This is very important to success with boots. I've had Daatje in Epics, Boas, Old Mac G2's and Cavallo Simples and NOTHING has worked thus far. <br /><br />Epics - longer than they are wide. In order to fit her 6" x 6" hoof, they are too long and will come off at a gallop.<br /><br />Boas - clunky, yuck.<br /><br />Old Mac G2's - clunky times 2. Double Yuck.<br /><br />Cavallo Simples - less clunky but made her heels sore. Maybe good for short rides, but did not work for long foxhunts.<br /><br />I have yet to try the Renegades. Heard great things, they come in her size (yes!) but are $$$. :( I'd still love to have a pair of boots to use on the rocky hunts so maybe this year I'll cave and buy a pair.<br /><br />Anyway, if the length x width work with her hooves, the Epics are a good basic boot.Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07966293876908587817noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7503414269772613959.post-25188176789781681632012-04-02T10:02:09.064-04:002012-04-02T10:02:09.064-04:00I used Cavallo simple boots on my OTTB last year w...I used Cavallo simple boots on my OTTB last year when we rode on gravel and hard ground. It's safe to say we both loved them. They were easy to put on and the heavy duty velcro kept them from moving or coming loose.Northof Sevenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10190877293075747481noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7503414269772613959.post-71845906442472519442012-04-02T08:52:57.507-04:002012-04-02T08:52:57.507-04:00Easy boot trails - easy to put on, you can use com...Easy boot trails - easy to put on, you can use comfort pads in them.

She's very willing to share info. I'd guess that if they protect her Dixie on rocky 50 mile rides, they must be pretty darn good.<br />http://fundersgoodidea.blogspot.com/Terryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13944121836337072178noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7503414269772613959.post-60414052117528262682012-04-01T13:41:03.567-04:002012-04-01T13:41:03.567-04:00She goes really nicely in that hackamore :) Been r...She goes really nicely in that hackamore :) Been riding Yankee in his everytime we hack out, so nice.Checkmark115https://www.blogger.com/profile/08875106264738444238noreply@blogger.com
