My horse wore the Equilibrium Therapy Magnetic Chaps throughout the winter this year. He had them on overnight while stabled for about 12 hours.
I really like these chaps because they fit your horse’s leg really well and don’t fall down and drag on the ground. Although they are a neat fit, they still allow enough room for movement. My horse has sensitive skin and rubs easily but they didn't cause any chafing even though they were worn for long periods of time.
His legs swell up overnight, particularly his back right leg, which suffered an injury three years ago. The Equilibrium Therapy Magnetic Chaps helped keep his legs warm but not only that there was no swelling to be found the next day. What I like about the detachable magnets is that you can move them to where you want or where your horse has had an injury.
The chaps are very well made and still look as good as new even though they are two years old. They seemed to repel dirt and my bedding didn't tend to stick to them too much. When they did look a tad dirty I just took the magnets off and put them in the washing machine.
There are quite a few Velcro straps, meaning they were a bit of a hassle to get on due to the fact the Velcro was extremely sticky but this meant that they fitted to the leg very well and stayed in place each night.
The Equilibrium Therapy Magnetic Chaps are quite expensive but worth every penny. I now know that my horse’s legs aren’t going to swell up like balloons if I keep him in overnight. Brilliant product and can be purchased online at Tic Tac Equestrain for just £64.99.
