When it comes to providing optimum comfort and protection for your horse during various equestrian disciplines, compromising on the quality of boots is simply not an option. Enter the Equilibrium All Sports Boots – a revolutionary product designed to meet the needs of riders across all disciplines, from hacking and schooling to jumping and cross-country. These boots offer a comprehensive range of features that go beyond what traditional brushing boots can provide. In this blog post, we'll delve into the inspiration behind the Tri-Zone All Sports Boots, their unique design, the protection they offer, and how to care for them.
The Inspiration:
The creators of the Tri-Zone All Sports Boots recognized that while brushing boots are commonly used in all disciplines, they primarily offer protection against brushing injuries and are often made from non-breathable neoprene material. To address this limitation, they aimed to develop a boot that could be utilized for any equestrian activity while delivering all-round protection, exceptional comfort, and optimal leg health. The result? The super lightweight, breathable, flexible, and protective All Sports Boots.
Unveiling the Four-Layer Protection:
The All Sports Boots feature a four-layer system, with each layer carefully selected for its unique properties to provide the best possible protection for your horse.
1. Inner Lining:
The first layer is made from perforated EVA (Ethylene-Vinyl Acetate), designed to sit comfortably against your horse's leg. The perforations allow heat to escape, promoting breathability, while the flexible material molds to the contours of the leg, ensuring a secure fit.
2. Nylon Mesh:
Layer two comprises a strong nylon mesh that acts as an additional barrier against debris, preventing it from reaching your horse's leg while maintaining breathability.
3. Internal Guard:
The third layer consists of a vinyl internal guard strategically placed over the vulnerable tendon area. This durable and moisture-resistant material adapts to the leg's shape, allowing for unrestricted movement without the sensation of a restrictive "splint."
4. Outer Layer:
The outer layer is constructed from EVA waffle material, commonly used in the soles of human shoes and sports equipment padding. This layer offers a blend of durability, breathability, and superior protection. Additionally, it is easy to clean and maintain, ensuring long-lasting performance.
