Location: Randolph, Utah | Is one better than the other? The price isn't a ton different between them.
Is it better to buy a full set, all 4 feet, or is it ok to only use them on the front feet? |

Location: MD | I bought 1 pair of clouds for a horse that foundered. I love them! They're way lighter than soft rides and held up great. |

They look like they come up higher on the ankle then soft rides. Did you notice any rubbing. |

Location: North MS | I purchased a set of clouds to keep my mares feet clean after having hoof canker cauterized. She wore them for two weeks solid, only removed for cleaning and re-medicating. I did have some moisture issues, but it was hot out. No rubs on the legs, just some coronary band irritation. Of course the common horse wouldn't be wearing them as much as she did. They were awesome for the situation though. I do not regret purchasing them or choosing to buy them over soft rides. I figure easyboot has been in the hoof boot business longer than soft ride. |

Location: Georgia | I had soft rides and loved them when I could finally figure out the right size for the horse. I would measure according to their webpage and sometimes that did not work out. I am interested to try the Easyboot version |

No the material is really soft it didn't rub him at all. He's a grey and will get a raw spot from a bell boot being too loose so I don't think it would rub unless it was really a poor fit. |

I am interested to try the Easyboot version I love the soft rides too, but same as you it took me 3 trys befor I got it right, the owners of soft rides were really great, they worked with me untill I got the right size. I got them for my boy that founder this past spring and it sure did make a difference for him..
