Hoof boots have come such a long way over the past few years, and have now evolved into being an easy to use, affordable and practical option for hoof protection for all horses. The successful use of hoof boots is all down to getting the right fit. So we offer all of our customers support to assure you get the best fit for your horse, including the free use of one of our fitting kits, that consist of several hoof boot shells which allows you to try them to check for the best fit prior to purchase.
We have used many of the different brands of hoof boots with our ever-changing herd of rescue horses over the years, and through this hands on experience with them, we wanted to be able to offer riders the brands and styles that have endured well for us at our centre. So the hoof boots that are available through this site have had to work hard to earn our horses seal of approval and therefore we can highly recommend them.

FLEX HOOF BOOTS
FLEX HOOF BOOTS
Made in Finland by Hoof Care Professionals, our Flex Hoof Boots offer a soft and flexible method of protection for your horse in order to provide maximum shock absorption and superior comfort. The Flexible materials used to make the boot allows the hoof to move unimpeded and as nature intended. They can be used on all terrains from grass, to snow, to gravelled lanes, rocky outcrops and more with the option of adding studs if required to the pre drilled holes in the sole. Being a modular boot, every component of the boot can be replaced individually making them an economical option for extended periods of hoof care and protection for longevity. They have been very well received by the horse loving public all over the world and we absolutely love them here at Natural Horse NZ.

Price is $40 per pair plus shipping of $5.95 for town delivery or $7.50 for rural
Flex Boot Outer Gaiter-Per Pair
This is the black curved part at the rear of the boot shown covering the Neoprene Gaiter.
It keeps the boot in place and holds the neoprene gaiter to prevent rubbing.
These gaiters are replaceable like all other parts of flex boots. Each pair comes with pre-installed rivets so you don't need to buy them separately.
Price is $45 per pair plus shipping of $5.95 for town delivery or $7.50 for rural
Flex Insoles Pads- EVA SOFT
Flex pads are ideal if you need the boot to fit tighter, or your horse's sole or frog needs more stimulation to become stronger. They are useful if your horse needs extra protection on hard rocky ground, or you're rehabilitating after founder, abscess, white line disease or thin sole.
The EVA pads are sold as a pair, are 5.5mm thick and have two firmness options; soft (yellow) which is shown here, and firm (red). The pad will mould into the sole and the inside of the Flex Boot. They stay on very well and help stimulate the sole, frog and back of the foot, therefore strengthening the hoof every step of the way.
Flex pads also make the boots more durable and the boot will stay on even better with pads.
We recommend rinsing the pads after every use in warm water and drying them in a warm place; this helps retain their cushioning properties.
Price is $30 per pair plus shipping of $5.95 for town delivery or $7.50 for rural
Flex Insoles Pads- EVA FIRM
Flex pads are ideal if you need the boot to fit tighter, or your horse's sole or frog needs more stimulation to become stronger. They are useful if your horse needs extra protection on hard rocky ground, or you're rehabilitating after founder, abscess, white line disease or thin sole.

Price is $30 per pair plus shipping of $5.95 for town delivery or $7.50 for rural
Flex Insoles Pads- KEVLAR
KEVLAR Flex Pads are slightly firmer than the soft version of Flex pad EVA.
They have a Kevlar surface to protect the pad against the pressure of the hoof. However it will still not allow for sharp and long hoof walls – those will still act like a razor blade against a soft pad, and will end up breaking the pads and the boots – so don’t forget to trim the hooves regularly, to keep them in good shape.
Just like FlexPad EVA, the FlexPad KEVLAR stays well in place. In fact, the Kevlar surface is a little bit sticky, so the hoof stays in place even better. The pad moulds to the hoof sole, offering beneficial stimulation to the sole and back of the foot.
FlexPad KEVLARs are ideal if you need the boots to fit better, your horse needs more hoof protection, and you ride mainly in dry conditions.
Price is $40 per pair plus shipping of $5.95 for town delivery or $7.50 for rural
Flex Boot Replacement Shell
Replacement shell for Flex Boot. The shell comes with 2 rivets (male and female) that are require to attach the TPU gaiter to the shell.

1 PAIR OF PASTERN STRAP
Available in the above colours in various sizes to suit boot sizes
The pastern strap is designed to help prevent the boot being pulled off due to an overreach, or sucked off when riding through mud. It is not intended to be the primary source of securement.
The strap is made of very strong thermoplastic urethane (TPU) and is designed to stretch when placed under load, so the strap will not affect the horse’s pasterns if secured correctly. It also has a number of holes to provide the correct setting, depending on the thickness of the horse’s pasterns.
To set the strap at the correct length, make sure your horse is standing upright with its legs at 90 degree. Once secured, you should be able to place one finger (large) or two fingers (small) under the straps at the front of the pastern.
