Suspensory Sling Support: Engineered with a heavy-duty lower-limb sling that cradles the fetlock to prevent overextension during intense performance and speed events. Shock-Absorbing Neoprene: Constructed from premium, lightweight neoprene that absorbs concussive energy while the laminated jersey lining ensures a snug, non-slip fit. Ergonomic Bound Edges: Features precision-finished edges that seal securely against the leg to keep out abrasive sand, dirt, and arena debris that cause rubbing. Weight-Based Sizing: Available in Small (under 900 lbs), Medium (900–1,100 lbs), and Large (over 1,100 lbs) to ensure a perfect, anatomically scaled fit for any horse.

Quick-Wrap Application: Designed for efficiency with a user-friendly hook-and-loop system that allows for fast application and removal for busy trainers and owners.Frequently Asked Questions:Q: How do I determine the correct size for my horse?A: To ensure the best fit, measure the circumference of the cannon bone midway between the knee and fetlock. Small fits a 7.25"–7.75" bone (under 900 lbs), Medium fits a 7.75"–8.25" bone (900–1,100 lbs), and Large fits an 8.25"–8.75" bone (over 1,100 lbs). Generally, if your horse wears a Medium in the front, they will also require a Medium for the hind legs.Q: Can these boots be used for both Western and English disciplines?A: Yes! While they are a staple in the Western performance world for their lateral support in Barrel Racing and Roping, their lightweight flexibility and ability to seal out debris make them an excellent choice for Jumping, Dressage schooling, and even rugged trail riding.Q: What is the best way to clean and maintain these boots?A: To maintain the integrity of the neoprene, we recommend spraying them down with cold water or soaking them in a mild detergent after use. Avoid machine washing; simply rinse thoroughly and lay them flat to air dry away from direct sunlight.Item Number/SKU: CF100CHRS
