Travel boots are essential for protecting your horse’s legs from knocks and scrapes whilst travelling.
The new Bucas 2020 Boots are made of tough outer nylon fabric and a stay-dry inner lining.
Made with cushioned padding the boots will fully contour to the horse’s legs. Features for a secure fit include three large straps on the front boots, four large straps on the rear boots and elasticated top and bottom straps.
The unique front boots close differently to normal traditional travel boots. The straps fasten forward which means the boots close across the tendons, leaving the back of the knee open for ease of movement, whilst still covering the front of the knee to prevent injury.
The stay-dry lining helps to dry wet legs faster so that by the time you finish your journey home and remove the travel boots your horse’s legs will be dry and comfortable!
The boots are available in Full and Cob in the colours black or navy.
RRP for the 2020 Travel Boots is £125.
