Hi
Currently looking at getting hoof boots and have heard lots of positive things about the Easyboot ones, but not sure whether to look at the Glove with gaiter or Epic.
Does anyone use either one and if so, did you consider both, and why did you choose the one you went for?
They would be for hacking and for pleasure up to Novice endurance rides.
Any thoughts welcome.
B

I went the the process of carefully looking and all of them, it took some time to find one with all my preferred 'features'; only to find, when I finally called to buy, that the one I had chosen would not fit properly, I forget exactly but I think it was because the length was more than the width and the ones I wanted were very close in length and width, so I would do the measuring first, then see what fits, then choose  And if they come out the same size as mine, I have a pair for sale: worn 3 times, winged across the yard once which is a shame, they are great boots. |

Sorry I can't comment on the easiboot, but I recently bought the Cavallo boots for my pony after a barefoot trimmer hacked his feet badly  ... They come in pairs not individually like most hoof boots and I had to get front and rear boots. I have only hacked out on pony in them and nothing major but I was really happy with them. I just preferred the neatness of the boots and there seemed less places to rub on the foot/leg area.
I know people say that they prefer to buy boots generally in singles not pairs as if one gets lost you only have to buy one. I hope others will comment for you though as I know it's an expensive decision if you get it wrong. |

Likewise on the not having experience of the easy boots. I use Mac2 boots on my mare who wont keep shoes on and I am very pleased.
I would also like to know about the boots for sale Pop, message me with the size after checking with Becky. I am trying to make sure I have boots to fit all of mine eventually. |
