A Perfect Fit
Announcing the New Cavallo Comfort Sleeve , designed to
give your horse additional protection while using Cavallo
Hoof Boots. Easy to use with an adjustable fit, the Comfort
Sleeve can be used with any Cavallo Boot style. Simply pull
the sleeve over the hoof and onto your horse’s pastern and
fasten the adjustable Velcro strap! You can see me using
one in this video demo – voila!
As do Cavallo’s well-known Pastern Wraps, the Comfort
Sleeves offer an extra layer of protection for your horse’s
bulb and pastern area at home or when you ride. Maybe
you are planning an extra-long ride, your horse is extra-
sensitive, or you are breaking in a new pair of Cavallo Hoof
Boots. Made with elasticated 100% Cotton for total
comfort and ribbed for a contoured fit, these sleeves are
the ultimate in flexibility and stability.
Make Breaking-In
a Breeze with the
Comfort Sleeve
Remember that there may be an initial break-in period
required to soften the leather at the bulbs and around the
collar of your horse’s new boots. Like your own riding boots,
it is recommended that time is taken to gradually break the
hoof boots in, so that they may take the shape of your
horse’s individual hoof. The first day you use your new
Cavallos, you may wish to use Comfort Sleeves as well and
let your horse rumble around for about 20 minutes (during
turn-out or riding). If no signs of sensitivity are seen,
increase the time of wear by another 20 minutes, until the
backs of the boots customize to your horse’s bulb area and
