Cavallo's well-known hoof boots, also called barefoot shoes, are a pair of innovative, easy-to-put-on and take-off horse shoes that provide effective protection for the unshod hoof against hard and abrasive surfaces, as well as ice and slippery conditions. In other words, Cavallo Hoof Boots have similar properties to regular iron shoes, but with the difference that they can be put on and taken off at any time. They are ideal when your unshod horse needs to walk a long distance on hard ground or if it simply has extra sensitive soles. The hoof boots are also suitable for use in cases of laminitis or other hoof problems, or as a temporary solution when your horse has lost a shoe.
This particular variant is called CLB, which stands for Cute Little Boot. The model is specially designed to fit the smallest horses, whether it's a pony with small hooves or a miniature horse. The CLB is made with a durable nylon upper and a molded TPU sole. Regular Sole means that they are designed to fit a round hoof. If your pony has a more oval-shaped hoof, the CLB Slim Sole is also available.
The barefoot shoes are easily slipped over the hoof and then fastened with convenient, replaceable Velcro straps. The hoof boots should have a tight and close fit that follows the horse's hoof, fitting both right and left sides, as well as both front and hind hooves. Sold in pairs.
