The Boa Horse Boot is the first horse boot to use
materials and technology previously found only in modern athletic shoes
and snowboard boots. Hi-tech materials and manufacturing techniques,
combined with the unique Boa lacing System, make the Boa Horse Boot the
most advanced horse boot ever.
The Boa Lacing System makes Boa Horse Boots easy to put on and take off,
and micro adjustments inherent to the closure allow the boot to fit
snugly.
Development of The Boa Horse Boot focused on three main objectives:
multiple uses, protection and retention, and a quick and easy
application.
First, the Boa Horse Boot provides excellent hoof protection for both
occasional and everyday riding (though we do not recommend this boot for
endurance riding) for the barefoot horse. It can also be used in the
correction and treatment of founder, navicular disease, punctures,
abscesses, bruises, contracted heels and other impact caused injuries.
The boot also provides protection during trailering, breeding and is a
quick fix for the occasional lost shoe.
Second, the Boa Horse Boot has been designed to protect and remain on
the hoof during aggressive riding conditions. It provides protection to
the frog, sole, hoof wall, hairline and bulb area. |
And finally, we focused on a quick and easy application. Many of the
current hoof boots require tools and strength during application and
removal. The Boa Lacing SystemTM allows the Boa Horse Boot to open large
enough to accommodate the wide base of a hoof, allowing for quick
application without strength or force. After the hoof is placed in the
boot, the Boa Lacing System quickly tightens with a turn of the dial.
Removing the boot is simple: pull the dial. the lace tension releases
and the Boa Horse Boot is easily slipped off the hoof. Sold in pairs.

The Boa Horse Boot™ has been developed with three main objectives:
Multiple Uses. The Boa Horse Boot™ provides excellent hoof protection for
both occasional and everyday riding for the barefoot horse, but can also be used
in the correction and treatment of founder, navicular disease, punctures,
abscesses, bruises, contracted heels and other impact caused injuries. It also
provides protection during trailering, breeding and a quick fix for the
occasional lost shoe. We do not recommend this boot for endurance riding.
Ultimate Protection & Retention. The Boa Horse Boot™ has been designed to
protect and remain on the hoof during aggressive riding conditions. The Boa
Horse Boot™ provides protection to the frog, sole, hoof wall, hairline and bulb
area.
Quick and Easy Application. Many of the current hoof boots require tools and
strength during application and removal. The Boa Lacing System™ is used on the
Boa Horse Boot™ as the primary closure system. The Boa Lacing System™ allows the
Boa Horse Boot™ to open large enough to accommodate the wide base of a hoof,
allowing for quick application without strength or force. After the hoof is
placed in the Boa Horse Boot™, the Boa Lacing System™ quickly tightens with a
turn of the dial. Removing the Boa Horse Boot™ is simple: pull the dial, the
lace tension releases and the Boa Horse Boot™ is easily slipped off the hoof.
Caring for your Boa Horse Boots
Properly cared for, a pair of Boa Horse Boots will last for years. In general,
to care for your boots, there are three steps to follow: cleaning, drying, and
conditioning.
Cleaning: On a regular basis, brush away surface dirt with a soft brush. After
extended, rugged use, wash with mild soap and warm water. Be sure to rinse all
soap off before drying.
Drying: Open boot fully, dry at room temperature. Never expose to heat!
Conditioning: Recommended treatment for top Grain Leather: NikWax Paste Wax.
