Bell Boots & Overreach Boots

Bell boots are designed to help protect a horse’s hooves, heels, and coronary bands from impact injuries during riding and turnout. They are commonly used to reduce the risk of overreaching and accidental hoof strikes.

Bell boots are commonly used in barrel racing, jumping, reining, trail riding, and general performance riding. Many riders use them during both training sessions and competitions for added hoof protection.

Bell boots should fit snugly around the pastern area without restricting movement or causing rubbing. Proper fit helps keep the boots in position while maintaining comfort during movement.

Bell boots are commonly made from rubber, neoprene, synthetic fabrics or reinforced performance materials. Different materials provide different levels of flexibility, durability, and impact protection.

Bell boots may help reduce minor impact injuries caused by interference or overreaching during movement. While they provide protection, proper hoof care and training are also important for injury prevention.

Bell boots should be cleaned regularly to remove dirt, mud, sweat, and debris buildup. Proper cleaning and drying can help maintain performance and extend boot lifespan.
