Veteran Posts: 178 Location: IL	Hello! Just wondering which you prefer for hauling your ponies and why? Or is there another "boot" you prefer? Looking for the most bang for my buck :) Thanks in advance!

But my one gelding can't handle the frog pressure so to use them on him I need to carve out the raised frog part. Softrides are MUCH heavier. I think the Easyboot Trails are easier to put on/off because you don't have to worry about aligning the frog on the raised frog thingy. The The Easyboot Trails are much lighter and can be rode in or turned out in. Easyboot Trails are more economical. I have a horse that paws in the trailer and ruined a pair of Softrides. Hope that helps.
