We have been working on an improved version of the gaiter on the Easyboot Epic, Easyboot Bare and Easyboot Grip for several months. After many tweaks and miles of testing the gaiter is now complete and will be shipping on boots starting February 2008.
Although many of the improvements below look simple they significantly improve the performance of the gaiter. We have completed all the provisional patent work to protect the designs and manufacturing techniques.
The new gaiter design has four major improvements.
1. The new gaiter design has no internal stitching. All stitching on the inside of the gaiter has been removed making a softer and less abrasive surface for the horse.
2. All edges on the gaiter are now rolled. Top, bottom and sides.
3. The leather on the back of the gaiter has been replaced with a two way elastic. This two way elastic stretches and gives to accommodate different heel builds.
4. The elastic at the back of the gaiter also makes each boot much
easier to apply. The gaiter can now be folded back over the boot out
of the way during application.
will the new gaitors only be available on new boots or will they be available on their own to replace worn gaitors on existing boots and if so from when
thanks for any help
