brushing boots and an online site (not DH) to buy them from!

In the spirit of 'shutting the stable door once the horse is out' I feel I should wear brushing boots all round when hacking AFTER my girl managed to puncture her leg on a hack today :( she has went 20 years of being ridden, competed at endurance to the highest level and has never worn boots. Today she climbs an embankment trying to get away from the horse eater (aka the collapsed gate) and comes home with a puncture wound on her tendon. Given bute and will keep an eye on it though chances are it'll be a vet call out for proper drugs...so boots, no expense spared just want something that give good protection and fits well, she's an Arab so pretty skin legs!

ETA: cookie for getting this far! This thread wasn't meant to be so long but I feel a rant was needed! :)
 
I use WoofWear double locking brushing boots and they are great, mine are almost 5 years old now and just starting to go. I use them every time I ride (6-7 times a week) and she is now turned out in them as well. My friend used Premier Equine and loves those too. I am a bit of a boot queen and my girl wears knee boots too!
 
:)Another vote for woof wear
But I much prefer the single locking ones, double ones are annoying.
My WW boots were my mums and are still going strong over 20yrs old and they've been through the washing machine a fair few times
 
Thanks for the recommendations! I quite like the look of the pro oxy but I really need all round protection not tendon boots :( why are all the nice looking boots open fronted! Damn Sjers with all their stylish boots! I suppose I could settle for the ultra, don't look as cool but they look like they would provide really good protection...now where to buy them :)
