Easyboots - why we can't get any to fit!

A very kind person sent me this information when I emailed and asked why we can't get any easyboots to fit:

There is an 'issue' with wider than long hooves I'm afraid! Easycare is a US company and the biggest manufacturer of hoof boots in the world. Unfortunately the wider than long hoof seems to be something that is only really a problem in the UK (roughly 20-25%) mainly due to our TB and draft types.

She goes on to say:

The good news though is that Easycare are working on a wider fit glove (a lot of horses have a round front foot) which should solve the problem for most.

Well - at least we know now!
