Vented tendon boots

[quiteniceforacob]

So I’ve been looking at the equilibrium tendon boots for a pair that don’t make legs too hot having read all the research that scares me off other boots.

However, it looks like there are other options and I feel overwhelmed.

Has anyone got experience or recommendations of any of the below (or others?!)

- equilibrium tri-zone
- uhlan airflow
- shires arma

Just for showjumping. Would prefer white but would obviously compromise on that!

I have the Gatusos Air Tendon & Fetlock boots, they look a bit weird but found they kept my horses legs far cooler than any of the other ones I’d tried, and were so much easier to keep clean too!

The Equilibrium Tri Zone are good. They keep the legs cool, don't slip, are pretty hard wearing. They look clunky but are super light - just not a slick fit. The pair I have are looking a bit worn after 3 years of pretty continual use. I reckon I will buy another pair as they tick all the boxes, except for being 'fitted to form' - pretty square and boxy.

I have the premier equine vented airflow event boots which my vet physio said was the best thing on the market at the time when I used to event many moons back now. PE do a air vented tendon boot, it looks really nice and is to a high spec.
