Key Benefits & Features

- Lightweight, even when wet! Saves your horse effort and reduces fatigue.
- Breathable horse boots with a unique multilayer mesh design that allows heat to escape. Keeping legs cool is crucial to help prevent tendon and ligament injuries.

Protection provided by the Impact Sports Boots
The boot uses a five-layer system, with each layer chosen for its unique properties:
-
Perforated EVA (Ethylene-Vinyl Acetate) and liner – sits comfortably against the leg. The perforations allow heat to escape and improve breathability, while the flexibility of the material allows it to mould to the horse’s leg.
-
Strong nylon mesh – prevents debris from entering the boot and reaching the horse’s leg.
-
Internal tendon guard made of vinyl – strong and durable. Made in strips to mould around the leg while allowing free movement.
-
EVA waffle layer – commonly used in shoe soles and sports equipment padding, durable, breathable, and protective. Also easy to clean and maintain.
-
Strategically placed vinyl strike guards – on the front boot along the vulnerable tendon area and at the front; on the hind boot, covering most of the inside of the leg.
