The test of a fly boot is whether it is still on at dinner. Shoofly Leggins™ pass it: a flexible plastic mesh that stands open around the leg and closes with hook-and-loop, so it stays put through turnout without restricting blood flow or movement. The mesh keeps flies and biting insects off the lower leg and stops bot flies laying eggs there, which means less stomping, and less stomping is easier on hooves, joints and muscles. The open weave lets air through, which also helps a scrape dry and heal. Set of four in Blue or Pink; Small, Medium or Large by cannon circumference. Made in Mexico with a 100% manufacturer's guarantee. Hose off or wipe down as needed.

"These are by far the longest lasting, sturdiest, and most effective fly boots on the market. I thought they looked ridiculous when I first saw them on a client's horse, but have used them on over 20-25 horses now, and they almost always last the entire fly season, sometimes until the next year. They help tremendously with hoof cracking, losing shoes, and horses are just generally more peaceful in the pasture."
"I haven’t gotten them yet!"
"These are the best!"
"Love these! Great fit and pretty pink."
"These are the very best fly boots - they don't rub on sensitive skinned horses and they stay up. The last pair I bought lasted 6 months, which is a record for my horse who is a 'player. ' If you need good fly boots, these are the ones you should purchase."
"Love these! They hold up for the whole season and never fall off and the fit is great!"
"Shoofly leggings are part of my fly management. My horses wear them from early Spring through late fall 24/7 when not being ridden. I have 2 pairs for each horse, so I can clean them regularly. They fit excellently my 16. 2 hand TB (medium) and my 14. 2 Arabian (small). No rubbing, sagging. No stomping, no bites! Strongly recommend!"
"I recently purchased fly boots for my horse from Schneiders. Ordering is easy, shipping is quick, and the quality is excellent."
"I never received them."
"They’re great! Came fast and they’re durable! Keeps my horses from stomping so much so shoes last like they’re supposed to."
