We rode through knee-deep crusty snow, angle deep shoe-sucking mud, crossed a raging spring creek that was knee deep (twice), cantered across a moist field, trotted down a gravel road, traversed a trail strewn with bowling ball sized rocks, and ascended a super steep bank on a trail made by a moose. ![]() I have only used these boots on three long rides now, but I can already tell they are worth every cent, and I have not lost a single boot thanks to the gator! I have been very hard on these boots, and they stayed put, not even twisting. Once on, my horse was completely comfortable over gravel which she previously tried to avoid, and if made to walk on, limped across it. So, basically, I found them easy to put on, a little bit of playing around with a hoof pick to move the cables to the right position for tightening (a hoof pick is an essential tool for applying and removing easyboots!). Likes: I did not find the easy boot as hard to apply as some people had made it out to be (although, I think my horses feet are on the small side of the size shoe they fit in, so might be easier to put on). I also already had one easyboot as an emergency shoe, but it did not have the gator and I frequently found myself backtracking to find it when it was pulled off. I had read reviews about easyboots, and they sounded the best. I didn't want to have to shoe my horse this year, but she is tender on gravel, so I needed some protection for her. Purchase: I purchased a pair of easyboot epics from the local farm supply store for $120. ![]() Model: Easy Boot Epic (View all Easy Boot Epic reviews) Manufacturer: Easåare (View all products by Easycare, Inc)
