The 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.
- 2 Mud Straps
- 2 Mud Strap Collars
- 4 Mud Strap Sleeves (to be used to improve the fit or if your horse has sensitive skin/rubbing issues)
This video demonstrates how to stretch the mud strap with boiling water to make it longer. You may need to do this if you have a size too small or if your horse is experiencing rubbing due to the mud strap being too tight. You have the correct size Mud Strap if you are able to fit your finger between the strap and your horse's leg.
Here is an alternative way to stretch your Mud Straps using a heat gun or a hair dryer:

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. If you have any queries about fit, please send us photos of the strap on your boots to sizing@scootboots.com for advice.
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
We have been riding fulltime in Scoots for 8 years and use mud straps just about every ride! All it takes is one deep puddle (ask me how I know), on an otherwise completely dry ride, to muck up your day. They are easy to use and the best insurance when the rivers and mud puddles are deep.

Mudstraps & service
I'd like to say firstly thank you 🙏🏽 so much to scoot boot Australia for backing up your product..
Mudstraps are awesome. Unfortunately a NZ supplier in the sth island didn't fulfill his product sale to me by sending me incorrect sizing then abandoning me even thou what he sold was incorrect.. so scoot boot came to the rescue without hesitation. So thankyou again for such great customer service.. highly recommend dealing direct with scoot boot ⭐

Easy to put on, on a trail ride recently out of all the horses wearing scoot boots mine was the only horse who didn't lose any boots so am very pleased with the straps.

The shoes are the best. Every part on its own has a very good quality. But I do have a problem to put them together and put the shoes on, as I am simply not strong enough. If you can come up with a system for people like me, so I don't need help, that would be perfect!

Absolutely love the Enduro scoots.
My horse is so comfortable in them.
Will be buying another pair for his hind feet.
