Many people enjoy Mountain riding; the energy of this amazing terrain draws us. Did you know healthy, strong hooves get traction and can go for days, weeks and months in the mountains? If hoof protection is needed, the use of hoof boots or composite shoes are options. Hoof boots and composites last longer and get much better traction. Hoof boots provide complete protection of the sole and allow the hoof to flex within the boot. Composites are a much better option over metal shoes as they allow for better traction and prevent the concussive forces that horses receive with metal shoes.
