Well, I have two different pairs...the ones that have a big upper velcro strap that rub and are basically worthless, and the softer, more formfitting, but too long, Performer's 1st choice ones (I went out and looked at them last night). The performer's ones have the hole on the suspensory wrap part that goes behind the fetlock.
I just went back and re-read what I said and realized it could have been misconstrued--I use "interfering" to mean brushing with the other front foot if in the front, and the other hind if in the back. Overreaching or clipping is if the horse overstrides with the hind and clips their front hoof or leg(usually on the same side). Any horse, especially minis that are less than perfect leg conformation or that are making tight corners, can interfere. But it depends on the conformation as to how likely they are to overreach (short backed, with lots of overstep in the hind).
Anyway, good discussion...and Jamie, let us know if you end up being able to get them to make some!!
