At Hooves and Paws, we understand that your horse’s longevity depends on superior leg protection. The Professional's Choice SMBII remains the industry’s most trusted horse sports medicine boots, specifically engineered to defend against debilitating impact trauma and suspensory hyperextension. This original design sets the benchmark for 360-degree protection, ensuring your equine athlete stays sound through every gallop, turn, and jump. Performance Benefits & Technical Specifications The SMBII is more than just a boot; it is a scientifically-backed safety system designed for professionals who prioritize equine wellness. Constructed from premium, antimicrobial limestone-based neoprene, these boots provide a cleaner, more durable alternative to traditional petroleum-based products. Clinically Proven Energy Absorption: Featuring the specialized UltraShock™ lining, these impact absorbing horse boots are clinically proven to absorb approximately 26% of energy from hoof impact, shielding the cannon bone and soft tissues from strike injuries. Advanced Equine Suspensory Support: The unique, heavy-duty suspensory strap is designed to cradle the fetlock joint, preventing dangerous hyperextension during high-intensity maneuvers like barrel racing, jumping, or polo. Antimicrobial Limestone Neoprene: This high-quality material naturally resists bacterial growth and remains flexible, ensuring the boots won't crack or crumble over time while maintaining optimal leg hygiene. 360-Degree Shielding: The comprehensive wrap-around design offers total coverage, protecting the entire lower leg structure from every angle of impact. Sizing & Fit Guide Achieving a precise fit is critical for maximizing equine suspensory support and ensuring the boot functions as intended. To find the correct size for your horse, focus on the circumference of the fetlock joint rather than the height of the leg. Key Sizing Tips: The Overlap Rule: For the most secure fit and maximum protection, the boot should overlap between 0.5" and 1.5" around the leg. Front vs. Hind Differences: Please note that most horses require one size larger for their hind legs than their front legs due to differences in bone density and fetlock circumference. Care Instructions To maintain the structural integrity and antimicrobial properties of the limestone-based neoprene, follow these professional maintenance steps: Cleaning: Periodically hand wash or hose off the boots using cold water and a mild detergent to remove dirt and sweat. Drying: Always air dry your boots away from direct sunlight. Do not machine wash or use high-heat dryers, as extreme heat can damage the UltraShock™ lining and the neoprene’s cellular structure.
