Haven’t tried the Old Macs or the Cavallos. I disliked the Boas, they are very clunky, the horses don’t travel well in them, I cannot lope in them, and they do come off. But if your horse has flared hooves, none of the Easyboots will stay on very well which is very frustrating and results in torn boots or gaiters. The only boots that I have had stay on besides the Trail and the Back Country boots are the Easyboot Edge boots, which have a worm clamp tightener and a padded tongue to keep them on snugly. I have owned every boot that Easyboot has made. I am guessing that if someone has had problems keeping these boots on, they must be improperly sized and maybe they are not pressing down on the velcro to firmly attach it. I haven’t had my velcro loosen or peel up, it holds firm.

They are also super easy to put on - all you have to do is open up the boot all the way and slip the hoof in, then you pull the side pieces around to the back tightly and secure them with the very strong velcro. The velcro on both boots is VERY strong and the boots don’t even turn on the hoof at all. I ride through very rough terrain and we gallop a lot and both the Trail and the Back Country boots stay on the hooves very well, they do not come off. Unlike a previous post on this forum, I have not lost either boots on my horses in water or in thick, gumbo clay mud.

I own a pair of the Easyboot Trail boots and a pair of the Easyboot Back Country boots, so I feel like I can give you a good answer about the boots.
