the rules for hind boots in show jumping are particularly strict, partly for animal welfare reasons? Certain hind boots can increase the sensitivity of the hind legs through strong pressure or their design, thereby influencing how high a horse lifts them over a jump. Modern competition rules are therefore intended to ensure that hind boots actually provide protection and are not used as a training aid to alter jumping technique.

What are fetlock boots and show jumping boots used for?

Fetlock boots protect the fetlock area of the hind legs from brushing, interference, and strikes from the opposite leg. Show jumping boots protect the front legs from external injuries caused by brushing, interference, and contact with obstacles.

Why are fetlock boots shorter at the back than show jumping boots at the front?

Fetlock boots specifically protect the area where the hind legs might touch each other during movement or striking. Show jumping boots, on the other hand, protect the front legs more comprehensively against impact and contact with obstacles.

Can fetlock boots and show jumping boots prevent injuries?

They reduce the risk of abrasions, bruising, and other injuries caused by external impacts. The shock-absorbing mesh and padding help to absorb striking forces. However, they cannot completely prevent overuse injuries caused by internal strain.

How should fetlock boots and show jumping boots fit correctly?

Fetlock boots must sit securely on the inside of the hind legs and reliably cover the fetlock area without cutting in or restricting movement. Show jumping boots should fit snugly and evenly against the front leg without cutting in or slipping, and should not restrict the mobility of the joint.

Are the fetlock boots and show jumping boots approved for tournament use?

Yes, both are approved for tournament use and meet the current requirements of the FN. Which equipment is permitted in a specific competition depends on the current equipment catalog and the type of competition. The latest version should be checked before the tournament.
