My physio recommended that I get some stable wreaks today for my girl as her hind legs are filling overnight. I know that bandaging would be better but I use turnout services at my livery yard and I can't expect them to take the bandages off in the morning.

I did some research and the veredus ones seem good but very very expensive. I have been toying with the idea of magnets lately but I want these boots to stay on overnight and it was my understanding that magnets can't stay on for that long.

Does anyone have any recommendations ?
 
Have used both the cashel and premier equine ones for the exact situation that youve described (wraps rather than stable boots) and have found them to be just as good as bandages.
Only difference is Cashels are thicker and seem to last better (and more expensive)
PE ones start off thick but soon slim down.

Cant fault them and do exactly what i need them to do
 
We use lansdown and thermatex leg wraps, both brands are super at drying out damp legs and also prevent older mares legs filling overnight. It must be the warmth they offer that does it as there is no way you could do them tight enough to offer pressure (not that I would be happy leaving something on that tight overnight). I like the look of the shaping of the PE ones, but since the ones we have do the job very well I shan't be splurging on more!
