best XC boots for cobs?

[greycobb]

I own a welsh d X irish cob who i event BE80 - never booted her before but my instructor has suggested getting some XC boots for this season as we're going up to BE90. She's not a heavy, hairy cob but she does have chunky legs; cob-size boots aren't wide enough and full-size boots are too long. The only medium-extra-wide boots i can find are brushing boots but ideally i would like boots suited more to cross country, i.e. breathable and more protective.

Anyone know of any XC boots that come in wide sizes, or that fit chunky cob legs??

Would something like PE xc boots with the one big strap now work? They suit our cob. I'll try and get a link to the ones I mean.

Actually look on countryandstable.co.uk.
Dalmar eventer boots are more the thing I was thinking!

I recently bought some woof wear xc boots for my absolute beast of a Welsh cob. Medium on the front and large hinds. They fit really well. The boots aren't the really expensive ones, they were about £40/pair.

I have PE air cooled event boots for my Welsh D. I have small on front & hind despite her being 15.1hh. They don't have measurements on the site but if you call they will give them to you. They are good fit, I got mine in the 30% off sale.

I use the Le mieuex stealth xc boots on my cob.

N.E.W do boots in short/ wide, I have a pair for super chunky legged highland and they fit well.
