Extreme Veteran Posts: 460	Good morning all! I would like your guys' input on this...so the other day when I was at the horse barn, someone asked me why I don't cross my hind leg straps on my blankets. I then learned that there are apparently 3 different ways you can do leg straps? Around each individual leg (which is what I do), cross the straps, or cross and loop around the other strap. Which is the correct way? I only learned about going around the leg on the same side of the blanket. Thanks!

Reaching for the stars.... Posts: 12704	I've done it all three ways. The most successful, as in holding the blanket more or less in place, is around each leg seperately but crossing one through the other. But I don't think there is a right or wrong way. And I do think some horses are heck bent to destroy their blanket no matter how you put it on, and some you could forget to do the leg straps and they'll have no problems!
