Abstract
A pair of saddlebags has a unibody construction provided by an elongated, single piece, base panel that forms the wide sides of the saddlebags that rest on the horse and forms the entry side of the saddlebags. A removable liner contains rigid insulation to help retain the shape of the saddlebags as it maintains an even temperature inside the saddlebags. The lids of the saddlebags are biased to be self closing. Extra storage pouches are formed on the smaller side panels of the saddlebags and a carrying and storage handle is sewn onto the base panel and into the individual saddlebags.
