Boa boots, or something similar?

[applestroodle]

Looking for some advice on the best barefoot boots, my old lad dosent have shoes on and would like to start hacking him again but we have lots of stoney tracks, any advice on the best alternatives to shoes as i dont really want to put shoes on him, thanks in advance!!

Have a look at the EasyCare website - they make Boas, Old Macs and lots of other types of boot. I have both Boas and OMs and they are both excellent once you get used to putting them on. The key is to get the correct shape and size and the website has some helpful print-outs that you can use to compare to your horses feet.

I have a pair of the marquis boots and they are really good you pump the backs up so that they fit really well.

I've got the Easyboot Gloves, and they're really simple to put on. Fit is very important, though!

I use Old Macs - they are absolutely fantastic and have extended by old boys working life. he is 28 and barefoot as he gets concussion and goes lame if shod.

They are really easy to put on as they open right up and my horse loves them, he has lots of confidence in them now and I wouldn't hack out without them!
