Description
Waldhausen Comfort Line Travelling Boots - Full-Leg Transport Protection, Set of 4
The Waldhausen Comfort Line Travelling Boots are a set of four anatomically shaped horse travel boots that protect the legs from knocks, treads and rubs during transport. They are best for owners hauling to shows, lessons, clinics or the vet who want quick-to-fit, high-cut protection with fleece comfort against the coat.
Each boot combines 1.5cm shock-absorbing foam padding with a hard-wearing outer and heel reinforcement, and fastens with three strong velcro straps for a secure hold on the leg. Browse more horse boots to complete your travelling kit.

How to Use
- Make sure the legs are clean and dry, and brush away mud or grit that could rub under the boot.
- Position the boot so the padding sits over the leg and the lower edge covers the coronet band without touching the ground.
- Fasten the middle strap first to hold the boot in place, then the top and bottom straps.
- Tighten each velcro strap evenly - firm enough that the boot cannot slip, loose enough to slide a finger underneath.
- Walk the horse a few steps before loading and re-check the fastenings.
- Remove the boots after the journey, brush off dirt and hair, and allow them to air dry.
FAQ
How many boots are in the set?
Four boots are supplied, covering both front and hind legs.
How thick is the padding?
The shock-absorbing foam padding on the inside of each boot is 1.5cm thick.
What size travelling boots do I need?
Measure from just below the knee on the front leg, and from the point of hock on the hind leg, down to the floor, then compare with the size chart. The boot should cover the coronet band without dragging on the ground. Wrong length is the most common reason travelling boots are returned.
Are these boots suitable for ponies as well as horses?
Yes, provided you choose the size that matches the leg measurement. Cobs, warmbloods and ponies all travel in boots of this style, so check the measurement rather than assuming by breed type.
How do I clean travelling boots?
Brush off dried mud and hair, close the velcro fastenings before washing so they do not clog with hair, and dry naturally away from direct heat.
Can they be used for turnout or ridden work?
No. Travelling boots are designed for transport and short periods of standing, not for schooling, turnout or ridden exercise.
