Turnout boots?> Please recommend.

As title please. My 4 year old, is a typical holigan, and has been coming in with cut on the inside of his legs, from brushing them.

So what are the best turnout boots?

i used to use just a cheap pair of brushing boots but obviously they dont cover as much as the proper ones

I love my equichaps and also have full length gaiters, both brill

Are brushing boots breathable, and would they be ok to leave on all day?

I have heard od equichaps but not gaiters?

I have the long equi chap type turnout boots. Not as good as brushing boots for brushing injuries but do protect the heel also. Main problem is mud. They get really damp and dirty and if they're too bad I wouldn't put them back on until fully dried. In fact I ended up taking them home every 2 days and washing them in the washing machine. I did break the washing machine within a short time though clogging it up! Whatever boots you use remember not to leave on for 24 hours a day.

Gaiters-thats the name of the brand not sure if there not a bit old school now, cant find them on net!
Equichaps are breathable and serious recomend! They also do brush boots of the same material!
