Skid boots are protective boots put on the legs of a horse to protect the back of the fetlock joint during hard or active use such as barrel racing, reining, etc. They are designed to prevent a horse from feeling a burning sensation when the horse drives its legs into the ground, like during tight, hard, turns or during a deep or hard stop.
