Iconoclast Orthopedic Support Boots - EXTRA TALLS

Iconoclast Orthopedic Support Boots - EXTRA TALLS
$260.00

The Iconoclast® Orthopedic Support Boot has absolutely REVOLUTIONIZED equine leg support. Iconoclast® Boots are specifically designed to support and protect the suspensory and sesamoidial regions by providing 360-degree support of the equine leg. Never has this method of support been provided for the equine athlete through a strap on, non-restrictive device.

Our entire line of Iconoclast® Boots were designed by horse trainers and leading veterinarians who were unsatisfied with the performance of every other equine boot in the market place. The equine leg needs support and protection against the daily rigors of extreme physical activities and there has not been a boot that adequately meets both of those demands until now. THAT IS THE ICONOCLAST® DIFFERENCE!

(XXL & XXXL ARE A SPECIAL ORDER)

EXTRA TALL ORTHOPEDIC SUPPORT BOOTS DESIGN & FUNCTION

Performance horses need extra support because they are exposed to difficult maneuvers such as hard stops, backing, deep turns, jumps and long, full strides. As a result of performing these maneuvers the hock reaches a fully flexed position and a "vertical load" force is applied to the hock joints and the soft tissue of the lower limbs. Since the suspensory ligament attaches at the top of the cannon bone, just below the lower hock joints, it can become stressed or injured due to these forces from above. The extra height of this new boot will help to save the upper suspensory ligament from injury during these strenuous performance maneuvers. The Iconoclast Extra Tall Orthopedic Sport Boots feature four upper straps in addition to our patented Double Sling Straps which wrap around the base of the fetlock, lifting and cradling it with unparalleled 360-degree lateral support. Iconoclast Boots provide properly balanced support to the vertically moving tissue of the equine leg. No other boot or wrap in the industry can give this much, real, balanced, proper support.

Patented Support & Design

  • Double Sling Straps: Features a unique double-wrapping strap that cradles the base of the fetlock from both sides, offering twice the lateral support of single-strap competitor boots. 
  • True 360-Degree Cradle: Evenly distributes weight and impact shock across the suspensory branches rather than just protecting against side knocks like standard splint boots. 
  • Prevents Hyperextension: Actively limits extreme over-flexion and lowering of the fetlock joint during high-speed stops, sharp turns, and heavy landings. 
  • Venn-Diagram of Vet and Trainer Design: Co-developed by leading veterinarians and horse trainers who were unsatisfied with existing market options.

     

    Fit, Comfort & Protection

    • Tight Sealing Edge: The anatomical double sling creates a snug lower seal that prevents damaging arena sand, grit, and gravel from working their way up under the boot during a ride. 
    • Non-Restrictive Movement: Engineered to support the anatomy without restricting natural joint movement or causing interference. 
    • Specialized Hind Options: Hind boots are available in regular or extra-tall heights (some featuring reinforced Kevlar pads) to protect the lower fetlock and support the upper ligament attachments during extreme vertical loading. 
    • Versatility: Suitable for diverse disciplines ranging from barrel racing and reining to jumping, dressage, and general conditioning. 

       

      Durability & Use

      • Rehabilitation and Prevention: Excellent both for preventing soft tissue injuries during intensive work and for stabilizing healing tissues during recovery.
      • Tough Construction: Built with heavy-duty, shock-absorbing orthopedic neoprene and durable hook-and-loop closures that hold tight under rigorous use.
