Equilibrium Equi-Chaps Close Contact Turnout Chaps - Black

Season:DC

Brand:Equilibrium

Code:EQCHCCBK

The Equilibrium Equi-Chaps Close Contact Turnout Chaps fit close to your horse's legs, like a second skin, to keep them protected from the damaging effects of mud. These boots completely encase the lower leg, covering the hoof, heel and fetlock area.

Offering mild protection from brushing and overreach injuries they eliminate the need for a brushing boot and an overreach boot when turning out. They are very easy to clean and dry quickly and the touch and close straps make them secure even around the fetlock area.

With handy grip tabs for easy removal, they can be worn on both the front and back legs.

Made from a perforated neoprene, the Equi-Chaps Turnout Boots are breathable, soft and comfortable, allowing superb freedom of movement without the risk of them slipping.

Please note these boots are not suitable for horses or ponies with a neoprene allergy.

Sizing Information

General Information on Equilibrium Sizing

The sizes here are for the average type of horse or pony and should suit most breeds. However if there is a non standard type of horse/pony that does not fit the guidelines below, please contact us for additional size advice.

Sizes are standardised across all our products, so if a horse is a Medium size in brushing boot then as a general rule of thumb they will be a Medium size in a fly mask. For the best boot, wrap or chap fit we recommend measuring how much bone a pony or horse has but if you are unable to do this then use the general horse height and type description below.

Products must be tried on a clean, dry horse/pony, so that if the size is not correct, the product is still perfectly clean to be exchanged for a different size. Mistakes in size cannot be rectified once the product has been used.

Fitting Equilibrium Tri-Zone Boots

Boots do not need to fit as closely to the horse's legs as wraps or chaps, but care must still be taken when selecting what size the horse needs. To measure the horse's leg, simply measure the circumference of the cannon bone at the mid point between knee/hock and fetlock and follow the sizing guide below to determine which size the horse requires. Getting the correct size for the horse will maximise the level of comfort and protection.

Fitting Equilibrium Stretch & Flex Wraps

Measure the horse's leg as described above, and refer to the size chart below for the size of wrap your horse needs.

Fitting Equilibrium Equi-Chaps

Getting the correct size is particularly important with the Close Contact Chaps where a snug fit is necessary to keep the mud out. If they are too big, they will slip down or allow mud to get under the chap, too small and stress will be exerted on the seams leading to splitting.

Fitting Equlibrium Fly Masks

It is vital that there is good eye and eyelash clearance in order for the fly mask to be comfortable for the horse, pony or donkey. All Equilibrium masks have adjustable straps under the cheeks but the darts over the eyes and ear lengths are fixed.
