A farrier's speciality areas include horse shoeing and foot care. Farrier aprons are designed to shield the wearer's legs and clothing from the horse's hooves, hot metal, and pointed instruments. The entire front of the body, from the waist to the shins, is typically covered by them, and they are frequently made of sturdy leather or synthetic materials.
