Boa Hoof Boots


Boa horse boots are one of the most popular hoof boots in the Easycare range, and given good care they can last for years! This versatile hoof boot is very easy to fit and remove, and is ideal for the casual rider. To keep your boots in tip top condition, make sure that the are always kept as clean as possible, and check the lace before and after each ride. Run the lace up and down and wipe away any excess dirt or mud in that area of the boot. If the lace appears a little stiff, lubricate with a little water to loosen it up. After riding in loose dirt or sand, ideally use a small air hose to clean them thoroughly- this will ensure no small particles are lodges in the mechanism. One last tip- always make sure the boa dial protection cap is installed and tightened properly, it is inconvenient to loose this protective cover and it is not recommended to use the boots without it as it protects the mechanism. There are many spare parts available for the lacing system (and spare dial covers!) for Easycare stockists in the UK, for your nearest stockist visit our website Trelawne Equine - home of the Easycare range of hoof boots and the Riders Rasp in the UK

The Easyboot Power Strap

There is a very useful accessory for the Easyboot Glove called the Easyboot Power Strap . This nifty little strap is the ideal solution if the angle or shape of your horses hoof means you have a gap at the top of your Easyboot gloves. The power strap helps to keep the upper portion of the glove or glue on shell tighter around the hoof. The tighter fit helps to keep dirt and debris out of the hoof boot. The Easyboot power strap also helps to improve fit on feet with flare or imbalances, and also helps to keep the boot centred on any hoof during use in extyreme conditions such as rocks, mud, water or snow.
