The Boa Horse Boot™ has been developed, tested and manufactured to
improve upon the equine hoof boot concept. EasyCare’s successful history
in manufacturing and using hoof boots has given us the experience and
knowledge needed to develop the most complete equine hoof boot on
the market. The Boa Horse Boot™ is the result.
The Boa Horse Boot™ has been developed with three main
objectives:
Unlimited Uses. The Boa Horse Boot™ provides excellent
hoof protection for both occasional and everyday riding for
the barefoot horse, but can also be used in the correction and
treatment of founder, navicular disease, punctures, abscesses,
bruises, contracted heels and other impactcaused injuries. It
also provides protection during trailering, breeding and a quick
fix for the occasional lost shoe.
Ultimate Protection & Retention. The Boa Horse Boot™
has been designed to protect and remain on the hoof during
aggressive riding conditions. The Boa Horse Boot™ provides
protection to the frog, sole, hoof wall, hairline and bulb area.
Quick and Easy Application. Many of the current hoof
boots require tools and strength during application and removal.
The Boa Lacing System™ is used on the Boa Horse Boot™ as
the primary closure system. The Boa Lacing System™ allows
the Boa Horse Boot™ to open large enough to accommodate
the wide base of a hoof, allowing for quick application without
strength or force. After the hoof is placed in the Boa Horse
Boot™, the Boa Lacing System™ quickly tightens with a turn
of the dial. Removing the Boa Horse Boot™ is simple: pull the
dial, the lace tension releases and the Boa Horse Boot™ is
easily slipped off the hoof.
The Boa Horse Boot™ is the first horse boot to use materials and
technology previously found only in modern athletic shoes and
snowboard boots. Modern materials and manufacturing techniques,
combined with the unique Boa Lacing System™, make the Boa
Horse Boot™ the most advanced horse boot ever.
The outside tread pattern of the Boa Horse Boot™ has been
designed for traction, yet allows the hoof and lower leg to move after
contact with the ground surface. There is a fine line between traction
and aggressive traction. Boots or shoes with aggressive traction
don’t allow movement of the hoof and lower leg, causing unneeded
lower limb stress and injuries. The Boa Horse Boot™ has been
designed to provide traction similar to the natural barefoot hoof.
Boa Horse Boots™ provide traction without injuries.
The Boa Lacing System™ makes Boa Horse Boots™ easy to put
on and take off, and micro adjustments inherent to the closure allow
the boot to fit snugly to almost any hoof. Boa Horse Boots™ fit snugly
around the hoof and above the hairline without joint interference during
motion.
Although Boa Horse Boots™ have many veterinary and medical uses,
they should not be used to hold medications or invasive substances.
Many of the medicines used to treat hoof ailments will react adversely
with Boa Horse Boot™ leathers and the urethane sole.
