Some time ago, my mare Alina and I discovered cross-country riding for ourselves: water spots, bushes & tree trunks. As an alternative to daily work, nice rides, or jumping training, cross-country riding is simply something very special and really brings horse and rider even closer together.
Still, it was important to me that especially with solid obstacles, different ground conditions, and water, my horse is particularly well protected. I quickly realized that with normal hard shell Brushing Boots, I couldn’t adequately protect my horse’s legs.

The Velcro fasteners keep their promise, and the Brushing Boots don’t absorb water thanks to the layer of perforated synthetic leather, staying nicely light on the horse’s leg without slipping.
Even after several uses under full “bush” conditions, the Brushing Boots still look great. They are extremely easy to clean and truly keep their promise. I recommend these Brushing Boots not only to professional and hobby bush riders but also especially to sensitive horses or riders who worry a lot about their horses’ tendons!
