The Equilibrium Close Contact Chaps are a turnout boot for mud fever prevention, designed to keep horse’s legs dry and mud free. With mud fever, prevention is better than cure and these mud fever boots fit close, like a second skin to help keep legs protected and reduce the damaging effect mud can have on the skin. Unlike other turnout boots, they completely encase the lower leg, covering the hoof, heel and fetlock area. They also offer mild protection from brushing and overreach injuries so eliminate the need for a brushing boot and an overreach boot when turning out.

It is important that the close contact chaps fit the horse snugly so that mud doesn’t rise under the boots and cause irritation which could lead to mud fever. Because of this, we have found that many horses need a smaller size in the Close Contact Chaps than they would normally wear.
