Professional's Choice Black Hock Ice Boot - Standard Size for Targeted Equine Cold Therapy & Recovery

Keep Your Horse Sound and Comfortable with the Professional's Choice Black Hock Ice Boot Standard

After a long day in the arena or out on the trail, your horse’s hocks often carry the heaviest load. The Professional's Choice Black Hock Ice Boot Standard is the gold standard for therapeutic cooling, specifically designed to target the complex hock joint and pull out the heat that leads to inflammation and long-term wear.

Built for the long haul, these boots combine durable construction with advanced cooling technology. From our barn to yours, we know that recovery is just as important as the ride itself. Whether you are managing a chronic condition like arthritis or simply want to ensure your equine partner recovers quickly after a strenuous workout, these boots provide the professional-grade relief your horse deserves.

Why Your Horse Needs This Hock Boot

• Extended Cooling Time: The heavy-duty neoprene exterior acts as a high-performance insulator, keeping the internal gel pockets colder for significantly longer than standard wraps.
• Protects Sensitive Skin: A smooth, tissue-safe nylon lining prevents "ice burn" and ensures that hair, shavings, and barn debris won't stick to the boot during use.
• Contours to the Joint: Featuring 15 individual gel pockets in a 3x5 grid, this boot remains flexible even when frozen to wrap perfectly around the hock's unique shape.
• Secure, No-Slip Fit: Three adjustable elasticized hook-and-loop straps allow you to customize the compression and ensure the boot stays exactly where you put it, even if your horse shifts in the crossties.

Best For

Performance riders and horse owners looking for an effective way to manage hock heat, reduce post-exercise inflammation, and support injury rehabilitation.
