![]() ![]() OP: A random question for you- you never worried about the metal buckle on an Epic hurting the horse if they kick/graze themselves? I always wondered that when I saw them on horses. When using the size chart, we recommend choosing the size where the hoof measurements fall towards the lower end of the width and length ranges so there is room for hoof growth through the trim cycle. We could power strap them, but haven't needed to so far). (I just realized the Epics you currently use are like the Gloves we use, we just don't have buckles. He doesn't think the Trail types breathe as well. I also like that the gaiter gives a bit more stick poking protection to the hoof as well.Īnd my farrier prefers the neoprene gaiter upper opposed to all that double layer of canvas type material on the hoof, heat generation wise. ![]() We only really ever lose a boot if they flat tire themselves, which happens very rarely- in the sense that who know how many flat tires they give themselves, but we have only had maybe 3 slipped boots because of it. We have used them on 3 horses for 3 years and nearly everywhere we ride has some element of heavy brush and downed trees to navigate. Yes, if the gaiter gets knocked/pulled open by heavy brush, then you *might* slip/twist the boot. No real issues with twisting since they have gaiters. The Easyboot Trail is the easiest hoof boot in the world to apply and remove - and one of the most affordable. ![]()
