Sadly flawed
I want to love these… I really do. They look good and are constructed well. However BOT needed to put an elastic on these. They take twice the time to put on as other tendon boots. The velcro straps are somewhat rough, sharp, and stiff. There is no getting the boot to stay in the right place, every ride they slip down and let sand in. The shell and material is perfect tho, and they are not too long. Elastic PLEASE bot!

Very Disappointed
I had such high hopes for these boots. They are absolutely beautiful boots, however, there is a major design flaw. They changed from the elastic fasteners in the previous version to this velcro rubber/plastic fastener. No matter how tight you make them, they slide down. If you finally get them tight enough to not slide (because there is no elastic give in the straps) it cuts into the horse's leg (has a sharp square hard edge on the strap) and it is so tight there is no way it is good for the leg's circulation. I measured my horse as instructed on the BOT website and followed their exact sizing. I really am sad about having to send these back. I love BOT and have the previous version and love them. The new hind boots that match also turn and slide because they only have one oddly placed velcro fastener. The previous version had two elastic straps like the Equifit DTeq Boots. So sad but hopefully it will be fixed. If they put on new fasteners they would be fantastic and I would order them again!
