 About the Easyboot Bare
Patents Pending
Mimicking the Natural Hoof:
The ÒBareÓ has been a huge success in 2006. Although it is a little harder to apply than the standard Easyboot Epic, the Bare provides a simple, close-fitting boot that constantly adjusts to the hoof. The boot is designed to stretch and flex, mimicking the movements of the naturally bare hoof. Check out the 2007 model with the lower profile comfort strap, thicker bungee and improved rivets.
Rising to the challenge, the Bare was used in 2006 by two horse and rider teams to successfully complete the 400KM Shazada endurance event in Australia. In addition, it has successfully completed several 100mile and 250mile endurance events in extreme conditions on barefoot horses. Not only did the Bare boots stay in place, they did not rub, twist or turn. The results are even more impressive considering many of the test miles were completed in deep, boot-sucking mud and snow.

We believe the Easyboot Bare is an exceptional hoof boot for the following reasons:
- These hoof boots have a simple, form-fitting design with few moving parts.
- The boot stretches and flexes to mimic the natural bare foot.
- After the bungee is adjusted, daily adjustments and tinkering are not necessary.
- All parts are replaceable by the consumer.
- The sole of these protective horse boots is patterned after the barefoot horse. It flexes and gives very much like the bare hoof.

Easyboot Bare Sizing
All Easyboot sizing has changed! You MUST re-measure your horse's feet and compare to the size chart below to insure a proper fit!
How to get the correct size boot for your horse:
- Measure the width of the hoof across the bottom at the widest point.
- Measure the length of the hoof from the toe to the buttress line of the heel.The buttress line is the farthest weight bearing point of the heel.
- Compare your measurement with the proper size chart below.
- Ideally, the width and length measurement will fit into the same Easyboot Epic size. If the width and length measurements indicate different Easyboot Epic sizes, select the larger Easyboot Epic size. If the width and length measurements are different by more than one size, EasyCare hoof boots are not recommended.

Easyboot Bare Fitting
Adjusting the Easyboot Bare bungee system: The bungee system is designed to be adjusted before the boot is applied to the hoof. You want the bungee in the tightest position that will still allow you to apply the boot. Start with the bungee in the center position (the boots come standard in this configuration). It may be necessary for you to loosen the bungee for the first one or two uses. After applying the Easyboot Bare for the first time, try to slide the flat edge of a hoof pick between the hoof and the front of the boot. If you can slide the edge of the hoof pick between the hoof and the front of the boot, remove boot and adjust bungee on one or both sides of the boot to the next notch. Continue process until you can no longer slide the flat end of the hoof pick between the hoof and the front of the boot.
 
Adjusting Bungee: Remove side screw. Slide metal plate into the desired hole position. Tighten screw.
Putting on the Easyboot Bare: Loop the 3/4" nylon webbing pull-strap around the inside back (heel) strap. Fold the gaiter back and hold it and the pull-strap out of the way while fitting the boot over the toe. Pick up the horseÕs leg and support it between your knees (as if you were picking the hoof) so that you can use two hands when applying the boot. Place the boot over the horseÕs toe and using a slight back and forth twisting motion, slide the boot on the rest of the way. You can also put the foot down on the ground and allow the horse to put weight into it. DonÕt use the gaiter to pull the boot on.
  
Using a rubber mallet: If you are unable to get the boot to stretch enough to slide it on, a couple taps with a rubber mallet at the toe area will usually do the trick.
A properly applied boot: The inside back strap is designed to fit snugly, low around the quarters, below the hairline, and below the heel bulbs. You can pull it into position with the included nylon pull-strap, then slide the pull-strap out once the back strap is in proper position. If the horse has a very low heel, make sure the back strap is not pulled out of its position, or in any way allowed to abrade a low heel. Horses with low heels may require the back strap to be cut down a notch or two to avoid chafing near the heel bulbs. Do not use the boot if any portion of the back strap is above the hairline or touching sensitive skin. You will need to slide your finger in the back of the boot to make sure the back strap is not touching sensitive skin.
 
Fastening the Easyboot Bare Gaiter: Fasten the Gaiter next. Pull the top of the Gaiter tight around the pastern. Fasten the hook and loop straps.
 
Removing the Easyboot Bare: The easiest way to remove a properly fitted Easyboot Bare is to use a flat-head screwdriver. Unfasten the Gaiter straps. Next, place the screwdriver inside the boot, between the boot and the hoof at the quarters. Wedge the screwdriver under the hoof to pry the boot off. You may have to work both sides of the boot for easier removal.
Adjusting the back strap: The width and length of the hoof determines the correct size Easyboot Bare, but the length of the back strap can also be a factor. If the back strap in a properly sized boot is too long for your horseÕs hoof conformation, it can be replaced with a smaller strapÑjust remove the back strap and side clips with a screwdriver, and replace with the new back strap available from EasyCare.

Buyer pays shipping (in US) based on weight. International orders can be shipped with FedEx or USPS, but MUST be insured. You can combine shipping with other items to lower your expenses, but ask, since we made need to adjust the shipping amount if the calculator doesn't work correctly! These come in a rather large box, so if you will agree, we can throw out the box and fit more in one box for less weight when combining items. This is particularly important when shipping internationally!!!
