Safeguard your horse’s performance with the ultimate defense against solid obstacles and high-impact strikes. The ARMA Carbon Cross Country Hind Boots offer professional-grade protection that remains lightweight and secure, even through the most demanding water complexes.

Engineered by Shires for the elite eventer, these boots utilize a sophisticated Triple Impact Support System to shield the vulnerable cannon bones and suspensory ligaments. By combining a rugged carbon-effect outer shell with a shock-absorbing 7mm EVA foam core and genuine Armortex® (Kevlar) strike pads, ARMA delivers unparalleled puncture resistance and abrasion defense without compromising the horse's natural range of motion during high-speed galloping.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Q: My horse is 15.1HH but has very thick legs; which size should I choose?
A: For horses at the top of a height bracket with "good bone" (thicker circumference), we recommend sizing up to the Full size to ensure the 360° ergonomic wrap closes securely without leaving gaps.

Q: Do these boots retain water during the course?
A: No, these boots are constructed from non-water absorbent materials, ensuring they remain lightweight and do not slip or become heavy after water jumps, maintaining your horse's balance and safety.
