Setup, Compatibility & Care
To achieve the best fit, position the boot so the protective shell sits comfortably over the fetlock joint, ensuring it does not interfere with the pastern or impede movement. Tighten the hook and loop closures firmly, ensuring the over-locking straps are fully engaged.
To maintain the longevity of the boots, always wash them in a wash bag to prevent the hook and loop strips from snagging other items or damaging the machine. Use a gentle cycle at 30 degrees. Always fasten all closures prior to washing to protect the fabric. After washing, air dry the boots in a well-ventilated area away from direct heat sources like radiators or intense sunlight, which could compromise the TPU shell.
