FAQ
Q: How do I determine the correct size for my horse's front boots?
A: Measure the circumference of your horse's cannon bone and fetlock area. Refer to the manufacturer's sizing chart, which typically correlates these measurements to boot sizes (e.g., S, M, L) or specific inch ranges.
Q: Can these boots be used for everyday turnout or only for ridden work?
A: These boots are primarily designed for ridden work where impact and abrasion are higher risks. For everyday turnout, consider specific turnout boots designed for all-day wear and protection against pasture hazards.
Q: How should I clean and maintain these fleece-lined boots?
A: Brush off excess dirt after use. For cleaning, hand wash with mild soap and cold water, or machine wash on a gentle cycle if recommended by the manufacturer. Ensure they are completely dry before storing or using again to prevent mildew.
