Horse boots buying guide:
Horse boots serve different purposes depending on their design. Some riders use horse boots
to prevent leg injuries during riding or turnout, while others choose boots to combat a particular
horse’s predisposition for recurring injuries.
Boots can protect a horse’s legs from interference that can lead to abrasions and splints, and are
almost always recommended for use during lungeing.
Studies have shown that many boots, no matter their purpose, also help absorb some of the shock
on impact as a horse’s hoof hits the ground.
Protective boots are particularly important if your horse has big movement in his gaits, has sustained
an injury, or if he interferes meaning he has a propensity for one or more hooves to strike another leg
during movement.Horse boots are made of a variety of materials, including easy care neoprene and
plastic, sheepskin,leather and gel. Various styles of boots may have hook and loop closures, buckles,
or hook and stud closures.
Regardless of the differences between styles, most protective horse boots come in pairs with a left
and a right boot, with the closures of the boots designed to be on the outside of the horse's leg.
If the boots are not clearly marked left and right, the closures should still end up on the outside of
the leg with the ends facing toward the rear of the horse. If the closures were located on the inside of
the leg, they could interfere with each other, come undone or cause the horse to stumble.
The array of boots on the market might seem overwhelming initially, but if you identify your main
goal in putting boots on your horse, along with the type appropriate for your riding discipline, your
decision will become easier.
Horse boots fall into five main categories.
1.Cross country jumping boots-Designed to protect your horse through the rigors of cross country
courses, these boots are usually made of a fairly lightweight, strong material. They'll have durable
strike pads to provide extra protection to the interior side of a horse's leg. They usually have heavy
duty hook and loop closures, are easy to clean, and do not absorb water, which would add weight.
When choosing boots for eventing, some riders prefer those that reflect their team or stable colors.
2.Open front jumping boots-These boots typically have elastic straps and traditional hook and stud
losures, though some styles offer hook and loop closures. The open front design encourages a
horse to be more careful going over jumps as the horse will feel a fence pole if he hits it.
The boots provide strike protection from the back hooves for the tendons in the back of a horse's leg.
Open front boots are usually placed on a horse's front limbs, while ankle boots are placed on the
hind limbs. Riders generally choose a set of matching open front and ankle boots in conservative
colors. These boots are permitted in the jumper ring but are not allowed to be worn in the hunter ring.
3.Dressage/flat work-Boots designed for dressage protect a horse's legs from interference, and can
be a time saving alternative to polo wraps.
Dressage boots are usually lined with fleece or neoprene, and are made of materials that are easily
cleaned with water. Because of the tradition of elegance in dressage, popular colors for dressage
boots are white and black, and some riders choose brown boots to coordinate with their chestnut
mounts. Boots (and polo wraps) are not permitted to be worn in a dressage test, but they may be
worn in the warmup area.
4.Support boots-
This type of boot is engineered to support a horse's tendons and ligaments.
The boot surrounds the leg and has a strap that cradles the horse's fetlock joint to prevent hyperextension.
Horses with a history of or predisposition to support related injuries can benefit from this type of boot.
Support boots are available in a wide variety of colors.
5.All purpose splint boots-
Splint boots are a necessary accessory for horses that interfere.
All purpose boots have a reinforced inner strike area and are usually some of the most affordable types
of horse boots. Support boots are available in a wide variety of colors.
How to Estimate Your Horse's Boot Size ?
Most boots are available in small, medium and large sizes, and a few manufacturers produce boots
that are scaled to fit ponies and extra large horses. Some manufacturers, particularly those that
produce support wraps, provide sizing charts with their product packaging. In general, the height,
weight and breed of your horse in combination with the circumference of its leg, will provide you with
an estimation of the appropriate boot size to try on your horse. If you have a small horse with refined
bones, perhaps a large pony or Arabian that weighs less than 1000 pounds, you'll probably need small
sized horse boots. Many horses require a smaller size boot on their front limbs and one size larger boot
on their hind limbs. Most Thoroughbreds of average bone and an average height of about 16 hands will
require size large boots, while warmbloods and sport type horses may need large or even extra large boots.
How to Check the Fit of Horse Boots ?
You should be able to slide one finger between the protective boot and the horse's leg.
Your finger should feel snug between the two surfaces.
If the boot is too big or too loose, dirt can get inside and cause abrasions, or slide downward
where it may disrupt the horse's movement.
If the boot is too tight, it can damage the horse's tendons.
The length of a boot on your horse's leg should be checked as well.
You don't want the boot to be so long that it rises to the back of a horse's knee and interferes with
normal movement. It should, however, be long enough to cover most of the cannon bone area as
well as the inside of the fetlock.
Tips:
1.When fastening horse boots, be sure to use even pressure on each strap as you work your way downthe
leg. Follow the manufacturer's instructions carefully for your type of boots, and be careful not to over-tighten
them.
2.Remove boots from your horse's legs as soon as possible after your workout to allow any accumulated
heat to escape and to allow the skin and hair to dry.
3.Keeps the boots clean and free of accumulated dirt, grime and sweat which can be irritating to a horse's
sensitive skin
