Wondering what everyone's fave boots for general schooling in the warm are?

My young ponio is still naturally learning where her feet go, and not so strong behind so has a tendancy to knock/tread on herself from time to time especially after a growth spurt (thank you spring grass!!) which I fully expect her to carry on doing until she's about 7 like the rest of her family.
So, no boots behind = not an option, but am very aware that keeping tendons etc... from overheating is key for good leg health.....
Even riding early and late she still has sweaty legs under climatex liners & polos or the equilibrium tri-zone.
She is also a special child and other than clouting herself, has easily rubbed skin... plus if she starts getting hot or the leg wear is not comfortable, she will try and pull them off, though is a little angel when comfy.

sooo, recommendations? :)
 
I tend not to boot but when I do I use the Equiilibrium Stretch and Flex which don't get the legs too hot. They may not offer the protection you are after though.
 
I just use our normal ones (one horse wears Woof club boots and the other has Equilibrium stretch & flex)

take them off as soon as we're finished and wash off well. I stick the boots through the wash regularly if they get sweaty.
 
have you had a look at husk boots? I personally don't have any but have heard very good things apart from they are reasonably expensive
 
thanks guys :) :)

I've wondered about the Husks, but struggled to find any 'independent' reviews (I.e. Not on Husk FB). They sound pretty good, as do the cheaper stretch & flex. Decisions!
Has anyone used real fleece lined boots?
