EasyCare Inc. Easyboot Glove Soft Wide Horse Boot

I have used Easycare gloves for the last six months with zero issues. Purchased a new pair when Smart Pak had their Labor Day sale. Put them on and the plastic on the gator cracked. Horse took not one step. Sent them back to Smart Pak and they promptly processed a refund. I want to be super clear - this is an Easycare problem. Not a Smart Pak problem. The quality control on the gators in general seems to have gotten bad. With some research, I have found out that I am not only person with the cracking problem or stitching breaking. So purchase with caution.

OMG, how happy ordering these boots made me (and my horse). The boot is great and SmartPak is great too: Background: I'm transitioning a 4 yo 17 hands friesian stallion from being shod. Long story short, we need boots for the transitioning and I ordered Scootboots. I ordered according to their sizing chart, but he has very small hoofs yet with the usual draft-sized legs, so it was impossible to find a fit. Way too tight around pastern, and too big on the hoof. And it turns out Scootboots still operate out of Australia, so it would take 14days+ to have new sizes shipped each time, even longer to get returns approved, and I've spent equal amounts on returns as for boots, and yet not been able to fit them properly. So I found these, which are very similar to Scootboots, yet with the added benefit that they are softer in the back and around the pastern. They are still somewhat snug around the pastern on him, but I'll reinforce with additional velcro, apart from that fit like a glove! He was very happy with them. AND, shipping said about a week, they arrived overnight!!!! Which is pretty crucial in this scenario as every day that goes by that it's difficult to work him properly and he might not be landing properly on his feet etc is one red day in our calendar. I'm so impressed. So happy. Wow, how difficult things can be with the wrong products and the wrong company, and how easy it can be with the right products and the right company. VERY HAPPY. They are really great boots, like someone said, a little hard to get on, but not a problem I put it on, and ask him to step down, and they slide on. Not hard to take off. Stayed on like a glove, we tried tight turns and lateral movements. Easy to clean and fast to dry.

This is the first boot that has remained in place on my gaited horse at speed! He is 23 years old and “ footy” off grass or arena footing. He loves them and was comfortable riding down the dirt road with scattered small stones yesterday! I love them!

I love the Easyboot Glove Soft by Easy Care Inc! These boots helped keep my horse, Kimchi, significantly more comfortable when he transitioned to being barefoot. At the beginning of his transition, I would use these any time he would work. Now that he has been barefoot for a few years, we only use them during trail rides or on any rough terrain. These boots help keep Kimchi comfortable on even the rockiest of trails! I personally like to keep two sizes on hand, one for after a fresh trim and one for the end of his trim cycle. This is not necessary but I’ve found it makes putting the boots on at the end of his trim cycle much easier. It’s nice to have an extra pair on hand, just in case! These boots stay on great at the walk and trot; however, anything faster than a trot or any muddy terrain would work best with a Power Strap. Additionally, the Easyboot Glove Soft is so easy to clean! I hose them off after a ride and hang them upside down to dry. These boots are perfect for any barefoot trail horses!
