheepskin bed pelt, the FleeceEase XL isn't limited to the bedroom.


Its natural shape and portable size make it suitable for use on:



  • Beds and mattresses

  • Recliners and armchairs

  • Wheelchairs

  • Other seating where additional cushioning is desired


This versatility can be especially useful when comfort is needed in more than one location throughout the day.


Naturally Breathable & Temperature Regulating


Genuine wool is naturally breathable and helps create a comfortable microclimate between the body and the surface underneath.


The wool fibres allow air to circulate while helping manage moisture and temperature. This can make sheepskin feel comfortable across changing conditions rather than simply providing warmth.


The dense fleece also provides a naturally soft surface without relying on synthetic cushioning alone.


Made from Genuine Medical Sheepskin


The sheepskins used for FleeceEase are specially selected and processed for medical use.


The finished pelt has a dense, uniform fleece designed to provide consistent cushioning and comfort, with the Oaten colour giving it the distinctive appearance associated with medical sheepskin.


The sheepskins are tanned in New Zealand, with the finished FleeceEase product assembled at Bowron's facility in Vietnam.


Easy to Care For


The Bowron FleeceEase XL is designed to be practical for regular use and can be hand or machine washed when required.


For best results:



  • Use cold or lukewarm water

  • Select a gentle wool cycle when machine washing

  • Use a detergent specifically suitable for genuine sheepskin

  • Avoid enzyme-based detergents, bleach and fabric softeners

  • Allow the sheepskin to dry naturally away from direct sunlight and heat

  • Gently reshape the leather while damp

  • Brush the wool once completely dry to help restore its appearance


Avoid tumble drying or placing wet sheepskin directly beside a heater or radiator.


Which Medical Sheepskin Underlay Is Right for You?


The FleeceEase XL is best suited to customers wanting targeted cushioning rather than a full-bed underlay.


Choose the FleeceEase XL Medical Sheepskin Bed Pelt if you want a single portable sheepskin that can be positioned beneath particular areas of the body or moved between a bed and chair.


For greater bed coverage, our multi-pelt Natural Shape Medical Sheepskin Underlays provide larger areas of genuine medical sheepskin.


For a rectangular, fitted option, our Genuine Sheepskin Bed Pad & Wool Underlays feature a quilted backing and elastic corner straps to help secure them to the mattress.


Natural Sheepskin Comfort Where You Need It


The Bowron FleeceEase XL Medical Sheepskin Bed Pelt combines dense medical-grade wool with the natural breathability and cushioning of genuine sheepskin.


At approximately 120 × 65 cm, it's large enough to provide meaningful coverage while remaining easy to position on a bed, chair, recliner or wheelchair.


For anyone seeking a simple, natural way to add additional cushioning and comfort to the areas that need it most, the FleeceEase XL is a versatile choice.


For people with limited mobility, existing pressure injuries or specific medical needs, we recommend discussing appropriate pressure-care products and positioning with a healthcare professional.
