Gaiters for horses

In contrast to bandages, gaiters are made of much harder material and are often used for jumping, eventing and cross-country disciplines. Dressage boots are a bit softer, often have faux fur and are closed with Velcro.

What are the functions of gaiters on horses?

Boots protect your horse's front and back legs. Boots are available in different sizes for horses and ponies. In addition, the gaiters on the hind legs are always slightly larger than on the front legs of the horse. The hard material used in hard-shell gaiters, fetlock gaiters and all-round gaiters protects the horse and pony from knocks and scrapes better than bandages do.

You can get gaiters with either neoprene or lambskin or artificial fur lining. The outer material can be made of plastic, carbon, Kevlar, leather or artificial leather, as well as nylon.

Gaiters as impact protection

Gaiters offer very reliable protection of the horse's leg. They prevent small stones from being thrown at the animal's legs, for example when riding or show jumping, and causing unpleasant pain there. The gaiters also have a stabilizing effect, which relieves the legs. In show jumping, the gaiters are supplemented by so-called fetlock boots on the hind legs. These are shorter than gaiters and only enclose the fetlock of the hind leg. They prevent injuries caused by kicking the legs.

Gaiters as tendon protection

In addition, the gaiters offer good protection for tendons and ligaments. The tendons are extremely stressed when riding. If the strain is too high, the tendons can become inflamed or, in the worst case, tear. If the gaiters are used correctly, they do not pose a problem for the animal. If they are too tight, however, they can cause lasting damage to the horse in the form of blood congestion and pressure damage.

How useful are gaiters for horses?

The sense and nonsense of gaiters has long been discussed. If your horse runs in dressage without touching, it does not necessarily need leg protection. When jumping or in eventing, however, you should protect the leg. Because gaiters have a shock-absorbing effect. If your horse bumps his leg, you can prevent serious damage. Gaiters are also often used when lunging. It is especially necessary if your horse tends to get a little wilder on the lunge. In any case, make sure that the lymph flow is not impaired or that chafing occurs. Because it can have negative health consequences.

Stable boots are not absolutely necessary. Actually, they are only used for horses that are very restless in the box, for example horses that are weaving. Since some of them jump from one leg to the other very quickly, it makes sense to protect the sensitive eyes here.

Transport gaiters can also be found in almost every saddle cupboard. Because especially when driving, many horses have problems balancing themselves correctly. To avoid injuries during loading and while driving, you should use transport gaiters. But make sure that you get your horse used to the transport gaiters before the first ride, if it is not already familiar with them.
