I hadn't heard of them either, but had someone recommend them for a chronic sore footed horse I have. They look really great, I think we are going to try them but thought I'd see if anyone here had ever used them.

Never heard of them. But I did just hear about Ethos Etabs glue on shoes. I watched a few of their videos and they seem interesting. The glue stays on the toe not on the heel. I think they are made for horses with contracted heels.

See if you can find someone that knows how to put on Epona shoes. They are made of a rubber that has the same density as the horse's foot, so it mimics the foot. The farrier I knew that put them on glued them on with epoxy and then also put 2 nails on each side(don't have to) and he rolled the toe of the shoe before he applied it to help breakover. They worked miracles on my one foot sore horse.

Thank you!
I have not used the Epona in at least 7 years but unless they have streamlined their show I thought it was clunky for riding. I think it is great for theraputic though.
