This is an excellent boot for long distance riding! The Easyboot Gaiter comes standard on the Easyboot Epic or can be purchased as an accessory for 2005 or later Easyboots. It also helps keep the boot on during extreme conditions such as mud, snow, and water crossings. The attached Easyboot Gaiter provides extra protection to the hoof as well as keeps excess dirt and debris from getting into the boot. I have had trouble with the buckle breaking in very rocky terrain, but easyboot has a fabulous warranty and has replaced the buckles and cables when I have had problems.The Easyboot Epic is the ideal boot for the barefoot horse, aggressive conditions, or for a horse who is difficult to keep booted. They are a bit more forgiving than easyboot gloves, as you can adjust the tightness of the cable. My Paint horse's feet have improved significantly now that he can stay barefoot except when I ride him.Ĭomments: These are my 'emergency spare tires' when I do endurance rides. I use them for conditioning and competing. I will sadly be returning them.įrom: Alexandra - Sanoma County, California, USAĬomments: These boots are easy for me to put on my horses (have arthritis in my hands) and hard to take off (a good thing because they don't come off when I'm riding my horses, even in very rough rocky country or sucky mud.) They are lasting a long time, too.

The screws on the sides dig into his hoof, and the gaiters are at the wrong angle so they can't be velcroed snugly. Comments: I bought these boots to replace an older set of Easycare Epics and the new version does not fit my horse as well as my older boots.
