FAQs

What makes ARTi-LAGE technology superior?

ARTi-LAGE is a dilatant material that remains soft and flexible during normal movement but instantly hardens upon impact. This provides a unique dual-layer protection system that deflects and disperses energy, offering superior defense without restricting the horse's natural motion.

Are these boots suitable for all equestrian disciplines?

The XC Elite Hind Boots are specifically designed for the demands of cross-country riding due to their high level of impact protection and flexibility. While they offer excellent protection, they may be more than necessary for disciplines requiring less intense impact or speed.

How do I determine the correct size for my horse?

Refer to the Majyk Equipe sizing chart, which typically correlates boot size with measurements of the horse's cannon bone and fetlock. Accurate measurement is key to ensuring a proper fit for optimal protection and comfort.

Can the 'Forever Clean' coating be damaged?

The coating is designed to be durable, but excessive abrasion from rough surfaces or improper cleaning methods (like using harsh chemicals or abrasive scrubbers) could potentially diminish its effectiveness over time. Gentle cleaning and care are recommended.

Are these boots sold individually or as a pair?

The Majyk Equipe XC Elite Hind Boots are sold in pairs, providing protection for both hind legs.

What is the main difference between hind and front boots?

Hind boots are generally designed to offer more robust protection against impacts from behind, such as from the horse's own hind legs or obstacles encountered during gallops. Front boots are typically designed for protection against impacts from the front, such as from jumps.

Will the bio-foam interior retain moisture?

The bio-foam interior is designed to be breathable and to wick away moisture. Its unique construction aims to prevent heat buildup and keep the horse's legs as dry and comfortable as possible during strenuous activity.

Troubleshooting

Boots appear to be slipping down the leg.

Ensure the adjustable straps are secured firmly and evenly. Check that the boot size is appropriate for the horse's leg; an oversized boot may not stay in place. Re-evaluate the fit to ensure the bio-foam interior is making good contact.

Horse seems uncomfortable or rubs after wearing boots.

Verify the boot size is correct and not too tight. Ensure the bio-foam interior is clean and free of debris. Check that no foreign objects are trapped between the boot and the leg. Allow the horse a break from wearing the boots and reintroduce them gradually.

Difficulty cleaning despite 'Forever Clean' coating.

For dried mud, try soaking the affected area with water before attempting to wipe or rinse. Use a soft brush for any persistent dirt. Ensure you are rinsing thoroughly after any use of mild soap.

Straps feel too short or too long.

This likely indicates an incorrect boot size. Refer to the sizing guide and consider exchanging for a different size that allows for a proper strap adjustment without excess slack or tension.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Offers advanced, dual-layer impact protection with ARTi-LAGE.
  • Designed to flex with the horse's movement, avoiding restriction.
  • Lightweight construction reduces fatigue and heat buildup.
  • Easy to clean exterior saves time and effort.
  • Provides a secure and comfortable fit for the horse.
  • High durability suitable for elite competition.

Cons

  • Premium price point may be a barrier for some riders.
  • Requires specific attention to ensure correct sizing for optimal performance.
  • May be overkill for casual hacking or less demanding disciplines.
  • ARTi-LAGE effectiveness relies on proper boot placement and fit.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Ensure the boots are the correct size for your horse's hind legs. Place the boot onto the leg, ensuring the strike plate is positioned correctly over the cannon bone and fetlock area. Secure the adjustable straps firmly but not so tightly as to restrict circulation. The straps should allow for a snug fit that prevents the boot from moving.

Compatibility: These boots are specifically designed for the hind legs of horses participating in cross-country disciplines. They are intended for use during training and competition. Ensure compatibility with your horse's individual leg conformation; the unique fit is designed not to inhibit movement, but proper sizing is crucial.

Care: The "Forever Clean" coating significantly simplifies cleaning. After use, rinse the boots thoroughly with water to remove mud, dirt, and debris. For more stubborn marks, a mild soap and water solution can be used, followed by a rinse. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaning tools. Allow the boots to air dry completely away from direct heat or sunlight before storing. Check straps and stitching periodically for any signs of wear.
