Does anyone use these and would you recomend?
Have heard conflicting ideas about whether you should use stable boots and bandages, because of over heating tendons.

Found this on the web.....
Recent advanced research studies have proven that bandages inhibit blood and lymph flow and as a result can damage the tendons. Even when applied professionally conventional bandages and multi strap boots seriously restrict the flow of blood and lymph through the lower leg. Blood and lymph deprivation results in necrotic cell degeneration, which, like a heat lesion is not initially detected, but can cause the onset of a tendon injury. Except in cases of injury treatment bandages should not be used on healthy horses.
