Riding Boots

Every boot in this collection goes on the horse, not on the rider. It is the boots-only view of our leg protection range: brushing, tendon, overreach, trucking, fly and sports medicine boots, together with the show and corrective boots used in polo, showing and American Saddler work. If you want exercise and stable bandages as well as boots, browse horse boots and bandages.

Everyday and Schooling

Brushing boots protect the inside of the cannon bone and fetlock when one leg strikes the other, which makes them the everyday choice for flatwork, schooling and hacking. Solo brushing boots come in neoprene, gel and the Comfort Airolite range, as front, hind or matched sets, with velcro or clip-on fastenings. A brushing ring, also called a sausage boot, is a rubber ring that fits around the pastern of a single leg for horses that dish.

Jumping and Fast Work

Tendon boots are open fronted, so the tendons at the back of the leg stay protected while the horse can still feel a pole and learns to pick its legs up cleanly. They are stocked on their own, as clip-ons, and in matched tendon and brushing sets. Sports medicine boots use layered neoprene to support tendons, ligaments and fetlocks through high impact work such as racing, polo and polocrosse.

Overreach and Heel Protection

Overreach boots, also known as bell boots, shield the heel and coronet when a hind foot strikes a front foot, and help stop a horse pulling off a shoe. They come in pull-on and velcro versions. The leather coronet boot is the heavy duty alternative, built for polo and polocrosse.

Travelling, Turnout and Fly Season

Trucking boots protect the legs against knocks and bumps while boxing, in short and long lengths and in padded or plain versions. See the full trucking and travel range for rugs and accessories that go with them. Paddock boots are thick felt turnout boots that absorb concussion in the field. Fly boots are breathable mesh boots that keep flies off the lower leg and stop a horse stamping. More seasonal cover is in fly protection.

Show Ring and Action Work

Quarter boots are white rubber front boots worn in the show ring to encourage a high stepping action while protecting the heel and coronet. Alongside them this collection carries hobble straps and action chains, the felt-lined cuffs and weighted pastern chains used in American Saddler and show breed training to build an elevated gait.

Choosing and Fitting

Match the boot to the job rather than buying one pair for everything: a horse that brushes needs brushing boots, a jumper needs tendon boots in front, a horse going to a show needs trucking boots for the journey. Sizing runs by boot type rather than one universal scale, so check the size options listed on each product. Boots should sit snug without pinching, and velcro should overlap fully and fasten flat.
