Essentially, whomever was using the screen printer to put the logo onto both of the Futi I recieved, didn't allow them to dry long enough. Either that or they were stored someplace incredibly hot which caused the logo to become stuck to the storage bag. I peeled it off, but now one of the logos on the Futi has a big crease in it, and the inside of the storage bag has little imprints of ink. I don't mind since they're meant to get a little dirty anyhow, but the Muck Boot Company should let them dry a little longer before stuffing them into the storage bag.

I purchased the FUTI boot covers for my paddock boots because I sometimes need to walk through muddy areas but did not want to have to purchase an entirely new pair of shoes. I'm very pleased with them. It took some initial stretching to get them over my boots, but they fit great, are comfortable, and I really feel like they are keeping my paddock boots protected. I haven't tried washing them yet, but it seems like they will be pretty easy to clean. And for the price, I don't really care if they eventually get ruined, though they seem like they will be holding up for a long time!
Definitely would recommend.

I was given a pair a few years ago for Christmas and loved them! So it was time for a new pair and I purchased a pair for myself and gave some this time for a Christmas present also.

The day after I got these I went to a H/J show in the pouring rain and was glad I had them. They kept my feet warm and dry and my tall boots polished until I was ready to go in the ring. The only thing is that they aren't that easy to get on in a pinch. Tried to put them back on right after my classes, but with a horse in hand you can't. I'm hoping they'll go on and off easier once I've stretched them out a bit. Definitely worth the money to protect my tall boots!

I believe some purchase this product to keep their feet warm and some buy them to keep their feet dry. But I have always used FUTIs for a different reason.
When buying a new pair of boots whether they be field boots, dress boots, or even paddock boots you must start thinking about protecting them to make them last ( because lets face it, they aren't cheap!) FUTI is just that! I wear them to protect the part of the boot that always seem to need repair first, the sole separating from the toe. This product is perfect for preventing this from happening. FUTI prevents moisture, dirt and everyday wear from direct contact with thr toe of the boot. And all riders know that once this damage is done it is near impossible to prolong the life of your boots.
I love mine and I'll always wear a pair to keep my boots "show quality" for as long as possible.

I purchased these after having borrowed a pair from a friend and they are great for keeping your toes warm. I foxhunt and nothing has worked as well to keep my feet warm and secure while out on the hunt. They do not protect your boots from water like the rubber versions.

FUTI's are astonishingly warm; from the moment I pulled them over my normal every day paddock boots I have felt nothing but warm and dry. They also have unbelievable traction, and because they are worn over a boot, the support is excellent. My only criticism -- and it is minor -- is that the FUTI is fit for a pointed toe, so my squarish-toed boot leaves a little "air space" in the FUTI toe. No bother...as long as these are available, I will never waste money buying a winter riding/paddock boot again.

I am really disappointed in these. They seem to suck up the water then they take forever to dry. While they have an amazing grip, dirt still found its way into my boots and the footies. When I take them off dirt falls out in huge amounts. Totally not worth the money. :(

We trudge thru snow to our indoor and the Futi will keep my boots from getting wet very well. Riding in 20 degrees my feet also seem to stay warmer. I'm not so sure about the easy on/off though, they took a few minute to stretch around the heel of my boot.

I can highly recommend the FUTI. It is an excellent and well made product. It protects your boot without adding bulk You can easily use spurs with the FUTI. Easy to put on and off, and easy to clean. Sizes run small (seem to correspond to regular shoe sizes) so order one size up if you intend to use them for your boots.

I worry about getting my very expensive custom boots ruined, so my trainer suggested these. I haven't actually worn them yet, but will be taking them to a show next week. They fit perfectly and have a nice tread on the bottom that should be easy to ride with when warming up. They are not bulky. I feel better knowing I can protect my polishing job!

Keep Your Boots Clean!

September 28, 2006
ByHolsteinerMare
fromMA
I don't know how I survived before I discovered Futis! I have always used traditional boot rubbers. My feet would sweat in the summer and freeze in the winter. My back also hurt after wearing boot rubbers all day...don't know why that happened but it did! I found Futis and will never go back. Futis keep my boots clean and unbelievably dry. I have even worn them over Ariat Terrains (not the waterproof ones) for days while grooming at horse shows in the pouring down rain, and my feet never got wet. They don't make my feet hot in the summer but they keep them nice and warm in the winter. They have a shoe like tread on the bottom so they are much easier to walk in than traditional boot rubbers, and they don't make my back hurt. Give them a try. You won't believe what you have been missing.
