Shires Tubbease Sole Insert - Shock-Absorbing EVA Hoof Cushion & Support - Multiple Sizes

Give your horse immediate relief from the debilitating pain of laminitis, abscesses, or thin soles with the ultimate therapeutic cushioning. These inserts transform the Tubbease Hoof Sock into a high-performance recovery tool, ensuring your equine partner stays comfortable and supported during critical stall rest.

Crafted from high-density, shock-absorbing EVA (ethylene-vinyl acetate), the Shires Tubbease Sole Insert provides a robust barrier against hard ground while significantly reducing impact on sensitive internal structures. For a truly bespoke fit, these inserts are heat-mouldable; by soaking them in hot water (~60°C) before application, the material conforms perfectly to your horse’s unique hoof shape, providing targeted support exactly where it is needed most during the healing process.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Q: Can I use the Tubbease Sole Insert while my horse is being ridden or turned out in a large pasture?
A: No, these inserts are designed strictly for therapeutic use in "confined" environments such as stables or small pens. They are intended to aid in the recovery of medical conditions like thrush or abscesses and are not suitable for the high-impact stress of riding or active turnout.

Q: How do I ensure I am ordering the correct size for my horse?
A: Sizing is based on the widest part of the hoof (either width or length). To simplify the process, the inserts are color-coded to match the Tubbease Hoof Socks: Pink (110mm), Red (140mm), Blue (160mm), Orange (165mm), and Yellow (175mm). Always match the insert diameter to the internal diameter of your sock.
