Equilibrium Stretch and Flex Flatwork Wraps
Designed to offer the support of an exercise bandage with the convenience of a boot. The Equilibrium Stretch and Flex Flatwork Wraps are made from a unique and highly effective fabric called Stomatex®, which allows these wraps to actively work at keeping horses’ legs cool during exercise. The four-way stretch of the fabric means that there is freedom of movement for your horse, whilst the Velcro fastenings make them easy to put on and take off. The wraps are extremely soft and comfortable and the thick cushioned panels protect fetlock joints and splint bones.
Available in different colours, and in an array of sizes to help achieve a perfect fit, the Stretch and Flex Flatwork Wraps are not just for dressage or schooling, but can be used for hacking, lunging, showing, endurance and carriage driving.
Can be worn front or back legs as required.
Material:
Stretch & Flex Training Wraps are made from Stomatex® – a revolutionary, unusual looking, material. The material itself mimics the way a leaf ‘breathes’ which keeps the skin free from perspiration and maintains an ideal skin temperature over an extended period of time.
The way the material works is by efficiently moving trapped vapour molecules from beneath the fabric by the flexing action of minute dome shaped chambers which contain a tiny pore in the centre.
The chambers create a self-contained micro-climate, allowing cooler, drier air to pass through at a controlled rate and the material works as hard as you and your horse are working to maintain this constant condition.
This process means that Stomatex® can overcome the problems of perspiration and over-heating traditionally associated with the use of closed cell foam materials such as traditional neoprene.
