If you don't have a scoot boat yet and are not sure about the size, you can find out in the Hoof boot shop Order Scoot Boots for testing.

You can find out how to determine the right size and how to recognise whether your scoot boot fits well on the page Sizing. If you are still unsure about the right size, you can also send me photos of the hooves by mail or Whats App +43 664 93 04 9000, I will try to answer you promptly with a suggestion.

How test hoof boots are tried on:

  • with clean/washed hooves
  • on a soft surface such as straw, towel, mat, etc
  • please try only 1 shoe on all hooves first, then both are not dirty if the size does not fit 

If the boot fits well by then, the actual testing with both Scoot Boots can begin. We advise you to always try out new Scootboots on the lunge first to check how your horse goes with them. 

Sometimes you have several horses or you need scoot boots for the front and rear and there are 2 sizes to choose from. Then it makes sense Fit Kit test shell to order for a fitting. Although these cannot and must not be ridden in, it is possible to determine whether the shoes basically fit the hoof shape and size. Of course, the test shoes and Fit Kit shells are also dispatched daily.
