So, all is going brilliantly since my boy has been barefoot and riding out in hoof boots. Many milestones have been reached and his hooves are looking brilliant, but now a problem has arisen - we have no grip in the mud! Went on a bit of a hair-raising hack today and he slipped so many times. Deep mud is fine, but flat, smooth mud is a nightmare. Hooves just cut into it but my cavallo boots are just sliding all over it.

Anyone else had this problem and found a solution? Really don't want to go back into shoes as he's doing so, so well, but don't really want to have to restrict our adventures through the winter either :confused:
 
Unfortunately can't go without them at the moment as where I ride it's quite flinty in places and his hooves aren't ready for that yet. I'll have a look at the boots you mentioned though Headpiece. Thanks.
 
Thanks LucyPriory. I like the look of the Easyboot Egde and have also just seen that the Easyboot Gloves can have studs fitted for slippery conditions - getting quite excited!
 
Yeah, it's a shame Silver Zaanif as my cavallos are perfect in every other way. I'm going to have a look at some of these Easyboots though. Sounds like they could be the answer :)
 
I have been trying to get hold of some easyboots and it seems there is a problem with their suppliers and none will be available untill feb time:(

Which Easyboots are you after Allover? If it's the Gloves, there are quite a lot advertised on eBay at the moment in various sizes.
 
I got it wrong it was the Epics i was after (:o) in a size 4, had a look on ebay and there are none in that size. Will keep looking on there though, thanks:)
