Best for low to mid mileage riding (<25-50 miles a week), these hoof boots are for more casual use. A great replacement if your horse loses a shoe on the trail, while traveling, or at home. An ideal option for the tender-footed horse or as extra protection during light turnout. These are not designed for aggressive or 23/7 use and should not be used in such cases.

Designed for near-constant 23/7 use to protect hooves during a variety of turnout conditions. A horse is more likely to damage or pull off a hoof boot by playing, chewing, rolling, etc., when turned out at liberty. Regularly take turnout hoof boots off for evaluation and maintenance, and allow them to air out in between uses to help prevent bacteria buildup.

Additional Information
Manufacturer's Warranty: "Many people do indeed use Cavallo Boots (all styles) in combination with metal shoes, with great results. The Cavallo Boot TPU (thermo-plastic urethane) soles can assist in absorbing shock, which causes vibration up the horse’s structure. Boots also prevent sole bruising in rough terrain, on hard ground and asphalt. Cavallos are also used for shod horses for hoof rehabilitation and to provide increased comfort and protection during riding, training, transport, and turnout.
Cavallo cannot guarantee that boots used over metal shoes and studs will hold up over prolonged use due to the force of metal, protruding nails, or sharp edges Therefore, the warranty is void when boots are used over metal shoes. If booting over metal, we recommend using Cavallo Protection Pads to extend the life of your boot soles. Simply replace your Protection Pads from time to time, as needed, for maximum boot sole protection."
