Cavallo Trek Replacement Closure

The Cavallo Trek Hoof Boots are extremely lightweight and durable. Featuring rust proof metals, waterproof threads, and a high performance TPU outsole, the sole absorbs shock over a variety of terrains and provides cushioning to the bar, sole, and frog. The moulded back-flap offers maximum bulb protection and the slim boots are 1/4 inch narrower than the regular fit. Measuring and Fitting your Cavallo Hoof Boots is SIMPLE: 1) Measure the hoof carefully just AFTER A FRESH TRIM 2) Measure the length from the heel buttress line to the toe. Do NOT include heel bulbs. 3) Measure right across the widest part of each hoof 4) Compare your measurements to Cavallo sizing chart 5) Re-measure if the length is greater than the width by two sizes, 1/2 inch (12mm) or more. Fitting Tips: The weight-bearing LENGTH indicates the size necessary. Take width measurements as well since that helps to confirm you have chosen the correct size. You may wish to measure each hoof as they may differ in size requiring two different pairs. Only new UNUSED boots can be exchanged. To keep the boot clean, we suggest covering the hoof with thin plastic and checking fit on a non-scuff (not gravel), clean, dry surface. Cavallo Hoof Boots are easy to fit - simply insert hoof into boot. Secure Velcro® closures and adjust sliding keepers on the Simple boot or secure outside closure on the Sport boot. Make sure you do not have to force the boot on and that it does not rotate independently from the horse’s hoof. Before your first ride, remember that there is a break-in period. We suggest not wearing the boots for more than 20 minutes the first day. You can speed up the break-in process by using leather softener or riding through water. If your horse has sensitive skin, or if you are going on a long ride and are concerned about potential rubbing, Cavallo Pastern Wraps can be used.
