Bridging the gap

Hoof Boot Fitting

Hoof boots are a brilliant innovation for supporting horses and ponies transitioning out of shoes, rehabilitating issues such as laminitis, and as added protection to enable comfort during ridden and driven work. They are utilised by endurance riders, show jumpers and happy hackers alike. The best boot is the one that fits your horse well, and by providing sizing and custom fitting services I can make sure that you find the right boots for you and your horse.

Boot fitting

As an independent fitter, I offer a hoof boot fitting service for both trimming clients and non-clients.

Appointments typically take around 1hr and involve a dynamic assessment of the horse's gait, consideration to the purpose of the boots, alongside a fitting using sizing shells. I fit the following brands:

Cavallo (inc mini and Big Foot sizes)

Scoot Boot classic

Scoot Boot Adjust/Theraride

Flex Boots

Equine Fusion

I keep Scootboots in stock which can be purchased on the day for immediate use.

Boot fittings cost £50 (or half price for trimming clients) within 25 miles of LA12 (15p per mile charge applies thereafter)

Custom Scootboot Solutions

As a Registered Scootboot Fitter (RSF), having completed the Hoof Boot Farriers course, I can offer a method of making bespoke modifications to help hard to fit horses, those in between sizes, or horses needing remedial boots.

Customisations can be made onsite for immediate use and start at £25 per pair for basic alterations/optimisations tailored to the horse. External padding and orthotics
