Susan, here in the West they don't have any rules against using sport boots,
to my knowledge but I rarely see anyone using them. I did for one ride and
my horse ended up with swelling in his legs and the vet said she has seen
that with use on rides. I think they are entended for short workouts, anyone
have ideas why sport boots are not used by endurance riders? curious also,
Linda
