following as they look would look easy to use at endurance rides!

I like them for post XC after washing off only good for around 20min or so before they start warming but keeps the cooling going longer than we can stand at the hose

I just use frozen ice cube bags/jay cloths and whack them under boots. Total cost £3.

Peas or cabbage mould around the leg better.

Unfortunately mine aren’t at home, so I can’t use that way, or I definitely would.

I have the same issue, if I use them on endurance rides I could be out riding for 3hrs before they get used, dunking in water would be the easiest thing for me.

Nor are mine. I have an amazing icebox which keeps things frozen for 3 days so that’s how I travel them all over the country for eventing. Even managed to keep them frozen for three day events and staying away as long as I don’t open the ice box.

I use wine coolers, if that helps. Not going to lie, mainly has I struggled to find any ce or cold boots small enough for my boy's legs but they work surprisingly well. Frozen at home & then I put them in insulated bags with some ice packs and they stay cold in my stable even after a long ride.

I’d be looking at being out of any freezer for about 8 hrs.

8 hours should be fine in a cool box
I leave home on Monday and use them Saturday PM…with limited storage too- hence using water not ice
