Veredus Fetlock Boots

These are the boots I like to use for shows. They are also good for daily use because they’re so comfortable, and why save comfort for special occasions? They look so comfortable you almost want to put them on yourself. Although they look like they are lined with sheepskin, Veredus has a new ‘Save The Sheep’ initiative, where they don’t use any animal derivatives on these boots. The ‘sheepskin’ is actually a man-made fabric, so it’s 100% cruelty-free. There are advantages to this fabric, and they are as follows: • They can be washed easily, and they also dry quickly. • They use a loose, soft wide knit, so trapped sand comes out easily. • It creates a more comfortable fit than natural lambskin. • The fabric does not mat or get stiff After a show, I generally just rinse them off in a bucket of warm water, leave them to dry, and once they are dry go over them with a brush to fluff them up again, and they are good as new, and ready for my next show.

Why Fetlock boots?

Riders like Scott Brash, Bertram Allen, Marcus Ehning, Steve Guerdat, Ben Maher, Michael Whitaker, and Lauren Hough, to name just a few, all use Veredus Young Jump fetlock boots.

Veredus’s way of designing was born from a passion for details, and the desire to bring to equestrian sports, the perfect combination of style and performance Veredus design, test, and manufacture for some of the top riders in the world. Save the sheep initiative, STS Save the Sheep, the new line in techno sheepskin is cruelty-free. The lining is a “man-made” fabric, which is free from any animal derivatives. The techno sheepskin offers numerous advantages:

  • You can wash Techno sheepskin easily and it dries easily, in contrast, real lambskin requires considerable and lengthy maintenance;
  •  Any trapped sand comes out of the loose soft wide knit easily, minimizing the risk of  leg abrasions;
  •  Techno sheepskin is more comfortable, and has a cozier fit than natural lambskin;
  •  Techno sheepskin stays looking good for longer, while real lambskin tends to dry out and become stiff and also tends to turn yellow.
