Horses Dacor - Select Correct Horse Hoof Boot

Other Other important considerations when selecting a hoof boot:

1. If you want to ride long distances over difficult terrain, the Easyboot Epic is the best choice.
2. Potential Rubbing with the Boa Horse Boot and Old Mac's:
1. The Old Mac's Hoof Boot works best when fitted with a Pastern Wrap. The Pastern Wrap minimizes the chances of rubbing in all conditions.
2. The Boa Horse Boot works best when fitted with a Boa Gaiter. The Boa Gaiter minimizes the chances of rubbing in all conditions.
3. The Boa Horse Boot and the Old Mac's have similar recommended uses. Quick tips when deciding between the Boa Horse Boot and Old Mac's:
1. The Boa Horse Boot and Old Mac's Hoof Boots are both quick and easy to fit.
2. If you are having a hard time deciding between an Old Mac's and a Boa Horse Boot consider the following:
1. Old Mac's have a more aggressive tread pattern and will provide better traction in mud or wet grass. Although the tread is more aggressive, it wears more quickly than the tread of the Boa.
2. If your horse's feet are short and wide, an Old Mac's is a better choice.
3. Boa Horse Boots are better for horse's feet that are slightly longer than wider.
4. Endurance riding or rides of extended length or time:
1. Although the Boa Horse Boot and Old Mac's Horse boots have been successfully used for endurance-type distances, EasyCare does not recommend either of these boots if used more than 25 miles per week or per ride. Without due diligence in use, the Old Mac's and Boa Horse Boot can cause rubbing above the hairline.

Easyboots are used for correction and treatment of founder, navicular, nail punctures, abscesses, bruises, contracted heels, and other impact caused injuries.

Easyboot 2005

The Easyboot Bare (The Bare) has been under development since early 2005. Although the Easyboot Bare is little harder to apply than the standard Easyboot Epic, the new Bare provides a simple, close fitting boot that constantly adjusts to the hoof. The boot upper and sole is designed to stretch and flex, mimicking the movements of the natural barefoot hoof.

PATENT PENDING The Easyboot Epic is ideal for the barefoot horse, muddy conditions or for a horse who is difficult to keep booted. The attached Gaiter provides extra protection to the hoof as well as keeps excess dirt and debris from getting into the Easyboot. It also helps keep the boot on during extreme conditions such as mud, snow, and water crossings. This is an excellent boot for long distance riding! The Easyboot Gaiter can be purchased as an accessory for the Easyboot, or comes packaged and assembled on the Easyboot Epic.

The Boa Horse Boot® has been designed to protect and remain on the hoof during aggressive riding conditions. Boa hoof boots provide protection to the frog, sole, hoof wall, hairline and bulb area. The Boa Lacing System® allows this horse equine hoof boot to open large enough to accommodate the wide base of a hoof, allowing for quick application without strength or force. After the hoof is placed in the Boa Horse Boot®, the Boa Lacing System® quickly tightens with a turn of the dial. Removing the Boa Horse Boot® is simple: pull the dial, the lace tension releases and the Boa Horse Boot® is easily slipped off the hoof.
