Reccomend me some over-reach boots....not the rubber ones!

[skychick]

Need to get 2 pairs of overreach boots....one for field use (but not rubber as they last a day or 2 max!)
and one for schooling.
What do people prefer....woofwear, mark tod competition ones, professionals choice? which ones seem to be the toughest to destroy?!?!?!

The field ones take the most abuse ;-)

I like my eskadron ones

I used the P.E. ones last winter for turnout (the ballistic ones) but they rubbed like mad. My horse has senstive skin and I can only get away with the pull on rubber ones for field use. I did try the velcro rubber ones but like you say they pulled apart within a week each time. The pull on ones Im using at the moment have been on 24/7 for the past 6 weeks and are still intact! If you havent tried a pull on pair of rubber overreach boots, they might work. Just a thought.

i have to admit mine is a bit sensitive too....she has got some woof wear ones which can rub too, whic need replacing as the mice had a bit too much fun with them! so the rubber ones were better from a rubbing point of view! but she bust them the day after i bought them pratting about in the field!
Pull on ones could be worth a go.....i will try it.

I can recommend these -

had mine a year and they still look as good as new, I only use them when I ride though.

If you shop about you can get them cheaper (I bought another pair as a spare but never used them and paid only £20 in a sale)

I found eskadron with fur for field and eskadron without fur for schooling ect. I found that they are extremely hard wearing and the fur round the edges means that you dont get any hair loss or marks around the coronet band

Westrop Ones. The petal ones. We used to call them clicky clacky boots when we were kids. They live forever and if u do break them just need to pop a spare petal on.

I had two pairs of Mark Todd, the no turn ones, that fell apart at the seams (literally!) after one XC schooling session! I then got a pair of Trizone, which survived a seasons eventing and schooling looking like new - they got chucked in the washing machine after every use as well!

I have red white and blue westrop ones for the field - you can't loose them and as other post states just swap out any broken petals. I pick up mine on ebay or horsey car boot sales.
