EasyCare is working on a couple new gaiter designs that are testing well. We are currently experimenting with different materials and size configurations for the Easyboot Epic, Easyboot Bare and Easyboot Grip. All three of these hoof boot designs will have an improved gaiter for 2008.
I personally used four of the new gaiters at the XP event a couple weeks ago and have continued testing the same four gaiters at home. The gaiters are working extremely well, have not rubbed any of our three horses and make the boots easier to fit.
The horse (GE Cyclone) I rode the third 50 mile day of the XP event was borrowed from a friend and we had just pulled his shoes 10 days before the event. Not only did the horse take to barefoot in the 10 days, we placed 8th and won best condition. The new gaiters held the boots securely in place without causing any rubs or discomfort.
