Tendon boots - front & back

[horsegirl]

Can anyone recommend some tendon boots, pref velcro rather than buckles but don't mind what they are made from but they do need to be supportive and reasonably priced?

Dont really use them but Prem Eq Int are very reasonable.

Eskadron - a bit more pricey but worth putting the money in i say!

You do pay for what you get though. Eskadron ones are excellent, especially the lovely sheepskin lined ones.

Veredus are the best by far and no faffy sheepskin to mess about with

I much prefer the leather buckle ones but they are muchos faff if you have a horse that doesnt like four feet on the ground ever.

What are they for? XC, sj or all round?

Just all round use, he has had tendon problems in the past and wit hthe ground being very boggy at the moment I would like to give his legs a bit of support.

Sorry one more thing, I've never really used boots on a horse before (except brushing boots & overreach boots) the eskadron boots look very nice but can they be used on the hind legs too?

Ah, well thing you would be better off with sports medicine type boots that offer support thn things for protection as such!!

 

[horsegirl]

Where would I find those? Any website links?
