Eventing boots - PE or Lemieux?

I got the Le Memiuex stealth metallic and they are lovely boots PLUS they look gorgeous on my boy who's grey and white. The PE ones do look very nice too, some people I know have those, I think both makes are on a par so it's probably just which ones you like the look of most.
 
I use the PE ones and love them, they're so lightweight. The air panels are awesome.
I haven't personally used the LM ones but a friend has them and I think they're also extremely good quality. the air panels on the PE ones swing it for m, but both are good I think!
 
I use the PE ones and they are fab. They last a long time and always look smart.
I have had to replace the back boots twice in about 8 years due to my mare managing to snap the guards but they always replace them straight away free of charge.
The only thing I have found is that the new front boots I have got seem to always twist around unless they are taped up tightly. But maybe I am just not pulling the straps tight enough.
 
I've got the PE ones and have to say I'm not that keen. I find that they slip as soon as they get wet, even when secured with tape. Might be that the fit isn't exactly right on my horse's legs though or something like that causing it. The fronts seem OK but quite disappointed with the backs.
 
PE are great, if your horse has the right shaped legs. They will slip on some horses, I have two horses that they fit brilliant on, have took some real abuse out hunting and xc on many occasions and still look great! Saw the Lemieux on another horse out last week, didn't really like the look of them that much compared to PE but still seem good boots, and probably going to buy a set for my horse that doesn't get along with PE./
