Ice Horse Pro Therapy Laminitis Boot is rated 3.1 out of 5 by 7.

Rated 2 out of 5 by KLM1234 from Needed product with poor design and over-priced I bought these boots about a month ago. While I appreciate them, the ice packs don't stay in place so that within the two hours that they stay cold, they slip and my horse steps on them, ripping them open. For $20/ pack, it gets expensive fast. The boots could be better designed. I eventually bought ice packs from NexCare and they work just as well, and cost about $6/pack.

Rated 5 out of 5 by SmartPaker Gena from LIFESAVER I absolutely love these boots for icing a horse during a laminitis episode. They could be used really for icing any type of injury from the fetlock down but the reason for this purchase was to support a horse enduring a laminitic episode. The ice packs last 4 hours before needing to be swapped. The design of the boot allows for the boots to be left on without surveillance or needing to be held which is a real-time saver for any barn professional or horse owner. I would recommend purchasing an extra set of ice packs if your horse needs 24/7 icing - that way while one set of ice packs are freezing the other can be in the boot, providing icing support for the horse. The boots are a little tricky to put on the first time but once you go through the steps once, it is easy. The boot may also seem to be a little big if you try the boot on without the ice packs but once the packs are in, the boot will fit perfectly. The ice packs velcro to the boot itself which helps when putting the boot on, keeping everything securely in place. Super durable - have not washed yet but not concerned that this will affect the quality of the boot.

Rated 1 out of 5 by Sheila from Imposible to put on and stay on Not recommended. It is extremely difficult to put on and stay on.

Rated 2 out of 5 by CACandV from Wish it was easier I watched the videos and compared to other options, but I should have known nothing is as easy as made out to be. It’s a 5 star concept with 2 star execution. The ice packs fall off as I attempt to put it on - too heavy for the hook strips to hold. So I have to put her foot on it, madly try to add the ice, pull it all together before she lifts her leg and pull it all together. Of course, all the hook covered tabs are sticking everywhere by now and have to be pulled off each other. All this is being done with my head pointed down as I lean into a 1 ton mare who isn’t that thrilled with it. Phew, once I get it all pulled together, it goes to 4 stars. Not as good as crushed ice in the bags they sell, but less mess and the seams pop open easily on the bags. Lot’s of money, should work better, and maybe others are younger and have larger hands and will love it. I can only sort of like. Recommend is maybe, not so much yes. It depends...

Rated 3 out of 5 by Fara from Doesn’t come with enough ice packs These boots use 3 ice packs per boot and come with only 6, so you can’t continuously ice without buying additional packs. It’s pretty shoddy for the company to promote these as laminitis boots without providing enough ice packs to facilitate continuous icing. They also can’t handle over 100 degree outdoor temperatures and stay sufficiently cold. That said, they are a good option for all but the hottest temps, if you’re willing to fork up the additional $$ for 6 more ice packs (which are not cheap). There is a modest amount of data on the efficacy of these online (I believe from New Bolton at UPenn).

Rated 5 out of 5 by Mmvictorelli from Life saver! I ordered these boots for my horse who had acute laminitis following a week of being sick. Icing an 1800lb horse in pain in ice water buckets was a nightmare and backbreaking. Thanks to Smartpaks amazing customer service I received them super fast and they are a life saver! Super easy to apply and last for well over 2 hours and he can move around and eat while being iced so we are both very happy

Rated 4 out of 5 by Anonymous from Helpful I bought this for my horse that has had a sole bruise for months and gets foot sore easily. These seem to have helped quite a bit. The only issue we have had is that they are a bit awkward to put on and the velcro broke quickly on one of the boots. I love these boots I just wish they had held up better.
