How it works -

• The price charged is a DEPOSIT for 3 X BOOT SHELLS from the Easyboot Glove Fit Kit
• Your measurements will determine which size fit kit you need. For example, if your horse’s hoof measurements call for a size 1.5 regular, order a 1 regular, 1.5 regular and size 2 regular Glove shell. 
• When the boots are returned within 14 days of receipt (clean and dry with no items missing, dirty or broken). You will be refunded £30 (the price charged £45 less £15 admin fee). Please note an additional £5 will be deducted for every late week thereafter.
• Please note you will be responsible for returning them to us at your cost, and we are not able to refund you until the kit is received by us so we do recommend a recorded method of postage. Easycare fit kits that are returned to us with parts missing, broken or dirty will be refunded less the cost to put them right again.
• Postage to send the Glove Hoof Boot shells is non refundable. 

As the glove and glue-on easyboots do not need any hardware or fastening systems, achieving a good fit is more important than ever. As proper fit is so vital, Easycare decided it would be best to offer these boots in half sizes to ensure a perfect fit for each individual hoof. Each shell has only four millimetres of width difference between the next shell size up or down. This tight gap between sizes helps ensure a snug fit, but it also means that there is little room for error in measuring and determining the proper size of boot. The Easycare Fit Kit allows consumers to fit their horse's feet in the Glue-On and/or Glove shell before ordering, to ensure the best fit possible without the hassle and wasted time of buying and returning multiple boots. Pre-fitting in the shell will ensure a perfect fit in both the Easyboot Glove or Easyboot Glue-On hoof boot lines and is especially helpful if your horse is between sizes or has one foot a slightly different size to the other. The shell used in both the Easyboot Glove and Easyboot Glue-On products is flexible and has a great deal of stretch. Although taking hoof measurements is a great starting point for fitting any hoof boot, the Fit Kit will allow you to see for certain if a the easyboot glove or glue-on will fit your horse's feet well, and exactly which size fits best.

Easyboot Glove and Glue-On Hoof Boots are available in the following sizes. Please see the Glove and Glue-On Hoof Boot size chart below for both the Glove Regular and Wide sizes:

The EasyCare Fit Kit is for the Easyboot Glove and Easyboot Glue-On only. Sizing on both of these boots is different than other boots in the EasyCare line. The important point to remember is that the Glove and Glue-On have totally different sizing from any of our other boots. 

1. First, measure your horse’s feet:  HOW TO MEASURE YOUR HORSE FOR HOOF BOOTS
2. Compare your measurement with the Easyboot Glove/Easyboot Glue-On size chart above. Please note all Easyboot Glove and Easyboot Glue-On size charts are in millimetres only.
3. Your measurements will determine which size fit kit you need. For example, if your horse’s hoof measurements call for a size 1.5 regular, order a 1 regular, 1.5 regular and size 2 regular Glove shell. 
4. When the boots arrive, try them on the horse’s feet to determine the perfect boot size.

EasyCare Fit Kit Tips

What should you look for in a good fit?

1. The perfect boot size can be pushed on the hoof, but It should take a bit of effort. You should feel the shell flex as it goes over the hoof.
2. The boot will be snug around the hoof wall and no gaps will appear. All portions of the shell will be below the hairline.
3. The V at the front of the shell should expand. It should be very difficult to fit a hoof pick between the shell and the hoof.
4. The boot should fit snug and will be difficult to pull off the hoof. A good fit will give you the impression that the shell will stay on the foot without glue or without a gaiter. It should fit like a “Glove”.
5. The hairline at the heel of the horse should be no more than 1/2 an inch above the shell. Keep in mind that if the shell fits over or close to the rear hairline, you can always trim your boots down. (Please do not trim the Fit Kit boots!)

What should you look for in a poor fit?

1. Gaps (small or large) can be seen between the upper boot portion and the hoof.
2. The V in the front of the shell does not expand much. Viewing the photo below the V on the left boot has failed to expand (poor fit). The V on the right has expanded and is a good fit.
3. A long heel (a heel that measures more than 1/2 an inch above the shell at the rear hairline). A horse with long heels may have success with the Easyboot Glue-On shell but will not have success with the Easyboot Glove. 
4. The hoof is bulging at the side of the shell.

What can you do to turn a bad fit into a good fit?

1. Have your horse trimmed by a farrier or hoof care professional. Make sure they are conscious about barefoot trimming methods, toe length and heel length.
2. Chances are good that after trimming you will have success with the Fit Kit.
3. Some feet are not the right shape and don’t have the correct angles for the Easyboot Glove and Easyboot Glue-On.
