Please don't get sucked into believing that there is "best" endurance 
tack!  The reason there is such a variety is that no two people/horses 
need the same thing!  As for your leathers, if they work, why change? 
As for the Supracor pad:  the pad doesn't have the grip that a fleece 
cover provides so it tends to slip both on the horse's back and on the 
bottom of the saddle.  A lot of people tie the pad to the saddle (I use 
shoe strings) to keep it in place.  A lot of slipping may indicate that 
your saddle doesn't fit as well as it should.  The Supracor is not 
intended to correct poor saddle fit.  If you have only a minor fit 
problem, a good foam pad can help fill in the gaps.
