Product Information

Full details

The LeMieux Crystal Cool Water Boots are an essential recovery tool for equestrians seeking an efficient way to manage post-exercise inflammation and support tendon health. Designed for use after schooling, competition, or cross-country efforts, these boots utilize advanced water-reactive crystals to provide sustained cooling relief to the lower leg. While they are highly effective for routine recovery, users should note that they require a dedicated preparation time of at least one hour of soaking before each session to ensure optimal crystal activation.

FAQs

Can I put these boots in the freezer?

No, you should never place the Crystal Cool Water Boots in the freezer as it may damage the reactive crystals.

How long should I leave the boots on the horse?

For the best recovery results, we recommend using the boots for 20 to 30 minute sessions.

Are these boots sold individually?

The boots are sold in pairs.

Can I store them in the fridge?

Yes, you can store the boots wet in the fridge to maintain a chilled temperature, provided you do not freeze them.

Do I need to soak them before every use?

Yes, for optimal cooling, you should soak the boots for at least one hour before each application.

Can these be used on an injured horse?

They are designed for post-exercise recovery and injury support, but you should always consult your veterinarian if symptoms persist or if you have specific concerns.

Troubleshooting

The boots are not holding cold for very long.

Ensure they are being soaked for the full one-hour minimum and consider adding ice to the soaking water.

Surface residue appearing on the fabric.

This is normal during the hydration process; wipe the exterior clean with a damp cloth after the boots have had time to settle.

Boots keep slipping during use.

Ensure the horse is standing square and tighten the hook and loop straps to ensure a snug, anatomical fit around the fetlock.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Efficiently reduces heat build-up in tendons
  • Easy to use with simple water-soaking preparation
  • Secure contoured design stays in place well
  • Reusable, providing a cost-effective recovery solution
  • Customizable intensity by adding ice to the water

Cons

  • Requires a minimum one-hour soak before each use
  • Must be allowed to dry fully before long-term storage
  • Not suitable for use in the freezer
  • Crystals may occasionally leave minor surface residue

Setup, Compatibility & Care

For the initial setup, you must soak the boots for 2 to 4 hours to fully hydrate the crystals for the first time. For ongoing maintenance, simply soak them for one hour in cold water prior to each use. When finished, it is crucial to allow the boots to dry completely in a well-ventilated area before storing them away to prevent mold or odors. While the boots can be kept in the fridge to remain cool, do not place them in the freezer as this can damage the internal structure of the crystals. If you notice minor surface residue on the exterior after use, this is a normal result of the crystalline reaction and can be wiped away with a soft cloth. Always monitor the horse during the initial application to ensure they are comfortable with the weight and cooling sensation of the boots.
