Shires ARMA Air Motion Brushing Boots - Breathable 3D Mesh Shock Absorbent Horse Leg Protection

Give your horse the ultimate edge in comfort and safety with boots that breathe as hard as they work. The Shires ARMA Air Motion Brushing Boots eliminate the risk of overheating while providing a robust shield against strike injuries, ensuring every stride is confident and cool.

Engineered with revolutionary Air Motion technology, these boots utilize a honeycomb-structured 3D fabric that actively circulates air to draw heat and moisture away from the leg. Unlike traditional neoprene that traps heat, the ARMA Air Motion system maintains a cooling microclimate, paired with toughened strike-resistant pads that offer superior shock absorption for daily schooling, flatwork, or high-intensity summer workouts.

Key Features & Specifications:

• Advanced 3D Air Motion Mesh: Features a unique honeycomb structure that creates a cooling microclimate, drawing heat and moisture away to prevent leg overheating during intense exercise.
• Toughened Strike-Resistant Pads: Integrated inner patches provide high-level shock absorption and a physical barrier against "brushing" or knocks from the opposite hoof.
• Compression-Resistant Fabric: The high-tech mesh is designed to maintain its protective cushioning and shape even under the heavy pressure of movement and impact.
• Size-Specific Stability: Engineered for a secure fit with 2 touch-close straps on Pony/Cob sizes and 3 straps on Full/Extra Full sizes to ensure maximum stability on longer cannon bones.
• Anatomically Formed Fit: Contoured to the horse's leg to prevent slipping and rubbing, allowing for a full range of motion without restriction during schooling.
• Machine Washable Maintenance: Designed for the busy equestrian, these boots are incredibly easy to clean and can be machine washed on a cool cycle to maintain their pristine condition.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Q: How do I choose the right size for my horse?
A: These boots are known for a generous fit in both height and width. We recommend the "Size Down" rule; if your horse usually wears a Full, consider a Cob, and always measure the cannon bone height to ensure the boot doesn't interfere with the knee or fetlock joint.

Q: Are these boots suitable for horses that "interfere" or strike themselves?
A: Absolutely. The ARMA Air Motion boots are specifically designed for horses that are "close behind" or clumsy, providing a durable, strike-resistant barrier that absorbs impact and prevents painful strike marks during daily work.

Q: Can these boots be used in hot weather?
A: Yes, they are the ideal choice for warm-weather riding. The 3D mesh is significantly more breathable than traditional boots, preventing the heat build-up that can lead to tendon stress.
