Protect your horse from interference injuries with the ultimate "workhorse" boot designed to stay secure in the toughest conditions. Whether you are navigating deep mud on the cross-country course or perfecting lateral work in the arena, the Toklat Woof Wear Double-Lock Brushing Boots provide the perfect balance of lightweight breathability and heavy-duty impact protection. Engineered with 5.5mm breathable PX closed-cell neoprene, these boots offer a flexible, anatomic fit that supports the cannon bone and fetlock without retaining water or adding unnecessary weight. The technical core of the boot features a recessed-stitched PU strike pad for maximum durability, while the innovative double-lock closure ensures your protection stays exactly where you put it, regardless of the terrain or intensity of your ride. Key Features & Specifications: Double-Lock Security System: Utilizes a specialized two-layer "Touch and Close" Velcro system where a secondary locking strap folds over the primary closure to prevent peeling in deep mud or high-impact scenarios. 5.5mm Breathable PX Neoprene: Perforated closed-cell material promotes airflow to minimize heat buildup and remains lightweight because it does not absorb water from puddles or wet grass. Reinforced PU Strike Pad: Features a hard-wearing, recessed-stitched polyurethane strike pad on the inner leg to shield against "brushing" injuries caused by the opposite hoof. Anatomic Ergonomic Design: Contoured to mold perfectly to the horse's leg, providing a universal fit that works effectively on both front and hind legs for versatile protection. Variable Strap Configuration: Sizes Small and Medium feature two wide straps, while Large and X-Large utilize three straps to ensure stability and proper coverage for taller horses. Extreme Durability: Known to "wear like iron," these boots are designed for daily use and are machine washable at 30°C (86°F) for easy maintenance. Frequently Asked Questions: Q: How do I choose the correct size for my horse's front and hind legs?A: For a standard "Full" size horse, we recommend ordering one size larger for the hind legs (e.g., Medium for the front and Large for the hind) to accommodate the longer and thicker bone structure of the rear legs. Q: Can these boots be used for turnout in wet conditions?A: Yes! Because the PX Neoprene is breathable and does not soak up water, these are a premier choice for turnout. The double-lock straps ensure they stay securely in place even during high-activity play in muddy fields. Q: Are these boots suitable for Cross-Country (XC) use?A: These boots are highly popular for schooling, hacking, and low-level eventing (Beginner Novice/Novice). While they provide excellent interference protection, riders competing over solid timber at higher levels may eventually transition to a hard-shell boot for maximum strike protection.
