I was hoping these would work
My horse brushes his hind legs in work and turn-out, and I was hoping the hind boots would help shield his fetlocks while we worked with the farrier to balance him out better. Unfortunately, he destroyed the bottom of the boots in a few months, first the softer neoprene "skirt", and cracked the hard shell.
On the positive side: The boots fit him well, did not move when wet, didn't cause any sore or rub, and clearly prevented him from doing damage to his limbs.
On the negative side: I only used them for 4 months, riding on average 3x a week, so maybe 50 times total. I wish they had been longer lasting.

BEST Boots ever
These are by far the best riding boots on the market. They are durable and offer great protection. Fit my fussy 16.3 TB wonderfully. They stay in the water, and I mean they stay in great. I’ve galloped in the ocean and they will stay on no sweat. Did I mention they offer great protection? My horse and I had a knarly riding accident while wearing these boots and I swear they saved her from doing serious damage to her hind legs. They are well worth the money. After 5 years they finally broke(due the riding accident) but so lucky that I had these amazing boots on. +5 stars

Perfect XC Boot
I purchased these to use XC on my 16'3 TB. They fit him perfectly. The closures are solid and I love that the outside velcro has a snap for extra security. The boots do not become waterlogged (the main problem with my previous neoprene boots) and so they remain in place with no worry of slipping. They fully wrap around his leg for complete protection. I also have the open front version for show jumping and they have held up perfectly over several years so I'm confident these will hold up just as well. Super value too!

Great product!
I bought these less than a month ago looking for a xc boot that had a hard outer shell to provide additional protection. They fit my barely 16 hand, finer boned thoroughbred well and provide great tendon coverage. Will be looking forward to seeing how they wear.

Superb!
Took a chance wearing these for the first time at an event. Made it through 2 water elements and around a tough track. Seems like these boots provide excellent protection and mold right to my mare's legs without being restrictive. Only wish I had bought them sooner! She now wears them at home in turnout and whenever we jump.

Invest upfront- these are THE boots
These boots are the only boots I will ever use. I tried various other kinds and had problems with fit, especially once wet from water jumps. (Thanks SmartPak for letting me return). I then finally spent the money on these boots and it is worth it. Just invest up front. They are comfortable for the horse, hold shape, don't hold water and are durable. I feel my horses legs are safe in them which is worth any amount of money.

great boots!
I borrowed these boots from a friend to go school cross country, and initially I was quite wary of these boots. After using them I really like them and plan to get a set for my gelding. They stay on very well, I loved the snap closure over the velcro straps. They didn't slide at all- even after we went through the water, and they didn't fill up with sand.
I will say, I am not sure how long it would take them to dry...
But I am thoroughly impressed with these boots and the protection they offer.
