Description
The Hoof Bootique Mixed Fit Kit allows you to size your horses’ feet correctly before ordering your hoof boots, to ensure a perfect fit and preventing wasted time and money sending boots back and forth. It takes the guesswork out of fitting hoof boots!
The price paid is a deposit only to HIRE the Fit Kit for up to 14 days (this can be extended, but please contact us first), once the Fit Kit has been returned any relevant Fit Kit fees will be retained from the deposit paid. Please refer to the "Mixed Fit Kit Deposit & Hire Fees" tab for the breakdown of deposits and fees.
If you hire one of our Fit Kits, we highly encourage you to send us photos/and or videos of your Fit Kit on, so we can help advise on how they fit before you purchase boots. You can email the photos to sales@hoofbootique.co.uk or contact us via Facebook Messenger. We ideally need to see photos of the hooves in each fitting shell on the ground from the front/side and heel bulb views (camera as low to the ground as possible for photo, mouse eye view). Videos can also be helpful to demonstrate how tightly fitting a particular shell is.

Fit Kits can be invaluable when it comes to finding the right hoof boot for your horse or pony. Unless you are looking at one particular style of boot, generally the best way to approach hoof boot fitting is to have a mixed fit kit. This will allow you to mix and match manufacturers and models, and try a selection of possible styles and sizes. You can then compare the fit of the different boots and find the hoof boot best suited to your horse's hooves.
How does the Hoof Bootique Mixed Fit Kit work?
You can hire as many sizes as you need to try, from a selection of manufacturers and models. You will only receive 1 shell of each size you request to hire, as this 1 shell can be tried on all hooves you're looking to boot. Please note, our fitting shells are not the complete boot and they're only designed to be tried on at a standstill and not walked in.
Please note we have a limit of 20 shells per Fit Kit when selecting 9 shells or more. If you require more than 20 shells, you will need to order a second Mixed Fit Kit.

What if I want to order boots upon returning my Fit Kit?
With every Fit Kit we include a Fit Kit Form which also contains an Order Form. If you fill this in and then return the form to us with your Fit Kit, we will create your new order for you upon the return of your Fit Kit. Any remaining deposit paid MINUS the relevant Fit Kit fee (as above) will be put towards this new order. Then any payment top-up required can follow by PayPal request, Bank Transfer or over the phone (arrangement only).
What if I have already ordered boots before returning my Fit Kit?
If you have already ordered boots from us and then returned your Fit Kit, we will refund you your remaining deposit paid MINUS the relevant Fit Kit fee (as above). Alternatively this remaining deposit can be applied to your account as a Store Credit if requested.
What if I do not wish to order boots after hiring my Fit Kit?
When you return your Fit Kit, if you do not wish to order boots from us (and have requested a refund) you will be refunded the deposit paid MINUS the relevant Fit Kit fee (as above), as well as an additional £10 ADMIN fee. This admin fee will be left on your account as a non-refundable Store Credit to put towards future purchases.
If you would like a STORE CREDIT of your remaining deposit rather than a Refund, the additional £10 ADMIN fee will not retained. However it will be retained and left on your account as a non-refundable Store Credit if you opt for a refund at a later date and still have not ordered boots from us.
You are responsible for returning the Fit Kit to us at your cost, and we are not able to refund you until the Fit Kit is received by us, so we do recommend a recorded method of postage.
