One of mine is tearing the Velcro fastener away from the easy boot gaitor.
This is a part that can be replaced. In this case, I could probably sew it
on with a needle and thread. The problem is that the sewing was not tied
off at the end properly.
Many parts

Hi all Easyboot users,
How long do the easy boots last? I asked my shoer about them and he said
they are really expensive if you ride in them regularly--that is, they wear
out quickly and need replacing. I understand that how they wear would dep

him. (The stallion was Anne Appleby's Misha). We would enjoy a visit from

the "teeth" on the inside, as I didn't notice damage on the hoof wall and I
figure they help grip. The first time I tried the boots in winter conditions

Hi Listers, I never thought about using easy boots for
winter riding. Do you smash down those metal
gripping ridges on the inside so you can take the
boots on and off? Except for eliminating the snowball

Denise: My Fjord is only "ouchy" on gravel, etc., but I would like to use
Easy Boots for the occasional times when I would trailer him out to a park
that has rocky areas. I also do alot of riding on asphalt and I thought
perhaps the boots wo
y well over shoes,
in addtion to serving in place of shoes.
I hope this helps.

dear joni,
best bet for fitting easy boots is to trace the hoof outline on a piece of
paper and send it in to the company. that usually works. why do you want
to use easy boots? is your horse "ouchy?" most

I just "took the plunge" and purchased "Easy Boots" for my gelding. The
problem is that there is alot of room at the heel. I can place my fingers
into the back-I would say there's at least 2 inches of space behind the heel

When I do go out on trails, depending on the footing, I sometimes
