We are making some progress on all three new EasyCare hoof boots. The next round of samples and test results will determine the exact date each boot will be ready for release.
The Easyboot Edge has been testing very well and had an impressive debut at the Death Valley Encounter 200 mile endurance event. Since the DVE test weekend we are making a couple small refinements and one major modification that I believe will be found in all hoof boots in the future. We will keep you posted on the progress here and at the Team Easyboot blog. The Edge is pictured below with the adjustment key.
The EasyCare Medical/Therapy boot continues to move forward. We are currently working on selecting a bottom compound that is durable, light weight and and has the correct shock absorbing qualities. This boot will end up being a cost effective treatment boot that will offer immediate comfort for many horses.
In addition to the Easyboot Edge and the Medical/Therapy Boot, we have been working on another new riding boot since June 2007. This new boot has some design features of the Dallmer Clog, Renegade Hoof Boot and Easyboot Edge. I'm currently riding in these boots and they are testing very well. Not sure how and when we will name this design but I have a couple ideas. Should be able to show better photos after we submit another round of patent work.
The new boot currently has the Easyboot Bare tread pattern for testing purposes. Our molds are set up so the tread plate can be changed independently of the mold upper.
