Custom Sporting Boots (Rear)

Protect your horse's hind legs in gear you've designed yourself. Mac Tack Custom Sporting Boots (Rear) are handmade to order from high-quality neoprene, shaped to cradle the back fetlock and shield the tendons through the demanding work where hind legs take the most punishment — lateral movement, tight turns and fast direction changes.

Rear boots sit a little taller and wrap lower around the fetlock than the front pair, giving the strike zone the extra coverage hind legs need when a horse clips itself on an arc or under collection.

• Shock-absorbing neoprene cushions impact and reduces strain on joints and tendons.

• Contoured strike-zone pad for a snug, supportive fit that stays put at speed.

• Four secure Velcro tabs for quick on-and-off and an adjustable hold.

• Breathable and lightweight to keep legs cool through long sessions.

• Easy to clean — simply wipe down after work.

Whether you're training, competing or out on the trails, they're built to safeguard your horse's legs and keep them performing at their best. Sold as a pair for the rear legs.

Every pair is built to your design. Choose your main colour and trim, then pick the colour of each Velcro tab and the stitching individually — mix and match to match your colours, your team or your other Mac Tack gear. The colours shown are just one example.

Cut specifically for the back legs, with a lower fetlock wrap and a reinforced strike zone where hind legs are most prone to interference injuries on turns and in collected work.

When selecting Mac Tack Custom Sporting Boots, ensuring the right size for your horse is crucial to maximize the benefits these boots offer. The provided chart includes measurements for both circumference and height. Emphasizing the circumference is more vital than height since the boot needs to securely fit around the horse's leg with a slight overlap of 1/2" to 1.5" for effectiveness. Factors like the horse's height and bone structure should be considered but not solely relied upon when determining size.

As a general guideline, horses typically require a size larger for hind legs compared to front legs. For example, mature horses can often wear medium boots on the front but large on the hind legs. However, if there's no significant size difference in the fetlocks, the same size can be used for both front and hind legs.

To accurately select the right size, consult the provided chart. If unsure, measure the circumference of your horse's front and rear fetlocks at their widest point. Then, opt for the next larger boot size based on your measurements.
