Question Fender Covers--Which are best?

Looking for black covers for my black 8" round X 20" long rope through the middle fenders (also known as the Taylormade Big B). There are lots of options out there--fairly large discrepancy in price.

Example:

Taylormade Fleece Fender Boots (#9031)
Taylor Tux Fender Boots (#9055)
Taylor Premium Fender Covers (#9080)
Taylor Traditional Fender Boots (#5043)

What are the differences in these as I think the #5043 are least expensive and are around $20/pair and the Premium #9080 are around $30/each.

Polyform Elites

I've had 6 on 8x20' HTM's for 15 years and two boats...

I take care of them though, and they have spent a low % time against anything other than another boat-
occasional seawall or wooden docks
you just gotta flush 'em out good if they get "contaminated'
trim any snag ASAP

but that's true for any fender cover

I just ordered 4 of the fender covers from this place:

... and am VERY happy with the product! They were inexpensive, of high quality, had free shipping and were delivered in three days.
