Description

A Pair of Comfort Pads from Easycare (made from EVA foam).
 
The Easyboot Comfort Pad can be used with ALL makes and models of Hoof Boots!
 
EasyCare comfort pads increase solar support so that all horses, sound or unsound, are encouraged to move correctly. They can also be used to improve the fit of a hoof boot. Use them in hoof boots to help transition a horse from shod to barefoot, or as an aid in the treatment of laminitis, navicular and other hoof ailments.
  • The Comfort Pad is a flat pad designed to increase comfort and reduce concussion, meaning all horses - sound or unsound - are encouraged to move correctly.
  • The pads can also be a useful tool to improve the fit of a boot.
  • The pads will provide cushioning, additional protection and shock absorption to the hoof as well as support to the frog.
  • They are an excellent aid in transitioning a horse from shod to barefoot, and exercise both the internal and external structures of the hoof to help build a stronger hoof capsule.
Comfort Pads are available three densities: Soft, Medium and Firm.
  • Soft (Green) are ideal for very sore light-weight horses, or as the top pad in a stack if required.
  • Medium (Black) is the most popular density as it offers resistance coupled with a good amount of give.
  • Firm (Red) is useful to lift the hoof up if the heel is short or the hoof sits too low in a boot. The Firm pads are also good for use with horses who are heavy on pads, providing the same support as the Medium density pad for a more light-weight horse.
Comfort Pads are available in two thicknesses: 6mm and 12mm. They are approximately 25cm wide x25cm long in size.
  • 6mm is ideal for everyday use, or to stack in any density combination to alter the fit of a boot if the heels are very short or if the hoof sits too low in the boot.
  • 12mm is a brilliant pad to help encourage a hoof to strengthen and improve, a Soft or Medium 12mm is usually the best pad to use on a transitioning horse - the more footsore the horse, the softer the pad required.
EasyCare Comfort Pads must be cut to size. 

    TIPS FOR CUTTING NEW PADS:

    If you are replacing a pad which still had a good shape you can use this as a template to draw around onto the new pad. Alternatively you can make your own template following these steps:

    1. Take some tin foil about twice the length of your boot.
    2. Fold the foil in half.
    3. Place the foil inside your boot and scrunch down the edges of the foil up against the inside of the boot around the sole. 
    4. Carefully remove the foil and place onto your new pad and trace around the edges.
    5. Cut as normal keeping to the inside of your traced line.

      Easy care comfort pads

      This is the second set of comfort pads that I have ordered as my horse needed the 12mm. He is much more comfortable with these than he was the 6mm ones which only lasted 5 rides before wearing through. I hope these will last longer or I will have to look for an alternative. They work well but are too expensive if they are going to last such a short time.

      I bought the 6mm pads which are perfect to add a little more cushioning to the sensitive hoof. I will definitely buy these again. I've only just started using them so I don't know how long they will last. There isn't a template with the pads as they will fit most boots so getting them the exact size took a while.

      The pads are fine but I am concerned about material wastage. The pads are to be cut to fit and although my horse has very large feet there was a lot of left over material but unfortunately not enough to make a pair for another small horse due to odd shape of original product. Otherwise the pads are fine .

      Good product, I recommend.

      My 18yr ex-racer arrived a couple of years ago with underrun heels, long toe and flat feet. Corrective trimming has done wonders but she can still be a little uneven when the ground is dry and hard even with boots. However, with these pads, she is sound, happy and working in a lovely soft outline.

      Brilliant to give my horse a little more cushioning in renegade vipers, I can cut four pads out of one pair.

      Generous quantity

      Published by Nicola Jolly on 21st May 2021

      I havent used the boots with these pads yet, but they seem good. Easy to cut out and generous enough to cut a pad for each boot (size 5 easyboot) from just one piece giving the option to layer up if more padding needed. I would cut more generously next time as I traced around my ponys hoof, but as this is slightly smaller than the boot it doesnt fill the bottom completely. I got them to help improve fit as they seemed too big, and they do look better with the pads. I will try with just bottom pads, but have sufficient foam left to be able to cut a pad to glue to the heel if needed to improve fit.

      12mm Medium

      My horse is wearing a pair of Easyboot sneakers as kept pulling shoes and has damaged his front feet. I purchased the pads for additional support. I was worried as they seemed quite thick at first but after him wearing them for a day I could see how comfortable they would be for him. Also managed to get 2 pads cut out of 1 piece (Size 4 Narrow sneakers) so have a spare piece.
