"A hard shell that protects against shocks while remaining flexible"
The latest innovation in the Stübben&Evolution range. Designed with the horse's anatomy in mind, Hybrid gaiters and fetlock guards follow the shape of the tendon and fetlock for superior comfort and performance. The revolutionary design of the rigid shell, which gives it a certain capacity to flex, allows the horse to maintain its natural range of movement without interference, whether on the flat or over jumps. The areas likely to receive the most blows - the back of the gaiter and the inside of the fetlock guard - have been reinforced to guarantee protection against shocks. Last but not least, the design of the gaiter and fetlock guard vents provides excellent ventilation and facilitates heat transfer.
Traditional leather or neoprene gaiters limit friction, but in the event of an impact, the horse is not sufficiently protected. Conventional hard-shell gaiters and fetlock protectors guarantee this impact protection, but their rigidity limits the horse's natural range of movement. The Hybrid range has been developed to be the evolution of these products and the ultimate hybrid combining the best of the previous concepts.
