The design of the Close Contact Turnout Boots What material is used in the Close Contact Boots?

These close-fitting turnout boots are made from perforated neoprene. This helps keep legs cool with their breathable material. They also feature a four way stretch, which is essential. As horses wear these boots in the field, there is a lot of movement involved. For maximum coverage and protection from the elements, the boots extend from below the knee/hock to the coronet band. This means the correct size is essential to ensure the entire lower leg is protected.

Do the Close Contact Turnout Boots also provide protection in the field?

The Close Contact Chaps do provide some protection towards brushing and overreach injuries, but as they are primarily designed to promote good skin health, the material is not too thick to ensure breathability
