Product Details
Leg protection has one core job: absorb and deflect impact before it reaches the tendons, cannon bone, and coronary band. This 4-piece set gives you the complete picture — front tendon boots and matching hind bell boots in a single purchase, so your horse's legs are covered front and back in a coordinated set.
The shell is formed from a hard PU panel that wraps the front and sides of the cannon bone. PU is the right choice here: it's rigid enough to deflect a hoof clip or fence pole on contact, but light enough that it doesn't fatigue the horse over a long jumping session. The shell's high-gloss finish repels mud and wipes clean after a cross-country round — a genuine quality-of-life advantage over fabric boots that hold grime in the weave.
The EVA foam lining sits between the shell and the horse's leg. EVA is a closed-cell foam: it doesn't absorb sweat or water, it doesn't compress permanently, and it distributes the shell's contact across the leg rather than concentrating pressure at the hardware fixings. The foam is thick enough to be protective without adding bulk that would restrict the horse's movement or trap heat.
Closure is a single-width velcro strap on the tendon boots and a velcro tab on each bell boot. Velcro fastenings are faster to fit than traditional figure-eight wrap systems and maintain even tension without the creep you can get from older elastic arrangements. The boots go on cleanly and come off cleanly — important when time is short in a warm-up ring.
The bell boots sit over the coronary band and heel to prevent overreach injuries — the most common source of leg wounds in jumping horses. The PU shell construction means they hold their shape under impact rather than collapsing inward.
Available in Navy, Electric Blue, Black, White/Grey, Red, Dark Grey, and more. Three sizes to fit horses 1.30–1.65m (approximately 13–17hh): M for 1.30–1.40m, L for 1.40–1.55m, XL for 1.55–1.65m. Wipe clean with a damp cloth after use.

Really impressed with these. My mare had a habit of overreaching that was causing small nicks behind the coronary band and these have stopped it completely — the bell boot shell is solid and fits snugly without rotating. The tendon boots are smart-looking too, and they've held up without any velcro issues so far. Good set for the money.
Bought these in navy and they look great in the arena. The shell is genuinely hard — you can feel it would actually deflect a knock rather than just looking the part. Fitting is fast once you know the sizing, and the EVA lining means my gelding doesn't seem to mind wearing them at all. Much better quality than I expected at this price.
Solid set — the bell boots fit my warmblood cross perfectly in XL and the tendon boots sat flat with no gapping. Velcro is strong and hasn't peeled after several sessions. I knocked a star off only because the white colour picks up arena dirt quickly, but that's a cosmetic thing and they wipe off easily enough. Would buy again.
