[RC] Marquis boots - Jutta

I brought back a pair of these boots three years ago from the Equitana in Germany.  It seems that they put a lot of thought into these boots. They have an air chamber in the back that you pump up with a bicycle pump, to help them stay on. They are quite easy to put on, but I find them quite heavy. I also have concerns of the air chamber rubbing and causing sores if dirt gets inside. Never tried them on an endurance ride, just on little training rides. The gelding I got them for trips a lot, but then that might be just him. I no longer have him.
Kinda put the boots in a corner and forgot about them. I will try and weigh one of them tonight and compare the weight to an Easy Boot. Now that I remembered that I have a pair I will play with them this weekend and try them on a different horse. Will give you an update on Monday.
