Need to replace my old fetlock boots for horse as they are rubbish out hunting.

Can anyone recommend some really sturdy ones that will stay in place for a day's hunting in the vale?

I've got km elite air shock tendon and fetlock boots and I really like them. I've not used them hunting, but they've never moved hacking or showjumping and my mare has been turned out in her tendon boots in mud and they havnt moved or rubbed and have scrubbed up like new under a tap.

I would think carefully about using boots hunting as they can heat legs and trap mud etc which can rub and cause problems. Look at those who hunt regularly very few use any boots unless jumping walls and occasional over reach boots.

If you absolutely have to use them because your horse knocks himself regularly (rather than as a preventative measure) then try the NEW furry ones -they don't move and the fluffiness seems to keep the worst of the mud off
