Kia ora Hank,
I recently bought 2 pairs of scoot boots from you via Trade Me.
They're great. My mare goes really well in them. Trail riding, Pony Club and Mounted Games.

Checking for Optimal Scootboot fit:
Boot up on a dry, clean, soft surface (ie a large rubber mat or piece of carpet). Use only one boot to confirm sizing for both hooves.. When you are ready to boot up:
Ensure front closure straps are undone and the pastern strap is detached from one side on the rear of the boot
Pick up the hoof with the sole facing upwards in the trimming position and slip the toe of the hoof into the boot
Pull the rear of the boot over the bulbs and place the hoof onto the ground
You should be able to fit a finger between the strap and the bulbs. If you cannot do this, you are a size too small. At no time should the strap be placing pressure on the bulbs
The hoof should slip comfortably into the boot
The fit should be snug and not tight or loose
To secure the front closure straps, grip the end of the strap with your thumb and forefinger. Stretch the strap over the knob hook at an angle and slip the elongated hole over the top or bottom edge of the knob hook
When the horse is standing upright, with its legs at 90 degrees, secure the security strap around the pastern and ensure that it is loose enough to be able to place two fingers between the strap and the pastern (at the front of the pastern). It is important the strap is set correctly to perform its function (not loose or not tight)
If you cannot place two fingers between the pastern strap and the pastern, loosen the pastern strap another hole. If the pastern strap is too tight, as the pastern flexes forward, the strap will pull the rear of the boot backwards and forwards over the rear of the hoof and cause rubbing. With the pastern strap set at the correct length this will not occur
Now that you have secured your Scoot Boots you need to ensure you have a snug fit – pick up the hoof and gently twist clockwise and anti clockwise. Your boot should not turn on the hoof.

Super happy with my scoot boots. Was nice being able to have them fitted to make sure they were right for my horse. Thanks

Wow, what a huge difference these have made for my horse while out trekking! I’m so happy to have done the research and purchased scoot boots, the process of finding the right size was made so much easier by using the shells that Henk sent out. Being able to try on all the different sizes and watch the videos made sure we got the right fit.
We have already tested them out through the river, forest trails and road and couldn’t be happier!
