<< Sue: You meantioned Velcro straps-do they come with the boots, or did you make them? Someone I spoke to who uses the boots a lot said she uses "keepers" just in case a boot would come off, so as not to lose it. I suppose I could call State Line and ask. >> Yes, I made my straps. I have never seen the straps advertised in the catalogs although I know E-Z Boot sells some. One time I was riding through quite fast flowing water and a boot came off, because of the straps the boot was not lost. There are some horses that would come unglued with a boot hanging around their ankle but I was riding a Fjord and once out of the water replaced the boot and rode on. As I said in my earlier posting I have had no problem with my E-Z Boots I don't use them all the time, for much of the year my mare is shod, but they do allow me to give her feet a break from shoes and still allow me to ride or drive her on our rock terrain without bruising her very flat feet.
