Frequently Asked Questions:

Q: Should I use the heat or cold setting for my horse?
A: Cold therapy is best for acute injuries, new swelling, or post-exercise recovery to reduce inflammation. Heat therapy is ideal for chronic issues like arthritis or stiff muscles to encourage blood flow and improve mobility before exercise.

Q: Will these boots fit a large Warmblood or a smaller Thoroughbred?
A: Yes! The "One Size" design utilizes highly adjustable touch-close straps and flexible neoprene, allowing the boots to contour securely to various leg diameters and heights for a customized fit.
