Choosing the right Tri-Zone Boot for Your Horse.
The Tri-Zone range of boots are trusted by owners and riders to offer tested protection for their horse. The Tri-Zone range undergoes independent testing to ensure each boot is up to it’s respective job – whether its a Brushing Boot or a boot designed for High Impact. Regardless of the protection level, each boot design is maximised to ensure it remains as breathable, lightweight and flexible as possible to ensure freedom of movement and comfort for your horse.
Read on to see what each boot is suitable for, and which would be best for you.

Brushing Boot Hacking Square
The Tri-Zone Brushing Boot.
Expect more from a 'traditional' brushing boot - these boots are the MOST breathable in the Tri-Zone range. Shaped and tested to protect against brushing injuries to the inside of the leg, these boots are ideal for gentle schooling, hacking and turnout for horses at LOW RISK of injury. If your horse is young, a bit 'all legs' or participates in a high impact sport such as cross country or polo, you would want to consider a boot with more protection in terms of a higher level of protection covering more areas of the leg.
All Sports
tri-zone all sports
The Tri-Zone All Sports Boots.
This boot is essentially the ‘step up’ from the Brushing Boot. Well suited to the all rounder who does a bit of everything, but equally the happy hacker who enjoys long or fast rides, or goes through water! The All Sports Boots provide protection to the entire lower leg, including an internal strike guard over the tendon area, all while remaining lightweight, breathable and flexible. These boots are great for cross country, jumping, schooling, hacking or even turnout! Available in multiple sizes, including XXS, Medium Wide and Medium Narrow to fit all varieties of horses and ponies.
Impact Sports Boots

The Tri-Zone Impact Sports Boots.
If you want maximum protection for your horse, this is the boot for you. While normally recommended for high impact sports such as cross country, polo or racing, if your horse is accident prone, ‘all legs’ or if you’re concerned about them – this boot could certainly work for you. Unlike both the Brushing Boots and All Sports, the Impact Sports Boots have a specific hind boot for maximum coverage. They have a similar make up to the All Sports Boots, but feature thicker material, as well as external strike guards placed in high-risk areas.

TZ Open Fronted Side Blackout Square Web
White-Open-Fronted-and-Fetlock-Square-Web
The Tri-Zone Open Fronted Boots.
Essentially an Impact Sports Boot with a open front, these tendon boots provide maximum protection to the tendon area, as well as some protection to the sides of the leg, leaving the front of the leg open and more vulnerable. Commonly used for show jumping but could also be considered for other activities due to the open front nature allowing more air too the leg and the potential to keep it cooler than the Impact Sports Boots. Designed to pair perfectly with the Tri-Zone Fetlock Boots, which have a smooth lining and measurements to comply with governing body requirements*.
