Why protect with bamboo?

Because we're committed to sustainable development, we wanted to develop a new green technology that everyone knows about Bamboo is the fastest-growing plant in the world. It has enormous tensile strength, prevents the penetration of sharp objects and is antibacterial.

Elastic Bamboo gaiters are made from a sturdy TPU shell with multiple ventilation holes in the tendon area and a large ventilation triangle.

The tendon area is reinforced with bamboo to prevent penetration.

Where the horse flexes, we've added a piece of soft natural rubber to prevent friction.

The inside of the gaiters is reinforced with an extra layer of TPU to resist abrasion.

We've created our own in-house testing machine that creates a force of 80N when dropped on a horizontal horse leg with a razor-sharp axe. Our Bamboo shield horse gaiters stand up to this extreme test method, which cannot be compared to any real impact during riding.
The gaiters are also Rico test approved and RCT certified.

Fabrics and materials

Our Bamboo Shield front protectors are made from our well-known, highly breathable 3D Spacer lining, used in our closed gaiters and 3D Spacer horse blankets. They feature a robust TPU outer shell, both lightweight and durable, and an additional bamboo insert in the tendon area for optimum protection against impact and penetration by sharp objects, and are also antibacterial.

Shape and size

Thanks to their anatomical shape, gaiters adapt perfectly to the horse's leg, offering maximum comfort and protection. This gives the horse maximum freedom of movement for better jumping.

The soft, flexible rubber insert under the joint also offers the horse greater comfort of movement.

Care instructions

Gaiters are machine-washable at 30°C (do not tumble dry). We always recommend using a wash bag to avoid scratches caused by washing. You can easily use our gaiter cleaner, specially designed for TPU protectors, to make your gaiters look like new even after use.
