You can trade in any hoof boot for 1/2 price on any of our other style of boots, Epics, Bares, Old Macs, Grips and Boas. Beginning June 1, you can send in any style of boots (limit 2 per customer), they must be riding boots, in exchange for a different style of boots. The program was such a great success that we have decided to bring it back in. Yes, it's back! Until further notice we will be re-instating the hoof boot exchange program at Eas圜are as originally done for the month of March. If you do need to keep the heelstrap in to keep the boot fitting well on your horse and are concerned about the strap causing rubbing that is an easy fix - simply apply three layers of duct tape over the strap to smooth things out. This is probably not going to be a concern for a casual trail rider but if your horses spend a lot of hours and miles in the boots like mine do it never hurts to be extra careful! This helps the boots to slide on and off easier and also eliminates the chance of rubs. If you do cut the heelstrap out or replace with tapers, it's still useful to apply duct tape to each side of the remaining taper part.

Starting in 2007 all Epics and Bares will come with the new lower profile comfort strap. You need to either use tapers, or leave in the metal gripper teeth or side plate in on each side of the boot to keep it stabilized. My horses have hooves that fill up the boots very well so they are all fine to go 'strapless'.

This applies to any of the Eas圜are boots that have a gaiter - Epic, Bare or Grip.

The answer depends on how the boot fits your horses hoof. You can also view our educational videos on how to apply or remove your boot. If you no longer have your brochure that comes with the boot, you can download one from our website. You can combine "A" and "C" to get a wrap in the middle of the standard and tightest setting. Do NOT wrap the cable around the buckle clamp. Using the cable in this way will result in frayed or broken wires. The cable in this picture is in a loop formation around the top of the buckle. This is normally where your cable should be when removing or applying the boot. When tight and closed correctly, you should not be able to open the buckle without the use of a tool such as a screwdriver or hoof pick.Ĭlick on the picture to see a bigger view of some of the cable adjustments you can do to assure a proper fit. In the case of the Epic and Grip boots this could result in torn gaiters.Ĭlamp the buckle down either using the palm of your hand or using your foot. If the cable is not tight enough, you can have issues with the boot staying on. Whenever you adjust your cables for the Easyboot, Epic or Grip you need to make sure that the adjustments are very snug.
