Overreach Boots for Horses – Protection and Comfort

At DocHorse, you'll find a wide range of overreach boots for your horse. These protectors are essential for safeguarding the hooves, pasterns, and bulbs of the heel against external impact. A horse can strike itself with its hind legs or dislodge its shoes during a sprint in the pasture. With the right overreach boots for horses, you minimize this risk and offer your horse optimal protection.

Which Overreach Boots to Use When?

Our range includes various models: from simple rubber or neoprene overreach boots to innovative, lightweight models made from high-tech materials like carbon. For riders who also value style, there are luxurious leather overreach boots with faux fur.

  • Eskadron overreach boots – from classic rubber to synthetic leather variants with imitation fur.
  • LeMieux overreach boots – stylish, with or without fur, and perfectly combinable with LeMieux brushing boots.
  • Kentucky overreach boots – luxuriously finished, often with artificial sheepskin, and popular among show jumping riders.
  • BR overreach boots – reliable, affordable, and available in various materials.
  • Veredus overreach boots – innovative overreach boots made from high-quality, shock-absorbing materials, available with and without fur.

Overreach Boots for the Pasture and Paddock

For daily use in the pasture or paddock, we recommend basic overreach boots in size XL or XXL made of thick neoprene or rubber. These are soft, protective, and durable. Ensure the overreach boots are high enough to minimize the risk of your horse losing its shoes. A practical example is the Harry's Horse neoprene overreach boots – simple, but very effective.

Overreach Boots for Riding

During riding, you can opt for matching overreach boots that complement your brushing boots, creating a complete set. Models from brands like LeMieux and Kentucky are popular and available with or without fur for extra comfort in the heel bulb area.

Additionally, there are special anti-rotation overreach boots with a button on the inside to prevent them from shifting. For eventing or cross-country, there are extra lightweight models that do not absorb water, thus not becoming too heavy.
