Ideally suited for:
- horses that tend to forge or overreach and need extra protection around the heel area
- training sessions in dressage, jumping, cross-country, or on the paddock and pasture
- young or unbalanced horses that still bring their hind hooves close to the front hooves
- horses with shod hooves where the coronet band should be especially protected
- horses that are more likely to forge when loading, lunging, or in tight spaces
Tip: If you want to prevent your horse from pulling off shoes, or if your horse tends to step into the front hooves from behind, you can intentionally choose the bell boots one size larger so they sit lower and protect better.
These neoprene bell boots were developed to reliably protect sensitive areas such as the heels and coronet band from overreaching, forging and external impacts. Especially with horses that move close behind or work actively in intensive training sessions, injuries around the back of the hoof can happen quickly. The shock-absorbing neoprene construction cushions contact and reduces the risk of abrasions or painful heel injuries. At the same time, the bell boots remain flexible enough not to restrict the horse’s natural movement. Thanks to the water-repellent surface, they do not soak up moisture and keep their lightweight feel even on wet ground or out on the trails. Made from 100% recycled material, they combine functional hoof protection with a more conscious use of resources. This gives you durable, easy-care bell boots that reliably support your horse in training, on pasture, or in the arena.
-
Protect the heels and coronet band – developed for sensitive areas: The back of the hoof is particularly prone to injuries caused by forging or overreaching. The bell boots wrap protectively around the heels and coronet band and absorb impacts before they can lead to abrasions or serious injuries. This provides more safety with every step. You can also deliberately choose one size larger so the bell boots extend lower over the hoof edge and additionally reduce the risk of pulling off shoes.
-
Versatile use – flexible for everyday routines: Whether in dressage training, jumping, out on the trails, or during turnout – bell boots are a true all-rounder in daily stable life. They protect the heels and coronet band wherever tight turns, dynamic movement, or uneven ground increase the risk of injury. They also provide extra protection on the paddock or pasture. During transport, bell boots can be useful as well, as they protect sensitive hoof areas from knocks in tight spaces. Even in the stall, for example with minor injuries or a sensitive coronet band, they can serve as additional protection against further irritation.
-
100% recycled material – made responsibly: The bell boots are made entirely from recycled material. This means you are choosing functional hoof protection while also supporting resource-saving production, without compromising on stability or durability.
-
Shock-absorbing neoprene – cushioning and flexible: Neoprene is an elastic, impact-dampening material that is especially suited to cushioning pressure and impact. If a hoof makes contact during overreaching or forging, the neoprene spreads the force and reduces direct stress on the heels and coronet band. At the same time, the material remains soft and flexible, adapting to the horse’s natural movement and never feeling stiff or restrictive. This gives your horse reliable protection without limiting freedom of movement.
-
Water-repellent – ideal for changeable conditions: Thanks to their water-repellent properties, the bell boots absorb very little moisture. They stay pleasantly light and keep their shape, even in rain, on wet footing, or out on the trails.
-
Machine washable – easy care for everyday use: After intensive training sessions, the bell boots can be cleaned easily at 30°C. This saves time and ensures they are quickly hygienic and ready to use again.
-
Strong hook-and-loop fastener – secure fit during movement: The robust hook-and-loop fastener makes them easy to put on while ensuring a firm hold. Even during dynamic movement, the bell boots stay reliably in place.
Did you know that… injuries in the heel area often happen due to slight overreaching that can go unnoticed during training? Especially with young or keen horses, reliable hoof protection can absorb minor contacts before they lead to longer training breaks.
