Been using the Mark Todd brushing boots on my mare. used them at home whenever I lunged her or rode her which was around 20 mins lunge, hlf an hour riding, she is now in livvery so I have help with schooling, her work is now around 45 mins to an hour riding but today noticed she has rubs on her front fetlocks (outside only) and it is where the bottom of the boot is, now she needs boots cos she is a bit unbalanced and I don't want her hurting herself (though did ride today without boots) what are the best type of brushing boots to go for that don't rub ?
 
I use Clarendon. I prefer the softer type boot.

I have some that where the hard moulded type and they rubbed.
 
Clarendon are lovely and they have a soft fleece lining. I have them for Henry. They aren't cheap though! But worth it as I've xc'd in mine in horrble mud and water, bunged the boots in the washing maching and they've come up good as new!
 
I use clarendon for competitions, but just woof wear ones for daily use. My old girl has had her woof wears for years now; they've been through the washing machine countless times - still do the job and have never rubbed

ive just brought a pair of (expensive) professional choice SMB elite and i think they are fab. they look more like socks for horses but are made of neoprine like material and cover the whole lower leg. they also stop dirt and thingys getting down the boot and im told they last almost forever!
 
I use the Equilibrium training wraps for everyday. They are brill as my girl is funny about boots on her back legs but she accepts these with no problem.
I have them in white so they are getting washed a few times a week and come up really well.
