Quick FAQ

How long does it stay on?

Many riders see 24 to 72 hours depending on sweat, turnout, friction, and placement. Remove sooner if edges lift and rub.

Will it irritate the skin?

Skin comfort depends on prep, tension, and removal. Patch test if your horse is sensitive, keep anchors at zero stretch, and remove slowly with hair growth using a water-first method.

Can I use it at competitions?

This is a routine support tool. Always follow your discipline’s current rules and check what is allowed in the ring or warm up.
