It is important to match the width and length of the hoof to the Boa Horse Boot™ size. The front hooves of most horses tend to be more round and wider than the hind hooves. The best fit may require a smaller size for the hind.
How to get the correct size boot for your horse:
Measure the width of the hoof across the bottom at the widest point.
Measure the length of the hoof from the toe to the buttress line of the heel.The buttress line is the farthest weight bearing point of the heel.
Compare your measurement with the proper size chart below. If you are taking your measurements in inches, use the imperial size chart. If you are taking your measurements in millimeters, use the metric size chart.
Ideally, the width and length measurement will fit into the same Boa Horse Boot™ size. If the width and length measurements indicate different Boa Horse Boot™ sizes, select the larger Boa Horse Boot™ size.
