see my post below but would the equlibrium stable chaps or similar do as good a job as stable bandages while my horse is in? Will get him a pair if they will be better, if not i'll stick with bandaging!
wraps or bandages?

No, bandages give more support and stop swelling...I worked in rehab...and the only alternative is a Pressage bandage...but they are so tight that fastening them is like trying to nail a jelly to the ceiling...

lol, thanks Shilasdair. I thought the bandages would provide more support just wasnt sure if that was the 'easiest' way! he's easy to do as he can hardly move!:-(

stable wraps are very good, I used to use them on Dutchie in the winter as otherwise his legs sometimes filled a little. They are also probably a lot less likely to cause pressure if they move etc. You know what horses are like!!
