Tubigrip to keep feather clean??? Yes or No?

[KINDMARE]

After washing and drying legs would you turn out with tubigrip on for couple of hours to keep feathers/knees clean? if so what size woudl you get?
I would like to turn out for leg stretch for a couple of hours before a show as we dont have to leave until lunch time, but dont want feathers to get dirty?
Thanks

No. I would not. Clean stable only

The trouble is they’ll kink the hair. I once turned my cob out In them accidentally after the farrier left and when I remembered a few hours later and removed them he looked like he’d been dragged through a hedge. If you are very careful about laying the hair flat it could work I suppose.
My cob has the thigh size.

I wouldn't with tubigrib no, due to the compression element.
In the hospital we have something called blue line, you also get yellow line and green line.
If you Google that, it is a bandage that has no compression element however is lightly elasticated to cover dressings etc in hospital.
I'd be happy to use that on feathers for a couple of hours?

I’m sure there’s actual feather bags you can get. I’ll try and see if I can see them again.

I would just turn out early and wash legs when I bring in before leaving
