The Specialty Orange Orthotic from Soft Ride is a medium-density gel insert designed specifically for larger or heavier horses that require a softer, more conformable gel than the standard turquoise insert. The Specialty Orange Orthotic is an acceptable orthotic for any horse needing a softer neutral density orthotic than the Standard Turquoise. Most horses over 1300lbs tend to use the orange gel instead of the purple gel because it offers enhanced shock absorption and distributes weight evenly across the hoof. This makes it ideal for horses that place higher loads on their feet. This orthotic helps reduce stress on joints and soft tissues while supporting natural hoof mechanics during therapy, transport, or stall rest. It’s a versatile option for therapeutic and preventive use in heavier breeds or horses with hoof sensitivity due to weight-related stress.

• Larger or heavier horses needing extra comfort (~1300+)
• Larger or heavier horses with navicular disease
• Horses with hoof soreness requiring greater gel conformity
• Therapeutic support during stall rest or rehabilitation
• Long hauls or standing on hard surfaces for extended periods
• Heavier horses with thin soles
• When softer neutral density cushion is needed than the standard turquoise orthotic provides
