Riders tell us how these boots work for pastern protection and turnout.
Back on Track Pastern/Fetlock Band
★★★★★
I’ve purchased these before from another vendor and paid a lot more. My horse constantly rubs himself around his pastern, so these are a necessity. They seem to hold up for about a year before he rubs a whole through one. Velcro is very strong. These protect well and fit perfectly.
My Grand Prix horse likes to jump out of his paddock and do back flips, so I turn him out in these for hind protection. They never slip, slide, or come undone.

Match the boot to the job. Exercise boots and splint, brush and tendon boots protect the lower leg in work, fetlock and pastern boots cover the lower joints, bell boots protect the heel and coronet, and hock and knee boots cover those joints.

Our Take: Airflow boots
Light 3D mesh boots for exercise, brush, tendon and fetlock work.
Back on Track horse boots are for riders who want a boot chosen for a specific job, in a range of boot types and colors.
Look elsewhere if you need boots approved for a particular competition ruleset; check your show's rules first, since the Pastern/Fetlock Band is not approved for competition.
Size labels depend on the boot. Most exercise, splint, brush, tendon, hock and knee boots use Small, Medium and Large, and some styles add X Large. Royal Work and Royal Fetlock boots use Cob and Horse, and the Cool on Track bell boots run from Pony to Large Horse.
Two product pages give a hind sizing tip. The 3-D Mesh Splint Boots w/Fur and the Royal Exercise Boots with Shock Absorbent Pad say to order the hind boots one size larger than the front. The Bell Boots page says they tend to run large and to size down if you are between sizes.
| Boot type | Size labels | Fit note from the product page |
|---|---|---|
| Exercise, splint, brush and tendon boots | Small, Medium, Large; X Large on some styles | Hind boots one size larger than the front on the styles named above |
| Royal Work and Royal Fetlock boots | Cob, Horse | Work boots are designed for flatwork only |
| Bell boots | Small, Medium, Large on Bell Boots; Pony, Cob, Horse, Large Horse on Cool on Track | Bell Boots tend to run large; size down between sizes |
| Pastern/Fetlock Band | 24 cm, 26 cm, 28 cm | Sold in pairs; fits front and hind legs |
