TuffRider Single Part Ribbed Bell Boots w/ Hook and Loop Tape are made to protect the pastern area. Some boots can leave uncomfortable rubs on the pasterns after turnout or schooling. The Single Part Ribbed Bell Boots provide coverage in this area for smooth protection. With a ribbed design, this rubber bell boot maintains its flexibility, but with added structure to stand up to hoof impact. Hook and loop tape makes for easy on/off.
