Product Information

Full details

The ARMA Air Motion Brushing Boots are designed for horse owners who prioritize equine leg health during daily exercise and schooling sessions. These boots provide a superior balance of impact protection and breathability, utilizing advanced Air Motion fabric to prevent overheating during intense movement. While they offer robust defense against strikes and impact, users should be aware that their high-performance cushioning requires careful cleaning to maintain long-term structural integrity and hygiene.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Can these boots be used for turnout?

These boots are designed primarily for active schooling. Extended turnout may lead to the boots becoming saturated with mud, which can trap debris against the horse's skin.

Are these boots waterproof?

No, the Air Motion technology is designed for maximum breathability rather than water resistance.

How do I know if the Full size is right for my horse?

The Full size is standard for most average-sized horses. We recommend measuring the length of your horse's cannon bone to ensure the boot does not overlap with the knee or interfere with the fetlock joint.

Can I machine wash these boots?

Hand washing is highly recommended to protect the integrity of the fibreglass polymer shields and the specific construction of the Air Motion fabric.

Do these boots protect against over-reaching?

These are brushing boots, designed to protect the cannon and tendon areas. They are not specifically designed to protect the heels or coronet band from over-reach injuries.

Troubleshooting

Boots sliding during exercise

Ensure the hair on the horse's leg is dry and the boots are applied at the correct tension; check that the touch-close straps are free of debris.

Straps not holding securely

Use a small brush or a dedicated 'hook' cleaning tool to remove accumulated hair and dirt from the touch-close fasteners.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Excellent breathability prevents heat buildup
  • Reinforced strike zones for increased lifespan
  • Lightweight design does not impede movement
  • Easy to secure with adjustable straps

Cons

  • Requires regular washing to keep airflow pores clear
  • Specific fit sizing requires careful measurement
  • Not intended for turnout in muddy conditions

Setup, Compatibility & Care

For optimal results, ensure the boots are positioned correctly so the strike pad faces the inside of the leg. When fastening the touch-close straps, tighten them firmly enough to prevent sliding, but ensure you can still fit a finger between the strap and the leg to avoid restricting circulation.

Care Instructions:

  1. Brush off dried dirt after every use to maintain breathability.
  2. Hand wash in cool water with a mild, non-biological detergent when needed.
  3. Air dry away from direct heat sources to prevent the fabric from becoming brittle.
  4. Periodically inspect the touch-close straps to remove hair and debris for better adhesion.
