It is typically made from soft, padded material, such as fleece or cotton, and is wrapped around the horse's legs to provide support and protect against knocks, cuts, or bruises from contact with other horses, mallets, or the ground. The wrap is secured with Velcro or straps and covers areas like the lower leg and fetlock joints, offering both protection and comfort while allowing for flexibility and movement during the game.
