They are quite pricey and I've been thinking of a pair for my older horse who is barefoot, but tender on some surfaces.
Thanks for any experiences/advice.

I have old macs. I absolutly love them. They have never come off even in the deepest of mud. I have had mine a few years and I love them. No rubs or anything. Easy on easy off.

I don't use them, but my friend just had her horse go barefoot. I saw her collection. Old macs, boas, bare boas, etc. She's now waiting on a pair of cavellos she tried previously that she says so far are the best.
She is a distance trail rider and the trails here are steep and rocky.
Good luck!

I just used a Cavallo on my horse which had lost a shoe. He is recovering from some foot soreness and still has tender soles. My farrier was trying glue-ons, one of which he stepped on and twisted half off. This is not supposed to happen... but... He wore the Cavallo in his paddock and handwalking for a week (while I got a new farrier) and was quite comfortable in it, walked all over gravel and uneven ground just fine. If he ever goes barefoot I will use them!
