Stable and Training Bandages & Underpads

Bandages for your horse offer optimal protection and support for your horse's legs. Whether you choose riding bandages, stable bandages, underbandages, or underpads: each type has its own function. During training, fleece or combi-bandages provide support and protection, while stable bandages help prevent fluid retention. For transport, use elastic bandages with underpads, and for horses needing extra support, there are therapeutic underbandages.

At DocHorse, you'll find a wide range from top brands such as Kentucky, Back on Track, and Cal Rei.

Bandages for horses – protection, support, and comfort

At DocHorse, you'll find an extensive range of bandages for horses, underbandages, underpads, and stable bandages from top brands such as Kentucky, Back on Track, and Cal Rei. Bandages are used to protect your horse's legs from external influences, provide support, and distribute pressure evenly. Depending on the use, you choose training bandages, stable bandages, or therapeutic underpads.

Bandaging a horse – during training

During training, training bandages protect the legs from striking and provide extra support to the fetlock. Popular choices include:

  • Fleece bandages – soft, strong, and ideal for riding.
  • Combi-bandages – fleece bandages with integrated underpad for extra convenience.
  • Cal Rei breathable bandages – 100% air-permeable, so the legs do not get too warm.

Advantages of bandages during training:

  • Fit snugly and evenly, ideal for horses with splints or atypical leg shapes.
  • Offer more support than tendon boots, suitable for heavier exercises.
  • Disadvantage: the legs get warmer, so good cooling after riding is important.

Stable bandages and transport bandages

Stable bandages and underbandages are used in the stable or during transport:

  • Acrylic or elastic bandages – always in combination with an underpad or underbandage to distribute pressure evenly.
  • Prevent fluid retention and swollen legs by providing counter-pressure.
  • Suitable for use during the night, provided the temperature under the bandages does not rise too high.

For extra support, we also have therapeutic stable bandages and underpads. These are made of special materials that stimulate blood circulation and promote recovery.

Why choose bandages and underpads?

  • Protect against chafing, striking, and wounds.
  • Offer extra support to the tendons and fetlock.
  • Underpads and underbandages distribute pressure and prevent pressure points.
  • Ideal for training, transport, and stable use.
  • Available in functional and therapeutic versions.
