FAQ

Do you still have questions about Recuptex®?

We collected the most asked questions & answers on the Recuptex® products.
Don’t hesitate to reach out to us if you have any inquiries.

What is Recuptex?

Recuptex is a fabric that has fine stainless-steel fibers woven into the yarn. It is a Belgian technology that was originally developed for pregnant women in China. These women wanted to protect their babies from magnetic fields and beams. Thanks to the stainless-steel fibers, the Recuptex fabric creates a cage of Faraday to repel the beams and conduct the body’s magnetic fields. At Kentucky Horsewear, we use the Recuptex fabric to improve your horse’s health.

Does it really work?
The Recuptex really works however, it does not change your horse in just one blink. We advise to use the products for at least 30 minutes. If you have a Recuptex product or when you’re in the store you can test the fabric by putting your phone in it. You will notice that all your signals will be lost as it reflects the magnetic fields from the outside.
What happens when I use a Recuptex product?
The technology protects your horse from magnetic fields from the outside but also uses the horse’s magnetic field. The stainless-steel fiber conducts the horse’s body heat and improves blood circulation. By doing this, you can treat and prevent various medical issues. The Recuptex fabric relaxes the horse’s muscles and thus your horse will be more relaxed. You will notice this in his behavior, your horse can start yawning for example, but also during riding as your horse will feel more flexible.
For which issues can you use Recuptex?
The Recuptex products can be used for lots of different problems. It can help with arthritis or tendon problems. It can also be used on horses with swollen legs or really any muscle issue. As the Recuptex technology works only with your horse’s magnetic fields it cannot harm your horse. And a small office insider: if you ever have a stiff neck, you can put the neckpiece in your neck, and this will reduce the stiffness.
How long can I leave a Recuptex product on?
When you introduce a Recuptex product to your horse, it’s important to do it in small sessions. The Recuptex can feel a bit tingly in the beginning, this is why we recommend starting with 5 minutes and slowly increase the time. When your horse is fully used to the feeling you can choose how long you leave the products on. Some people use it 2 hours before and after training for warming up and cooling down, while others use it 24/7. The good thing about the Recuptex is that there’s no over usage as it is not a magnetic rug.
Is a Recuptex product washable?
Yes, a Recuptex product is washable and does not lose its quality. As we use stainless steel fibers from Bekaert and no minerals or magnets, every Recuptex product is a lifelong purchase. You can wash your Recuptex products at 30 degrees. Do not tumble dry afterward.
At what temperatures can I use the Recuptex rug?
Because the Recuptex rug is very light you can use it all year. because of the mesh, the rug can be used in summer for fly prevention. During winter you can easily use the Recuptex rug as an under rug and combine it with other Kentucky rugs.
Can you use the boots for big horses or ponies?
The Recuptex boots come in a size full and fit most horses. If you’re not sure if this will fit your horse you can try the Recuptex bandages in combination with our repellent stable bandages, this will fit for sure!
Can you use the boots on both the front and hind legs?
The Recuptex boots can indeed be used on both front and hind legs. you only have to choose between the left and right sides of the horse. The boots can be worn in the stable or during transport.
Do professionals use Recuptex products too?
Yes, professionals are a big fan of the Recuptex technology and use it before and after training or competitions. One of our ambassadors Camille Condé wrote this about our Recuptex products: The Recuptex rug is a product that I really appreciate, I use it regularly in preparation. I put it on my horses about 45 minutes before training them, it allows me to prepare the body of my horses as well as possible. I really see the difference with each use. For example, I feel that the body of my horses is more easily ready for the effort, the body is more relaxed and easier to work.

I love using the Recuptex rug on a daily basis because it is great for the horses' well-being. The Recuptex Rug helps my horses recover faster after an intense training, especially after a canter or cross-country training, and that’s why I always have it with me on competitions.
In my opinion it is perfect for horses that need support for their backs because the Recuptex rug helps to loosen the muscles.

I have been using the therapy blanket for a number of months now and I am very satisfied. sometimes I only wear it for a workout but when I notice that my bangs are a bit tighter I leave it on overnight. even when I go to a competition I wear it on the wagon for an extra loose pony. it is a beautiful quality and it looks good on my ponies

Paris Vandousselaere

★★★★★
I am very satisfied with this blanket! I feel a big difference when I don't use it and when I use it. my horses feel much more relaxed. Their muscles are also much looser and after a hard workout it also helps for muscle recovery and against being stiff the day after. I also want to say that it helped my previous horse because she was a very stiff horse and she sometimes got mean because her muscles really couldn't keep up.

I have a Kentycky recuptex rug and i love it. It fits so good and the horse is much better after using it. The muscles are loving it. So i would not change it for anything. Keep up the good work because your rugs are great. I don't have boots yet but some day...

I have been using the recuptex boots on my horse for a while now. And I am very positive about it. My horse has arthrosis and can be very stiff if she hasn't done anything on an day of. Sometimes she is a little bit uneven when starting her up with riding. So I thought lets try those recuptex boots. And now she wears them at night in her stable. And mostly eith riding I can feel the difference. She is easier to start up and is less uneven. I am really happy with the recuptex boots!
In the near future I really eant to buy the recuptex rug

Agréablement surprise sur l’effet. Je mets que 5 minutes la première fois et dès que j’ai enlevé il avait une véritable différence de chaleurs. Bien hâte de voir l’effet à long terme mais j’ai confiance !

I now use the Recuptex boots since June 2019.
Unfortunately my Pony had an injured tendon and resulted from that problems with his lymph flow. At this point he was twenty years old.
I bought the recuptex boots. As I tried them on he immediately started to chew and yawned. You could really see how fast he startet to relax. The boots helped a lot with the swelling and I now use them often before training. His tendon is fully healed and he is back on his M-S dressage level.
Of course I tried them on my other horse too.
He also relaxed immediately. Now I use them as travelboots as well and my horse is much more relaxed on the trailer.
I would recommend the boots to everyone who is looking for therapeutic boots.
I used them myself as well. Unfortunately an old injury in my knee keeps hurting from time to time. So I taken two boots and wrapped them around my knee and the pain became less.

We love our Recuptex blanket more than anything. We use them before training and our pony runs much more loosely. We use the blanket as an under rug in winter and it also helps against flies during the summer. We can only recommend this great blanket!

★★★★★
Ik ben echt super tevreden over de recuptex deken! Mijn paard heeft hem bijna 24/7 op en is veel soepeler onder het rijden. Als hij hem niet op heeft gehad voel ik meteen verschil!
Verder heb ik ook gebruik mogen maken van de recuptex boots, toen mijn paard een flink ongeluk had gehad en ze hebben super geholpen, om zijn herstel te versnellen!

I have bought the Recuptex Boots for my horse in 2020 when he has had a tendon injury.
It healed really fast and we never ever have had any problems with it again. My Vet was also very excited about the magnetic field and recommended me to use them.
The durability is very good. My horse never managed to destroy one of the velcros or pull them off, he rather really seemed to enjoy wearing them.
Now I am using them to help my horse recover after training or put them on before training to help prevent tendon injuries.
I would recommend the recuptex Boots to horses with tendon injuries or as an alternative to „normal“ stable boots, because they are very durable and help the horse due to the magnetic technology.
