ESKADRON AirFlex Sport gaiters
Tendon protection gaiter Eskadron AirFlex Sport
Anatomically designed front-leg gaiter in 3D-AirMesh neoprene with reinforced D3O® and Carbonfaser zones. Designed for horses in competition and intensive training, this Eskadron gaiter combines tendon and fetlock protection with preserved freedom of movement.
The detail that counts here: a sports gaiter must protect without imprisoning. The integrated Flexisoft zone allows the horse to bend the fetlock and tendon naturally under stress.

Tendon and fetlock protection: the AirFlex structure
- 3-Layer Protection: rigid shell for direct impact, Carbonfaser layer for shock dispersion, patented D3O® technology for energy absorption in critical areas (tendons, fetlocks).
- Integrated ventilation limits heat build-up under the gaiter, useful for long sessions or hot weather.
- Flexisoft zone: flexible portions at the back of the leg to preserve natural tendon and fetlock mobility without loss of support.
- 3D-AirMesh neoprene interior: air circulation, even pressure distribution, reduced compression points under intensive effort.
- Pin-Lock Sport system: double elastic with metal button fasteners, no-slip fit, adjustable to the horse's morphology.
Freedom of movement and balance with protection
In concrete terms, this gaiter is designed for competition horses (jumping, dressage, cross-country) whose limbs need to remain mobile at high levels of exertion. D3O protection remains continuously active, without restricting flexion.
A good choice if you're a regular or competitive rider. Avoid if you're looking for an ultra-minimalist gaiter, or if your horse works exclusively at walk pace in the arena.
Specifications and fit
Composition: 40% polyester, 40% other synthetic fibers, 10% polychloride, 10% polyamide. This formulation balances mechanical strength, flexibility and breathability.
The Pin-Lock system guarantees slip-free contact on limbs of different cross-sections. One thing to check before use: the size selected corresponds to your horse's barrel circumference, to avoid compression or instability of the gaiter under stress.
