So far this wet boot has been very durable for a horse that doesn't stand still. Harnesses must be installed before putting them on your horse. I found the top strap very difficult to tighten. The middle and bottom straps are not fixed and are sort of turned inside out. You need to organize and prepare the straps before putting the boot on. However, they were too loose for the restless horse, and the boot slipped and almost fell off. I gave up and attached the boot with veterinary tape, which worked better. I like the overlay at the bottom of the boot.
