Brushing and over-reach boots for horses with a lot of bone

[blackbess78]

I wonder if anyone could help me. I have a 16.1hh Clydesdale X and am struggling to find any brushing or over-reach boots to fit him. He has a lot of bone but relatively short cannon bones. Everything I seem to try are either the perfect length but not wide enough, or the perfect width but far too long.

I have tried Mark Todd 2 Strap Brushing Boots (see http://www.old-dairy-online-saddlery...ive_Boots.html) and they are perfect in length but not wide enough.

I have also tried Mark Todd Exercise Boots (see http://www.old-dairy-online-saddlery...ive_Boots.html) and they are perfect in width, but far too long for him.

If anyone could recommend any brushing and over-reach boots for a horse with a lot of bone I would be most grateful.

You may find that Woof Wear will have what you need.

Woof do most of their boots in MXW (medium extra wide). I haven't tried them yet but was going to get some for my 14.3hh heavy cob with a lot of feather. Worth a try. x

For over-reach i've found premier equine to have the largest - the xxl fitted my shire x clydie:

Shires do XL over reach boots
and Thorowgood (i think i may have spelt that wrong !) do extra wide cob boots!

I use XL over reach boots from Robinsons for my 17hh IDx. They're about the only brand I can find in XL that don't cost the earth - think I paid £7 for a pair. They are just the plain rubber ones with velcro fastenings.

if you want really huge and v good quality padded overreach boots then Gygax (swiss make) are the dogs undercarriage!

For over reach boots try the woof wear kevlar ones, expensive, but seem to fit horses with more bone

Can recommend the woof wear ones as well. They fit my lad when nothing else would.
