Description
The Scootboot Mud Straps are the ultimate riding accessory for those who like it extreme. The perfect accompaniment to your boots, the mud strap provides unparalleled security in deep mud and when riding over rough terrain. It can also help prevent losing a boot in the instance a horse overreaches. Made from extremely robust thermoplastic urethane (TPU), the Mud Straps are designed to stretch when placed under load and, if secured correctly, won't affect the horse's pasterns.
Also available in Black!

Note - as there are so many variables to the size of a horses upper hoof, you may find the Mud Straps are a size too small. If this is the situation, you can easily extend the length 10mm (3/8") which will be the length of the next size up. Do this by heat stretching.
When you have the perfect fit - you will achieve maximum retention
If too big - if the Mud Strap can be pulled down to comfortably reach the coronet band, then your Mud Strap is a size too big and will pull off the hoof with minimum pressure
If too small - if you cannot slip a finger comfortably around the periphery of the Mud Strap, then the Mud Strap is a size too small and will likely cause rubbing
The Scootboot Mud Strap is:
- Made from TPU, the same material that makes Scootboots so flexible and durable.
- Designed for extreme riding.
- Can be used as extra security for riders who ride regularly in deep mud and boggy conditions.
- Easy to put on and can be left on your Scootboots ready for your next ride.
- A low-cost solution to prevent having to replace a lost Scootboot.
- Helps prevent boots being pulled off.
- An alternative to the Scootboot Pastern Strap.
- Available in 7 sizes.
Note - if your horse is a heavy breed with big boned hooves/pasterns or has feathers you may need a size larger than our chart suggests. Once fitted, ensure you can run a finger under the strap around the periphery of the pastern. If this is not possible you will have to go up a size. If you can easily run two fingers around the periphery then you may have a size too big.
How do you secure the Mud Strap?
If you're struggling to pull your mud strap sleeves onto your mud straps, try tying a piece of string/or ribbon to the end of the mud strap to then pull it through the sleeve.
