I haven't tried the equicrown ones, but I love my EquiFlexSleeves! They're a pain to put on, but they really do the job and I prefer them to standing wraps when it's hot out.
My horse stocks up all the time. He seems to be just naturally prone to it and the fact he has to be kept in a fairly small run rather than a pasture doesn't help. He's on on a supplement for his Kidneys now which is supposed to help, but it's only been about a week. So a compression type product is totally something I would be in to and plan on purchasing. Those look neat but for the price I would probably go with the equiflexsleeve first. They're $40 a pair vs nearly $300.

I really do love the EquiFlexSleeves. Maybe I wouldn't so much if my gelding was a pain about having his feet picked up, but I'm a fan! I like that they are very breathable...I worry about heat buildup under regular standing wraps.
