Advantages: Easy to care for
Disadvantages: Did not find any

...value. I bought a Wintec saddle some years ago to use for breaking in youngsters. Horses and ponies change shape according to the time of year, diet and the work that they are in. However, their greatest period of change is when they go through the starting process, when they combine physical maturing and development of first working muscle. I bought the Wintec to use on New Forest ponies, which can be barell shaped and hard to fit at the best ...
...matures, the equileather used by Wintec just keeps looking new. Wintecs come with an interchangeable gullet system so that you can change saddle width as necessary. This means you can ensure that you keep the saddle fitting well and make sure that your horse never becomes uncomfortable. Comfort is important for all horses (how can they perform for you if they hurt?) but especially so for youngsters, as a bad experience at breaking can leave long ... Read review

Advantages: Cosy, great fit, easy to fasten, lightweight
Disadvantages: Expensive

...always dreamed of owning a Rambo Wug, and saved religously to buy my first. I am not disappointed at all. I have used my Rambo heavyweight turnout for several horses, and it fits them all superbly, from a skinny Thoroughbred to my chunky cross bred. The Rambo rug is easy to fasten, although the cross surcingles do have a type of locking elastic band on, so can only be turned one way to release them. The lack or leg straps means that I never have ...
...seen my wimpy TB through his first winter out full time. Even on snowy mornings he was cosy and content. It never slips, and so far no horse has had any rubs. I also have several of the equally brilliant Rambo stable rugs, which I cannot recommend enough. ... Read review

Advantages: Easy to put on, durable, cheaper in the long run than shoes
Disadvantages: Expensive one off cost, had to order mine from Arizona so had to wait a few weeks

...pair of the new style Old macs G2 boots for my horse as he was finding it difficult having shoes on his hind feet due to arthritis (He's 31). The old style boots werent the right shape for his feet so I forked out £101 on the G2 boots direct from Easy Care Inc. in Arizona as no one in the UK did them. The weigh just over 1lb each which is great for Pegasus' arthritis and great for me carting them around! They are easy to slip on and I dont need ...
...would advise anyone and everyone to get these especially if their horse has feet or joint problems. Just dont opt for the cheaper fake Old Macs as theyre not as good, dont last as long or fit as well. You do get better quality when you get the real thing! ... Read review

Advantages: Excellent fit, durable, all parts are replaceable
Disadvantages: Initial purchase price is expensive

...research I came across the Marquis Supergrips, and I can honestly say they are fantastic. Although the initial purchase price may seem quite steep (£150ish), all of the parts are replaceable. So whereas with other hoof boots, when the sole is too worn you need to throw them away and start again, with the Marquis you can simply order a new pair of soles (£18ish). This I feel will save a lot of money in the long term. The advantage of hoof boots ...
...and shock absorption. The Marquis boots are very easy to put on. You put the hoof into the boot and then fasten a clip across the front. There is an air chamber in the back of the boot that you then pump up (with the pump supplied or a bicycle pump if you lose it) for a really snug and individual fit. When you want to take the boots off again you release the air from the chamber and unclip the boot, then it simply pulls off. It takes about 1 minute ... Read review
