Horse Tack Supplies

I bought these, and they lasted about 48 hours. They slouch, get stepped on, and torn easily. If you do put them on tight enough, they rub really bad.

This product rubbed my horses legs in a cupple places and now has bald spots on his legs. They also fall really easily, and my horse has big legs he is a 16.2 quarter horse draft mix and they would still fall off, they also stain your horses legs.

They would work well, but they 'slouch' down to the ground, and get under my horse's heels. I've tried every way (short of cutting off his circulation in his legs !) to get them to stay up when he walks around with them. The design could use vertical support "ribs" woven/sewn into the fabric to keep them up where they belong to actually protect my horse from flies biting his legs .....(which is the purpose for putting them on in the first place, right?). "Get these at the "garage sale" and sew in your own support ribs !" :-(

I have 2 pairs of these boots that have lasted for a couple seasons. I have found that they do NOT work in muddy conditions, so I use other fly boots in the spring and when it's been rainy. However, once my horse's paddock is dry, these are great because they're so light weight. She is a Thoroughbred with long skinny legs and lots of skin issues on her legs (fungus, rain rot, etc). Plus, she is driven crazy by flies. These boots are great because they provide plenty of fly protection and yet, best of all, let her skin breathe. All the heavier boots, like the Kensington type material, make the skin conditions worse because no sunlight reaches her skin and I think her legs are sweaty in there, plus they rub. Granted, my horse is older and quiet and in a paddock, not an open pasture, so there isn't a huge amount of wear and tear on any of her clothing. But, I find that all fly boots tend to fall apart pretty quickly. Yes, I've resewed some velcro strips after a year or two of use, but at least that's an option with these because of the light weight material.

I bought two sets of these and I've used at least 2 spools of thread sewing the straps back on. Sold them on our yard sale!

These wraps are great if your horse is not in tall grass and rotate them on and off. Nice and light. The quality is not great but they work for what I got them for. I do not recommend for horses who are very active in the field, they will come off. Overall, I would buy these again.

I bought these fly boots for my horse who doesnt have fly allergies and never bothers his clothes and he ripped them in half within 2 minutes of me putting them on. It is a great price but the quality/strength definately shows in the price. Would have been better off taking the $17 dollars and putting it towards a better quality pair.

The price was reasonable, but the product did not hold up. upon placing them on my horses legs, the mesh was not sturdy enough to hold them in position, they would slouch down and gather around his feet, then causing him to step on them and tearing them. they only held up for one use...a complete waste of time and money.

I just purchased the Defender Fly Legwraps for my horse and I have to say that these are a must have for any horse owner. The Velcro closures are very secure in keeping them in place. You may see a little slouchyness but all you need to do is ajust the velcro. To make them more effective, just spray them with fly spray. My horse doesn't injure himself with his legs to keep the flys off him. If your horse is not familiar with the wraps, it may take a day for him to ajust. My guy did!

These leg wraps are a TOTAL WASTE of MONEY. The velcro ripped off two of them after only one day. Extremely poor quality and they do not stay up on the legs. I bought 3 sets for my 3 horses and all were ripped within a week. PLEASE save your money and pass on this product.

Good product especially for the price! It took him a few minutes to get used to them on his back legs but he's fine with them now. I don't hear the stomping of feet so they must be working!! Just make sure you wrap them snug around the legs as they will slide down a bit.

I got these for my Arabian. He doesn't like them on his back legs but doesn't mind them on his front legs. They do slide a little but that's typical for small Arabian legs. They do stay quite well once they settle in a good spot. He is also very intelligent and playful but he does not play or nip at the leg wraps. Therefore, they must be helping keep those flies off.

These fly wraps did not last even a week. The first one broke two hours after putting it on. The second one broke the day after. The velcro ripped in half before the stitching. My horse is alone in a pasture so I know another horse didn’t rip it off. They may be a good price but they are not worth it if you have to replace them once a week.

I bought these and I was really excited!! They aren't stiff and the fleece is really nice. As soon as I got them I went and put them on my TB, they were a little big for him, he has short cannons and he has slender legs. They stayed up well and didn't slip. I left them on and put him in his stall, (he's boarded and is stalled 24/7 unfortunately) The next day I went out and one of the fly wraps was off and the others were slipping down his legs. I looked closely and realize that the velcro had completely come off the other side. it didn't come unsewed, it just.. ripped apart. I looked at the others, and every single one was like that. He is not rough on his clothes either, I assume he might have rubbed his legs a little and laid down, but other than that, he can't do anything else. I was so disappointed. :( They need to reinforce the velcro better so it doesn't rip apart so easily, such as what they do for splint boots, where you weave it through a metal ring and back. Overall, I wouldn't buy these again myself. It was a waste of $12, but then again I was expecting it a little. $12 for a set of fly boots? The material is good quality, and the fleece is really nice as well, but unless you can find some way to enforce the velcro I recommend buying a more expensive set. :)

These fly boots are even better than the original defender fly boots because these have more velcro for horses that have smaller legs so they stay up better! And I love that they come in a set of four.
