The Easyboot Trail hoof boot is the very latest hoof boot for barefoot horses from the Easycare stable. The Easyboot trail is such a simple hoof boot, and is supplied in singles to allow you to fit each hoof correctly or replace a worn or damaged boot. This superb value hoof boot has been designed to allow for up to 6 weeks growth for most horses and is recommended for medium distance riding- upto 25 miles per week (usually an average of 1 - 1 1/2 hours a day) so ideal for most leisure riders. The Easyboot trail is a simple hoof boot to use, no force required just a quick and very easy double velcro closure at the rear- nothing else to worry about! This revolutionary hoof boot will open right up for fitting so works well on impatient horses or those that find it hard to stand on three legs for long periods. The Easyboot trail hoof boot can be used with a variety of pads (Old Mac Pads fit the trail hoof boot) inside, making it an incredibly valuable tool for transitioning barefoot horses too. The traction is superb and the design is such that you can ride through mud, water, sand, rocks and anything else you can find without fear of losing a (correctly fitting) boot with a free stride and good breakover. The easyboot trail hoof boot fits neatly at the top with a soft collar which helps to prevent debris from entering the boot and has a toe strike plate to give excellent wear resistance. This trail boot is also ideal for shod horses to replace a lost shoe, and can be used over shoes for extra protection (use over shoes will however invalidate the warranty).
