FAQs

Are these boots suitable for riding?

No, the Premier Equine Air-Technology Knee Pro-Tech Travel Boots are specifically designed for use during transportation only and are not intended for ridden exercise.

How do I determine the correct size?

Refer to the manufacturer's sizing chart, typically based on measurements of your horse's leg circumference. Proper fit is crucial for both comfort and protection.

What makes the Knee Pro-Tech system special?

The Knee Pro-Tech system features high-rise, layered shockproof protection engineered to offer advanced defense to the vulnerable knee area during travel impacts.

Can these boots be used on horses with sensitive skin?

Yes, the soft, moisture-wicking jersey lining is designed to enhance comfort and is ideal for horses with sensitive skin as it draws away sweat and dries quickly.

How many boots are included in a set?

A set includes four boots: two designed for the front legs and two designed for the hind legs.

How often should I clean the boots?

It is recommended to clean the boots after each use by brushing off dirt. A hand wash with mild soap and cool water should be done as needed, followed by thorough air drying.

What is the main benefit of the Air-Technology outer?

The Air-Technology outer is made from perforated, shockproof materials that offer excellent breathability, helping to keep your horse's legs cool and reduce the risk of overheating during travel.

Troubleshooting

Boots slipping down the leg

Ensure the Velcro straps are securely fastened and tightened evenly. Check that the boot is the correct size for your horse's leg. Make sure the leg is clean and dry before application.

Horse seems uncomfortable or rubs the boots

Verify that the boots are not too tight, especially around the pastern area. Check for any internal seams or debris causing irritation. Ensure the lining is clean and dry.

Straps not holding securely

Inspect the Velcro for wear and tear. Clean the Velcro surface gently with a brush to remove debris. If excessively worn, consider replacement.

Excessive heat build-up

While designed for breathability, ensure the horse's legs are clean and dry before applying. Avoid prolonged use in extremely hot conditions if possible. Ensure the 'Air-Technology' perforations are not blocked by mud or debris.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup:

  1. Identify the front and hind boots (typically marked or shaped differently).
  2. Position the boot around the horse's leg, ensuring the knee protection aligns with the knee joint.
  3. Secure the wrap-around Velcro straps firmly but not so tight as to restrict circulation. Ensure the straps lay flat.
  4. Adjust all straps for a snug, even fit. The boots should not slip down or bunch up.

Compatibility:

These boots are designed for use during horse transportation only. They are compatible with most standard horse trailers and lorries. Ensure sufficient clearance within the trailer to prevent the boots from snagging.

Care:

  • Clean after each use. Brush off loose dirt and debris.
  • Hand wash with cool water and a mild soap if necessary. Rinse thoroughly.
  • Allow boots to air dry completely away from direct heat or sunlight before storing.
  • Do not machine wash or tumble dry.
