 I saw these in a magazine I was reading recently and was wondering if anyone had tried them or what peoples general thoughts on them were.  Thank you

I was wondering the same thing. Not so interested in running in them as my horses are barefoot, but would totally use them if they would stand up to the rigors of barrel racing at the upper divisions as well as add some grip for those rocky mountain trails that we go up and down, too. Maybe I will call them and ask what kinds of "performance" testing they did with these shoes.

I think there's always a time and a place for glue on shoes.  But long term glue use can have negative affects on the hoof wall. So it's not ideal unless its necessary

i just became a dealer for the easy boot company.  but did so for the boots (hauling/stalling stuff).  But I can get info on them if you'd like.  but you'll need to send me some info: 
why are you considering them?  do you have a reason not to use nails such as a hoof wall broke out not allowing nailing?

Are you thinking of using them for barrel racing or just riding?  I ask because I would want to have them send me info on the traction (too much might lead to joint soreness).

for fronts or back?  or all 4?

does you horse have a lameness issue?

I partly agree with this. But I will say that the negative effects may be far less significant than the need for a hoof to heal- which can take a full year. The ones that glue to the sole are far less an issue than the Sigafoos but to me the Sigafoos are a better fit. They literally stayed on almost 3 months and help my horse greatly. I prefer Sigafoo glue ons and have run in them. Not familiar with this brand. I have used the Epona and another that looked like tenacles. Tiany Schuster uses a glue on but I cant think what it is called-
