What Horse Leg Protection and Injury-Prevention Products Does Premier Equine Make?
Updated
Premier Equine makes horse leg protection centred on two flagship lines — Racing Boots and Air Cooled Eventing Boots — plus brushing boots and a magnet therapy range, all positioned around injury prevention and performance. The brand describes itself as a global leader in horse leg protection and injury prevention, and says its Racing and Air Cooled Eventing Boots are the world's No.1 in their categories. If you are shopping for everyday schooling protection, cross-country work, or post-exercise recovery support, the range is organised around those needs rather than around a single boot type.
The core leg protection lines
Racing and Air Cooled Eventing Boots
These are the products Premier Equine leads with. The Racing Boots are aimed at the racing sector, where lightweight, secure protection during fast work matters. The Air Cooled Eventing Boots are built for eventing and are described as air cooled — the design intent is to keep air moving around the leg during exertion rather than trapping heat. Both lines sit under the brand's injury-prevention positioning: the boot protects the tendon and cannon area from strike injuries and knocks during work.
Brushing Boots
Brushing boots appear in the site's "Equestrian Essentials" section alongside saddles, bridles and therapy products. These are the everyday protective boot for flatwork, lunging and turnout-style exercise, guarding the lower leg against the horse brushing one leg against the other. They are the most general-purpose entry point into the leg protection range.
Magnet Therapy
Premier Equine also lists magnet therapy technology as one of its specialisms, and "Therapy" sits in the essentials section of the site. This is a recovery and comfort category rather than a working boot — it is used around stabling and rest rather than during ridden exercise. Note that magnetic products are a comfort and wellbeing category; they are not a substitute for veterinary assessment of a lame horse.
How the range fits together
| Need | Product area | When it is used |
|---|---|---|
| Fast work, racing-type exercise | Racing Boots | During training and fast work |
| Cross-country and eventing | Air Cooled Eventing Boots | During ridden exercise, with airflow a design priority |
| Schooling, lunging, general exercise | Brushing Boots | Everyday protective work |
| Rest, stabling, recovery comfort | Magnet therapy range | Off-horse, around the yard |
The logic is straightforward: pick the boot by the intensity and type of work, and use the therapy range separately for downtime. A horse in full eventing work may need eventing boots for fast work and brushing boots for flat days; the two are not interchangeable.
What to check before buying
- Discipline match. The Racing and Air Cooled Eventing Boots are specialist products. If your horse does low-intensity hacking and schooling, brushing boots are the more appropriate starting point.
- Fit and sizing. Leg protection only prevents injury if it stays in place and does not rub. Check the size guidance for the specific boot rather than assuming a size carries across lines.
- Front and hind sets. Boots are typically sold per pair and front and hind shapes differ; confirm what a listing includes before ordering.
- Price and availability. The site shows prices for rugs in US dollars, but leg protection pricing is not given in the material available here — check the individual product pages for current prices and stock.
- Therapy claims. Treat magnet therapy as a comfort product. For a horse with swelling, heat or lameness, the priority is veterinary advice, not a boot purchase.
Where to start on the site
The homepage navigation is the fastest route: "Brushing Boots" and "Therapy" sit under Equestrian Essentials, while the Racing and Air Cooled Eventing Boots are part of the brand's core horsewear range. The site also offers brochures and a PE Club discount scheme, which are worth checking if you are buying several items at once.
