Mine are always rusty, but I have gone to nylon straps because they appear to be easier on the calf. I don't see the indention on the calf's legs after a pull with the straps like I do with the chains. Even doing a double loop with the chain above and below the hock will give them marks so I have pretty much quit using them.
