Fetlock Boots & hind leg protectors for horses
In the world of equestrian sports, the safety and well-being of your horse are of great importance. A crucial part of leg protection is the use of fetlock boots and hind leg protectors. These protective boots play a vital role by providing optimal protection for your horse’s legs.
Fetlock boots are designed to protect the inner side of the horse’s hind legs. They offer specific protection against injuries that may occur when the horse strikes its own legs during movement. This type of injury is common among competition horses, and using the right protection helps minimize the risk of such issues.
Benefits of fetlock boots
At HorseOnline, we offer a wide range of fetlock boots, each with unique features designed to maximize your horse’s performance and comfort. They are often made of breathable materials to prevent overheating while still delivering excellent protection.
Modern fetlock boots come with various fastening systems. Pin closures or clips are allowed under FEI hind leg protection regulations. Additionally, Velcro fastenings are only permitted if they are non-elastic.
Hind leg protectors for extra protection
The fetlock joint on the horse’s hind leg is one of the most vulnerable parts of its body. Using hind leg protectors is essential to safeguard this area when your horse brushes or strikes itself. Our protectors fully wrap the fetlock—on both the inner and outer sides—offering more comprehensive protection than fetlock boots alone.
Different types of hind leg protectors
These days, protectors are available that also shield the pastern area of the horse. This not only provides extra security but also gives riders peace of mind, knowing their horse is thoroughly protected.
When selecting protectors, it’s important to pay attention to the materials used. Many modern designs incorporate materials such as carbon, which offer high-impact protection without being too heavy. Carbon is especially valued for its shock-absorbing properties and its ability to deflect impacts.
Shock absorption & comfort
The use of gel technology in protectors enhances shock absorption, which is essential for horses involved in intense training and competitions. This gel layer helps reduce strain on the tendons, minimizing the risk of injury.
Protectors for sensitive horses
For horses with sensitive skin, fleece-lined tendon boots are an excellent choice. The soft sheepskin lining helps prevent rubbing and ensures a comfortable fit—an essential factor during competitions where comfort matters. Take a look at our collection of fleece-lined leg protectors for the best options for sensitive horses.
The rider’s role & additional protection
It is the rider’s responsibility to monitor whether the horse’s tendons are overheating while using protectors. Regularly checking the horse’s legs and ensuring the correct fit of the protectors is vital in preventing injuries.
In addition to fetlock boots and hind leg protectors, you can also opt for pastern wraps. These are rings or bands that fit around the pastern and help reduce the risk of injuries. A must-have for any competitive rider aiming for top performance and safety.
The importance of competition-grade quality
At HorseOnline, we understand that every rider and every horse is unique. That’s why we offer a wide selection of high-quality fetlock boots and hind leg protectors, including the popular Veredus protectors. Our products are carefully selected for their functionality, comfort, and level of protection—so you can choose what’s best for your horse with confidence.
To ensure your horse is fully protected, explore not only our fetlock boots and Veredus hind leg protectors but also our complete leg protection range and all other necessary gear.
