Why Bamboo Shield?

As we are focused on sustainability, we wanted to develop a new green technology that everybody knows. Bamboo is the fastest growing plant in the world that has an enormous tensile strength, helping to avoid penetration of sharp objects while also being naturally anti-bacterial.

The boots are made out of a strong TPU shell with multiple ventilation holes at the tendon area and a larger triangle mesh ventilation. The tendon area is reinforced with our bamboo shield to avoid penetration. Where the horse is flexing, we have added a soft natural rubber piece to avoid any friction. The inside part of the boots is reinforced with an extra layer of TPU to sustain high abrasion.

We have created our own in-house testing machine which creates a force of 80N falling down on a horizontal horse leg with a razor-sharp axe. Our Bamboo Shield horse boots withstand this extreme testing method that cannot be compared with any real impact while riding. The boots are also Rico test approved and RCT certified.

Fabrics & materials

Our Bamboo Shield front boots are made with our highly breathable and well-known 3D Spacer lining used in our 3D spacer turnout boots and horse rugs. They have a robust outer shell made of lightweight yet strong TPU, with an additional bamboo shield insert in the tendon area for optimum protection against impact and penetration of sharp objects, while also being anti-bacterial.

Shape & size

Thanks to the anatomically shaped design, the boots fit nicely around the horse’s leg to give maximum comfort and protection. This allows the horse full freedom of movement to perform at its best. The soft and flexible rubber insert below the joint also improves comfort during movement.

Care instructions

The boots are machine washable at 30°C (no tumble dryer). We advise using a washing bag to avoid scratches caused by the drum. You can also use our boots cleaner, specially developed for TPU boots, to give them a finishing touch and keep them looking like new.
