"After reading reviews online that these boots run on the large side I was a bit worry that they might not fit my guy. He is 15.3 hands and the boots fit him perfectly. They look awesome too and are of outstanding good quality. They look they gonna last for a very LONG time! I certainly would recommend these boots, oh yah!"

"A previous pair of these boots lasted too many years to remember, two horses, and an obscene amount of travel to clinics, shows, etc., during those years."

"I had ordered shipping boots elsewhere a couple years ago for our mare. I hated using them because they were black which made them really hot in the sun and she didn't walk well in them. After reading horror stories about hauling, I decided it was time to revisit shipping boots. I ordered these in pink to have a lighter, cooler color and because they're just so stylish! Ha! I worried they wouldn't fit her because she's a 15'3 solid paint and has dainty legs. They may be just a little big for her, but they stay on like a charm due to the contouring. I really like these boots. I think our Dixie likes them too, well as much as she will ever like shipping boots anyway."

"I love Kensington products -- can't beat them for quality and fun plaid colors. BUT they really need to offer these boots in a cob size. My mare is 15.2 and around 1150# and these boots were rediculously HUGE on her. I believe I could have wrapped her in pillow wraps and still fit these boots over the wraps! If you have a 17 hand big-boned warmblood -- these are the boots for you. If not, I'd look elsewhere for shipping boots.
I read the other reviews before purchasing and was leary as many said they were quite large. However, since SmartPak offers free return shipping (thank you!) I thought I'd give them a try -- could they really be THAT big? Um, yes! Returning these boots. KENSINGTON: PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE OFFER THESE IN COB SIZE!!"

"I bought two pairs of Kensington shipping boots, one in pink and one in blue plaid.
My husband and I love them. There is lots of room for large and XL horses. There are bumpers on the back which will definately keep them in tact. The fabric is very durable and I am glad I spent the extra money and bought Kensington.

"I bought this set of boots to protect my horse on a particularly long trip across country. Hes a stocky 15.3 horse, and they fit him great.
The boots are very tough, and firm, they don't slump like other shipping boots do. I like the protective bumper on the bottom, its a nice feature Ive never seen in any other boot. They're extremely easy to put on and adjust, no hassle or worry with these boots. They're also easy to clean and keep their shape after alot of abuse. I have the entire line of kensington products, and i love them. Nothing holds up like the kensington brand"

"I love these shipping boots. I bought them for the blue plaid color since all of my pony's gear is the SmartBlue plaid. The boots are great - very soft and super padded. The only problem I had was the hind boots do not fit him as well as the front boots do. The velcro did not keep them on, and they were way too tall for him (he's about 14.1 hands). Other than that, I love them. They look great, and I feel safe trailering my horse when he is wearing these!"

"Absolute best shipping boots out there. The colors (I bought Smart Blue Plaid) give a unique stand out touch. I purchased these for a trip from MD to VA for eventing nationals. Before my horse was even off the ramp of the trailer, someone shouted and called them bootylicious. We stopped for food on the way and to check on the horses, the boots did not slip an inch. Very padded and very durable. Survived the mud of the entire event and came out of the wash like new. Now all they need to do is come out with different sizes! (These fit my 17.2h thoroughbred like a glove but definitely would not fit my 15h quarter horse.)"

"I have had several pairs of shipping boots, these are by far my favorite. They are well made with strong stitching, durable material, and velcro that actually holds. The heel guards are thin, but strong. My only wish is that they specified different sizes, one size fits all is not always good. (To give you an idea, they fit my 17.2h thoroughbred well.) They come shipped flattened so I took rolled up news paper to break the folding a bit and round them out, helped them fit a ton better."

"These are by far the best shipping boots. all my stuff is the Kensington Smatpak blue, including these. My trainer says these are some of the best shiping boots she's ever seen! They're so padded, and so soft! My horse loves them! The colors make them fun for the owner, and they're so cozy and nice for the horse.
They're not cheap, that's for sure, but I really think they're worth it. They even survived a barn mouse snacking on them! And are still soft and supple!
