Good hind boots for eventing?

[kayleigh_and_rocky]

Rocks always has to wear fetlock boots as he brushes very badly behind - and i've always gone XC in full hind tendon boots incase he hits something.
I have the woof wear elite XC boots atm and the front boots are fantastic but the back ones slip even when taped on.
So two questions.
Should i go for full boots or just fetlock boots?

And which boots do you recommend?

I would recommend the NEW hind boots with the tendon guard.

They've never slipped with me and I find the tendon guard puts my mind at rest should they hit something hard behind.

I wouldn't have thought fetlock boots would particularly do much for xc and probably would tend to slip more IMO.

Prolites. NEVER move, fab cannon bone guard and good shape

I'd second that. Worn his through water, mud etc. never slipped! And good protection

Thanks for all your replies. I had a look on the NEW website and i'm loving their new cooling XC boots - might save up for them!
