Tips for Better Fit
If all horses were the same it would be so simple....but they are not, so we learn from each other and help each other find solutions to fitting boots on harder to fit horses.
Vet wrap or duct tape will keep the metal teeth in an Easyboot from gripping onto the hoof wall and can actually hold the boot on better.
The use of pads and/or cutting the top edge of an Easyboot, Epic, or Bare down can keep a boot from rubbing on the coronet band of low heeled horses.
Putting a smaller backstrap into an Easyboot, Epic, or Bare can shorten the length of the boot. (do not shorten more than one size though)
Changing a regular Backstrap (with teeth) out for a Comfort Strap (no teeth) can add width to an Epic. (just make sure the length is the right fit).
