4 Layers of Protection
The boot design uses a four-layer system. The first layer provides an inner lining for the horse and sits comfortably against the leg. It is perforated and cushioned.
Layer two is a strong mesh. This adds another layer of protection to the sports boots but also stops any debris from making its way into the boot towards your horse’s leg.
Layer three is the internal guard. This layer is placed over the vulnerable tendon area and is made with strips of material to allow it to mold around the horse’s leg. This allows the horse to move freely without the feeling of a ‘splint’.
Lastly, the outer layer provides a durable, breathable, and attractive material. We’ve made sure this material is easy to clean and maintain too!
Testing
The AllSport Boots are designed to meet the needs of the everyday rider to the top international competitor, these boots are tested by an independent safety testing laboratory to check their ability to protect against concussion and penetration injuries. The boot testing also includes breathability, flexibility, and weight testing too. In fact, these horse sports boots are so light they even float on water. See the boot testing tab for more information.
Heat and Breathability
Allsport boots have gone through extensive testing to ensure they allow heat to escape efficiently to reduce the risk of tissue damage
Weight
Adding even small amounts of weight to the end of the leg in the form of a boot significantly increases the effort the horse must make to run and can also alter the stride characteristics. Some boots can double in weight if the horse is being exercised in the rain, on wet ground, or going through water. This can seriously affect stamina and performance. AllSports are designed and tested to minimize water absorption and excess weight but without compromising on protection.
