The choice of horse leg protection is essential to safeguard tendons, ligaments and joints during training, competitions and daily work. Tendon boots, fetlock boots, overreach boots, bandages and travel boots are not simple accessories, but technical tools that are indispensable to ensure safety and comfort.
Why they are important
During activity, the horse is subjected to continuous stress. Proper protection helps absorb impacts and reduce the load on tendon structures, preventing injuries that could compromise wellbeing and athletic performance.
How to choose
For effective protection, pay attention to:
- Size: it should fit snugly without pinching; too loose may shift, too tight can cause irritation.
- Discipline: show jumping, dressage, eventing or simple hacking each require specific models.
- Material: in summer, opt for lightweight, breathable options; for more intense disciplines, neoprene or reinforced materials provide greater durability.
Main types
Care & maintenance
Keep protections clean and dry, check there’s no debris or sand, and after use cool the limbs to promote tendon recovery.
Choosing the right protections means investing in your horse’s health and ensuring a longer, safer sporting life.
