Horse Bandages & Polo Wraps

Shop polo wraps and horse bandages at iRide EQ. Fleece exercise wraps for flatwork and schooling, quilted stable bandages for overnight support, and travel wraps for the float — all in colours that coordinate with your saddle pads, ear bonnets, and the rest of your gear.

Polo wraps are the most versatile leg protection in your kit. A good set of fleece wraps cushions the tendons during flatwork, protects against brush strikes in the arena, and gives you something to stand a horse on for travel. The difference between a decent set and a cheap one comes down to fleece quality — thin, scratchy wraps slip and bunch, while a dense, stretchy fleece stays put and actually does the job.

At iRide EQ we carry polo wraps and stable bandages from Eloquence Equestrian, Equifit, Equidae / Sixteen Cypress, and Lady Godiva Equestrian. Whether you need a classic white set for dressage warm-up, a coordinated matchy-matchy look for competition, or a tough quilted set for stable duty, you'll find it here.

Polo Wraps for Exercise and Schooling

Fleece polo wraps are your go-to for flatwork, lungeing, and arena schooling. They wrap around the cannon bone and fetlock, providing light support and protection against brush strikes without the bulk of boots. The key is getting the tension right — too loose and they slip, too tight and you risk a pressure band. If you're new to wrapping, start with a fleece that has a bit of stretch (most of ours do) and practice on a calm horse before show day.

Look for wraps with hook-and-loop fastenings that hold through a full work session. The ones from Eloquence Equestrian come in coordinated stardust colours — royal blue, ruby red, deep olive — so you can match them to your saddle pad and ear bonnet set.

Stable Bandages and Travel Wraps

Quilted stable bandages serve a different purpose. You wrap them over padding (cotton wool or a purpose-made pad) to support the legs overnight or during travel. They're wider and firmer than exercise wraps, with a denser fleece that holds its shape for hours. If your horse stocks up overnight or has thin soles that benefit from standing wraps, a good stable set is non-negotiable.

For float travel, exercise polo wraps or travel boots both work — wraps give you a closer fit for horses who hate the bulk of boots, while travel boots and horse boots offer more impact protection. Many riders use wraps under boots for long trips.

Choosing the Right Wrap

• Exercise polos: fleece, 9-12cm wide, stretchy, hook-and-loop closure. For flatwork, lungeing, schooling.
• Stable bandages: quilted or dense fleece, 12-15cm wide, firmer. Wrap over padding for overnight support.
• Travel wraps: can use exercise polos or stable bandages. Pair with bell boots to protect the heel area during transport.
• Matchy-matchy sets: coordinate with your saddle pads and ear bonnets for a pulled-together competition look.
