Store nowThe VITANDAR XL stable boots are a further development of our ‘normal’ Classic Stable Boots . The ‘XL’ stands for Extra Long. They are therefore cut a lot higher in order to achieve more effect in the area of the joints. We developed them in collaboration with our vet for use during therapy, after injuries and operations.
The XL stable boots can support and promote the regeneration process just like the normal Classic stable boots. The infrared ceramic membrane improves blood circulation in the tissue and thus brings more oxygen to the region.

– Relieve the pain of osteoarthritis
The deep heat promotes the circulation of joint fluid. This improves the mobility of the affected limbs. The comforting warmth relieves the pain of movement.
– For legs that have become swollen and to support the lymphatic system
The good compressive effect of the gaiters supports the lymphatic system in draining the lymph. This provides support for legs that have become swollen.
– Impact protection in the box
Inside our gaiters is a performance foam that is thick enough to absorb and distribute impacts well.
– During transportation
Thanks to their good protective properties and the infrared effect, which stimulates blood circulation, our gaiters are also ideal for transportation on a trailer. They also counteract swollen legs during long journeys.
– Supporting the healing of leg and tendon damage
Once the acute phase following an injury is over and the swelling has subsided, blood circulation can be supported as the healing process progresses. This brings more oxygen to the affected areas and promotes self-healing.
When developing the stable boots, the focus was not only on the active principle with the infrared effect, but also on the fit on the horse’s leg. The boots should be as easy to handle as possible, self-explanatory and easy for anyone to put on. This means that nothing should slip or pinch. We have therefore used a foam material on the inside that is large-pored enough to provide good breathability. But it is also kink-resistant so that the gaiters do not sag or slip down the leg.
Our stable boots are made from ‘one piece’. This means that there is no slippage of internal cushions. This also makes it easier to put on the boots. Especially when this is done by helpers.
VITANDAR stable boots close ‘butt to butt’ at the front. We wanted to avoid an overlap, as this can cause pressure points. Especially when gaiters remain on the horse’s leg for a long time. The size range of XS, S, M, L and XL covers the range very well. You can find a size chart under Sizes .
Neoprene is a synthetic rubber and therefore not at all breathable. That’s why we use a large-pored foam for our stable boots, which, in addition to its good ventilation properties, also hugs the horse’s leg very well. Our Performance Form also has good stability so that the boots do not collapse.

Start the application slowly and increase the dose gradually.
In the first few days of use, the increased blood circulation can lead to an increased effect. The application should then be reduced again and gradually increased in the following days.
We recommend that the products are not used continuously for 24 hours, but that the body is always given a boost by alternating between use and rest. The optimum duration for most applications is half a day, e.g. overnight use.
Observe your horse to see if it feels comfortable with it!
The VITANDAR stable boots are intended for use when the horse is at rest. So use them primarily when the horse is in the box or at the grooming area. Overnight use is ideal.
Some of the stable boots are also suitable for use in the paddock or pasture. Use is possible under good ground conditions. Care must be taken to ensure that no sand or mud gets in, which could cause chafing. Regular attention should also be paid to a good seating position.
VITANDAR gaiters are suitable for the following areas of application:
– to promote lymph flow and blood circulation
– for wound healing
– for regeneration after exercise
– for supportive treatment of injuries
The XL gaiters for the front legs are cut extra high to reach the carpal joint.
So that the horse can bend its legs comfortably when lying down, a cut-out has been worked into the back of the gaiter so that nothing can pinch.
The stable boots are fastened with 5 Velcro fasteners and can therefore be easily adjusted to the horse’s leg.

The XL gaiters for the hind legs are also cut extra high and reach up to the hock.
The top Velcro ends sufficiently in front of the bend so that the horse can bend the leg well when lying down without it constricting.
They are also closed with 5 Velcro fasteners. Here, too, we have made sure that the horse can bend its leg well forwards when lying down.
