I really cannot think of any advantages of those over boots, and can think of many disadvantages.
Would love to hear why?
Sorry not read through all the posts but I just wanted to tell you not to lose all hope. Two years ago I was in the same position as you - ex racer crap feet - lame on three legs, X-rays and MRI showed reverse pedal bone rotation and impar ligament damage. My vet suggested that I needed to think about PTS. I had the shoes removed as a last resort as I was not prepared to give up on a 4 year old. I changed his diet and gradually got him moving by using hoof boots with thick pads and two years on he is sound as a pound and out hunting barefoot barefoot rehab is not costly it's just time consuming but it is well worth the time. For what it's worth I think my vet thought I had lost the plot and it can be hard to go against professional advice. Good luck to you and your horse x
