For horses that tend to tear their shoes or injure their heel bulbs in competition and training, but also for all the other horses, Veredus recommends using overreach boots to be applied on the front hooves of the horse to protect it from injuries caused by the hind hooves. The line includes Safety Bell boots for the protection of the heel bulbs during training and competition. The Safety Bells are made from neoprene, which is known for being durable, washable and water repellent. Heel bulb protection is particularly important in competition, where exceptional performance is required of the horse. The Carbon Shield overreach boot guarantees a unique protection effectiveness together with highly effective performance features.
