Easy to apply, the Easyboot Zip is a simple slip-on boot designed to protect the hoof. It's a safer alternative to clumsy foot wraps used for medicating the hoof or keeping the hoof free from dirt and oils. The removable internal leather sole helps pull moisture from the hoof and can be easily removed for cleaning. The Zip is only intended for stall use or standing ties.
The Easyboot Zip is not intended for riding, exercise, or turnout.
As with any hoof or leg related injury, consult your veterinarian or hoof care professional for diagnosis and treatment recommendations.
Removable leather sole insert pulls moisture from the hoof.
Sturdy hook and loop straps with large opening for easy application.
Ideal protection for a variety of uses.
Non-slip tread provides traction (not intended for riding or exercise).

Have a question that's not answered here? Please contact us for more information.
Q Can I throw them in the washing machine?
A Yes, simply remove the leather pad. We suggest cold water and a mild detergent.
Q Can I use them in snow or slippery conditions?
A No, the tread pattern does not provide adequate traction and the boot is designed for a better alternative to clumsy foot wraps for medicating the hoof or keeping the hoof free from dirt and oils.
Q How long can the Zip be left on?
A The Zip is a short-term boot. We recommend no longer than 5 hours, because the boot is not a turn-out boot.
Q Can I use these boots for turn-out?
A No. Turn-out is not recommended in the Zip boot. This boot is specifically designed to protect the hoof from dirt and oils during pre-gluing hoof preparation. It’s also great for medicating the hoof, instead of using wraps.
Q Can I trailer in this boot?
A No. The Zip would not offer adequate hoof protection while trailering. Please consider the Cloud or the Trail for hoof protection while trailering.
Q Can I soak in this boot?
A No. The Zip was designed with less bulk and a non-rigid construction, so it does not support soaking.
Q How tight should the top be closed?
A The hook and loop closure at the top should be snug enough to prevent debris from entering the boot from above. Thanks to the extra thick cushioning around the pastern area, you can fasten it securely without any discomfort or restriction of movement.
Q Can I put a different pad in the boot?
A Yes. If the horse has difficulty supporting himself, you can offer him additional comfort and support to the weight-bearing hoof and leg column during hoof prep. Simply use the pad that comes with the Zip as a template for trimming the Comfort Pad to the correct size.
Q How should I clean the pad?
A Allow the pad to dry, use a brush to get the caked dirt off, then wipe it down with a damp cloth.
Q Are the leather inserts replaceable?
A Yes! Order them online or contact a Product Specialist for assistance.
Q Can this be used for a spare tire on the trail?
A No. These boots are designed to protect the hoof in a controlled environment, and are not meant to withstand the rigors of trail riding.
