These innovative fly boots were designed with improved sizing for better fit, providing your horse maximum comfort and protection from biting bugs. The 1000D poly/vinyl mesh material protects your horse from flies, offering 70% UV protection while your horse is out in the pasture, with a full-length reflective strip for safety. These boots are flexible yet sturdy, with a hook and loop closure, keeping the boot upright on your horse’s leg. They are tapered like a cone, adding shadowing and darkness to the horse's leg and creating movement as they move, which deters flies from landing on them. Use all summer for lower leg fly protection, in the stall, or turned out.
These fly boots are made from our most durable 1000D heavy poly/vinyl Dura-Mesh fabric that provides the best airflow due to the open weave of the boots and 70% UV protection. The fabric offers insect protection that is best at protecting your horse from medium to large-sized flies, such as deer flies, greenheads, and horse flies.

"They fit really well. they are a tad taller than some others I have tried. Shipping was just as they said it would be. The quality seems good but I’m waiting to see how they hold up. I think I’m already seeing some wear and tear and I’ve only had them about a month so I’m just not sure on that. I typically get a whole season out of other brands I have purchased."
"Love the quality and they stay upright which is wonderful. I'd suggest getting a second set to rotate through because the bottom has a fleece cover and stay saturated very easily. Otherwise, excellent purchase and I'd say on par or even better than Shoo Flys"
"I was skeptical, Ive tried many and many have been a fail other than the “competitors” boots. We are only a month in but they are holding up well, the Velcro is still tight and they don’t sag. I also like the reflective feature, easier to see at night on the cameras or while we are camping. I’d buy again when I need to replace the others."
"These are my go to favorite fly boots. They last two summers here in Ohio. Large fits the TBs and medium fits the smaller horses perfectly."
"Seemed pretty sturdy, but the plastic backing is already coming out after only 3 weeks."
"These are great. Very comparable to shop fly. Got the size large for my 16 warmblood gelding with thick bone. They have held up well and going on 2 seasons. No rubbing"
"The boots are holding up nicely and fit well. Love the lime green color!"
"They are rigid enough not to collapse, soft enough not to rub and chafe, and I never take them off now!"
"Fit was very good, good quality and stayed on for moderate play. Size was accurate."
"Great product. One boot rubbed a sore but only on one leg."
