How to choose the correct length
Regular length is most often the best choice. This length will provide optimum protection up and down the leg.

Short version socks were created for a veterinarian who specializes in EPD (Equine Pastern Dermatitis) issues on horses in the show barns where grooms and trainers are always present and the socks can be monitored to see that they are in place over the sores. Unmonitored horses can walk out of the short version socks. Horses on turnout can walk out of the short version socks. Where horses are closely supervised, the short version socks are easy to put on and take off when the socks need to be changed often.
