It sounds like a New Market boot, which is the summer version of a field boot. The cloth is to help cool your leg.
Reply:The shaft of the boot is supposed to be thin so you can feel the horse, and vice versa. The shank is rigid to give support. If they have laces and are 6" high, they are probably paddock boots.
