Jen,

I have used all kinds, and personally prefer the ultra suede ones made by 
TuffRider. They are velcro, but a long wide strip up the entire leg instead 
of horizontal single strips. I liked the pair I had so well after 2 yrs of 
hard use, that I went in search of another pair for when these eventually 
wear out. You can throw them in the wash, hang em up to dry and they look 
brand new. They are light and not hot.

www.equestriancollections.com has them. They are called UltraGrip and are 
only $36. I find them to  last a long time, and be comfortable as well.

Good luck!
