Integrated Reinforced Stays: Sewn-in vertical supports ensure the boots maintain their shape and stay securely in place, preventing sagging, slouching, or bunching during movement. Soft Neoprene Bottom Lining: A padded lower rim prevents painful rubs on the sensitive pastern and bulb area, making these ideal for 24/7 turnout. Height-Based Sizing: Available in Small (13.2–14.1 hands), Medium (14.2–15.2 hands), and Large (15.3–17 hands) to provide a precise fit for ponies to large hunters. Secure Hook and Loop Closures: Features wide, high-grip fasteners that allow for effortless application and a customizable fit that stays put in the pasture or stall. Botfly Prevention: The dense mesh weave creates a physical barrier that stops botflies from depositing eggs on the legs, reducing grooming time and health risks. Reduces Joint Stress: By eliminating insect harassment, these boots significantly reduce "fly stomping," which prevents chipped hooves and unnecessary strain on the hocks and knees.Frequently Asked Questions:Q: How do I ensure I choose the correct size for my horse?A: Sizing is primarily height-based: Small (13.2–14.1 hh), Medium (14.2–15.2 hh), and Large (15.3–17 hh). If your horse has heavy bone, thick feathering, or falls at the top end of a height range, we recommend sizing up to ensure the hook-and-loop fasteners overlap securely.Q: Will these boots slide down or lose their shape over time?A: Unlike standard fly boots, the Professional’s Choice Deluxe model features integrated vertical stays. These supports act as a skeleton for the mesh, ensuring the boots stay upright and provide consistent coverage from the knee to the hoof without sagging.Item Number/SKU: FBD050-CHA
