While the Standard size fits most horses (15.2hh to 16.1hh) on the front legs, we recommend sizing up to Large for hind legs or for larger-boned warmbloods to ensure full coverage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: How can I maximize the cooling effect during a therapy session?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: For professional-grade results, wet your horse's legs with cold water before application to help the cold penetrate the hair coat more effectively. Apply the boots for the recommended 20–30 minutes post-workout to \"heat-sink\" the tendons and prevent inflammatory damage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eItem Number\/SKU:\u003c\/strong\u003e IB100-BLA\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Professional's Choice","offers":[{"title":"Standard 3x5","offer_id":42250562797789,"sku":"IB100-BLA","price":106.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Large 4x6","offer_id":42250562830557,"sku":"IB200-BLA","price":123.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0619\/8748\/7965\/files\/optimized_d446e9a0-4b2a-499b-9939-7c60df37f82d.webp?v=1767038097","url":"https:\/\/hoovesandpaws.com\/products\/ice-boot-3x5-standard-black","provider":"Hooves and Paws","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
