Overreaching occurs when a horse's hind hoof strikes the heel or back of the pastern of its foreleg, often during faster gaits. This can cause injury or pull off shoes.
Yes, they are suitable for various disciplines including schooling, exercise, and turnout, providing protection against overreach injuries.
The fleece can be brushed to remove loose dirt. For deeper cleaning, gently wash with a damp cloth. Ensure it dries completely to prevent irritation.
While designed for extended wear, it's advisable to monitor the horse for any signs of rubbing and allow periods without the boots, especially in very wet conditions.
The horizontal rings are reinforced to provide extra strength and superior shock absorption, enhancing the protective capabilities of the boots against impact.
The Extra Small size is typically for ponies or horses with fine lower legs. Measure your horse's pastern circumference and compare it to the product's sizing chart, if available, or consult the manufacturer's recommendations.
Ensure you have selected the correct size. The Extra Small may not be suitable for all horses. Loosen fastenings slightly, but ensure they remain secure enough to prevent slipping.
Check the fleece lining for debris. Ensure the boots are not too tight and are positioned correctly. Allow the horse breaks from wearing the boots.
Verify that the fastenings are securely tightened. Ensure the boots are the correct size and shape for the horse's pastern. Clean the inside of the boots and the horse's legs to improve grip.
Setup:
To ensure the boots provide maximum protection and comfort, proper fitting is essential. The boots should fit snugly around the pastern and over the coronet band without being too tight. Secure the boots using the appropriate fastenings, ensuring they are even on both legs.
Compatibility:
These overreach boots are designed for horses that tend to overreach. The Extra Small size is best suited for ponies or horses with particularly fine legs. Always check the sizing guide provided by Hy Equestrian to confirm suitability for your horse.
Care:
After use, clean the boots with a damp cloth to remove dirt and debris. For heavier soiling, they can be rinsed under cool water and allowed to air dry thoroughly. Avoid using harsh chemicals or detergents, as these can degrade the rubber and fleece materials. Ensure the boots are completely dry before storing them to prevent mildew and maintain material integrity.
