What do the different Hy Equestrian boots do?
Brushing boots – everyday leg protection
Brushing boots shield the lower leg and fetlock from knocks when one leg brushes against the other during schooling, hacking and turnout. The Hy Equestrian Combi Leather Brushing Boots (from £16.15) pair a hard-wearing outer with a soft lining and three-strap fastening, while the neoprene-lined HyIMPACT Brushing Boots (from £20.35) are an easy-clean everyday option.
Over reach boots – heel and coronet protection
Also called bell boots, over reach boots wrap the hoof to help protect the heel and coronet if a hind foot strikes a front foot. This is the widest part of the range: the pull-on Hy Equestrian Over Reach Boots and HyIMPACT Over Reach Boots start from just £6.08, the HyIMPACT Ringed Over Reach Boots from £7.55 add easier fitting, and the Hy Equestrian Rubber Over Reach Boots from £7.31 are a simple, durable classic.
Tendon & fetlock boots – support for jumping
Tendon boots protect the back of the front leg over fences, while fetlock boots guard the hind fetlock. The HyIMPACT Tendon Boots (from £19.61) offer a hard outer shell with a cushioned lining, and the HyIMPACT Fetlock Boots (from £14.55) or competition-minded Hy Equestrian Armoured Guard Pro Protect Compliant Fetlock Boots (from £26.49) round out a jumping set.
Reflective & fleece-topped boots – seasonal extras
For darker mornings, HyVIZ Reflector Over Reach Boots and the Reflector Over Reach Boots by Hy Equestrian (both from £10.76) help you be seen. For cold weather, the HyIMPACT SnugFit Fleece Topped Over Reach Boots (from £10.69) and Hy Equestrian Ringed Fleece Topped Over Reach Boots (from £9.09) add a softer top edge.

How do I get the fit right?
A boot that is too loose can slip or rub, while one that is too tight can restrict movement. Measure against Hy Equestrian's size guide for each product, check your horse's leg shape, and make sure straps sit firmly without pinching. If you are between sizes or unsure, get in touch and our team will help you choose.
Hy Equestrian boots: frequently asked questions
What are over reach boots for?
Over reach (bell) boots wrap around the hoof to help protect the heel and coronet band if a hind foot strikes a front foot during work or turnout. Hy Equestrian over reach boots start from £6.08.
Do I need brushing boots and tendon boots?
Brushing boots suit everyday schooling and hacking, giving general lower-leg cover. Tendon and fetlock boots are aimed at jumping and eventing, where extra support over fences is helpful. Many riders own both and choose based on the day's work.
How do I choose the right size?
Use the size guide on each product page and measure your horse's leg or hoof as directed. Boots come in options such as Pony, Cob and Full, or Small to X-Large depending on the style. If you are unsure, get in touch and our team will help.
Can horse boots prevent injury?
Well-fitted boots can help reduce the risk of knocks, brushing and over-reach strikes, but they are not a guarantee against injury. They support sensible management rather than replace it. If your horse has a leg concern, speak to your vet first.
How do I clean and care for Hy Equestrian boots?
Most Hy Equestrian boots wipe clean with mild soap and water, then air dry away from direct heat. Avoid harsh chemicals that can degrade neoprene, faux leather or fastenings. Regular cleaning helps them last longer and keeps them comfortable.
Which Hy Equestrian boots are best for winter?
Fleece-topped styles like the HyIMPACT SnugFit Fleece Topped Over Reach Boots (from £10.69) and Hy Equestrian Ringed Fleece Topped Over Reach Boots (from £9.09) add a softer top edge for colder months, and reflective options help with visibility on dark days.
