Kentucky Tendon Boots Bamboo Velcro

Sustainability and protection go hand in hand with these tendon guards. Kentucky has consciously chosen bamboo as the core material, the fastest growing plant in the world with exceptional tensile strength. The bamboo shield reinforces the tendon area and prevents sharp objects from penetrating, while the naturally antibacterial properties of the material keep the protectors fresh between washes.

The outer layer consists of a lightweight TPU frame with multiple ventilation holes surrounding the tendon area and a larger triangular mesh opening for extra airflow. This keeps the temperature around the leg low, even during intensive training or competitions. At the point where the leg bends, a soft piece of natural rubber is integrated that absorbs friction without hindering movement. An additional TPU inner layer increases durability for daily intensive use.

The breathable 3D spacer lining provides a soft and comfortable feel directly against the skin, with additional ventilation from within. The anatomical design follows the natural line of the leg and gives the horse complete freedom of movement, which benefits jumping. The protectors have been tested with a special machine that simulates a force of 80N with a razor-sharp axe, heavier than any impact during riding. They are also Rico test approved and RCT certified.
