Equi-Tek Tendon Boots

Equi-Tek Tendon Boots are high-performance protective horse boots designed to help protect the horse's lower legs during exercise, particularly when jumping.

The boots feature a moulded thermoplastic outer shell that provides protection against striking injuries, combined with a shock-absorbing neoprene lining to help protect the leg from rubbing.

An anatomical design provides a secure, comfortable fit around the limb, while the V-shaped cut-out at the back of the knee is designed to allow natural flexion and movement when jumping.

Double Velcro fastenings with elasticated ends provide an adjustable fit and secure hold while allowing the boots to remain comfortable during exercise.
