UK Wool

Sustainable

Plastic-free

Compostable

Made of 100% sheep wool felted onto a jute hessian carrier material, our naturally antibacterial, comfy hoof pads are an excellent choice when it comes to hoof-care. Perfect for protection, as part of a poultice or just to increase the comfort of an existing boot or cover – these natural wool hoof pads are just fantastic.

Wool has a range of natural properties that benefit our equine friends.

Benefits of wool hoof pads over synthetic versions are:

  • Wool is environmentally-friendly & sustainable
  • Wool is naturally antibacterial
  • The wool moulds to the frog, providing support and comfort
  • Wool is naturally breathable and hygroscopic, wicking away gunge and helping with the healing process.
  • Wool is surprisingly durable and long-lasting
  • Wool hoof pads tend not to twist or slip
  • The wool pads are reusable
  • The wool pads are compostable
  • The wool pads are anti static

How to use:

Simply insert the pad into the boot, like an insole. For heavier horses or additional padding, place two layers in the boot. They can be added to as the pad squashes down.

The pads can be cleaned in warm soapy water, then left flat to dry. If they’ve been used on an infected hoof then please dispose of them. They can be composted or made into a mulch mat for the garden.

Each pack contains: two pads, each approx. 15mm thick.

Best ever hoof boot liners

The hoof boot liners I have had in the past always squashed down to nothing very quickly and were almost useless. These Snug Hoof Wool Pads are different. They work brilliantly enabling my horse to go happily along the stoniest tracks. If and when they wear out I will be buying more. Thank you Chimney Sheep for a great product.

Very impressed

Saw these online and decided to try them for our pony, Milady, who has laminitis and has been so very sore…got her some boots which helped but her feet were a little smelly, as she was having to wear the boots almost all of the time…these pads have been great, smell has significantly reduced and now she doesn’t need the boots on quite so much! Would highly recommend!

Highly recommend

This product was recommended by Gawsworth Track Livery as being used successfully with their laminitic rehabs. They stated that the product wicks away sweat etc and so promotes hygiene. Having used the pads on my horse (who wears boots due to sensitive soles) I can say that this really is the case. The pads were used for several days. My horse’s soles were bone dry and looking good after removal of boots. I would highly recommend .

Great hoof boots inserts, easily washable & dry quickly. It helps cushion my horses hooves in her boots.
Well packaged & quick delivery

Great find.

Using foam pads inside her boots when she was on box rest with Laminitis due to EMS made her feet sweaty and smelly. These pads are a god send. So comfortable and not in the least sweaty or smelly. Definitely recommend.
