As the days get longer and the temperatures increase I hope you are able to find time to spend with your horse. Whether hanging out in your barn or riding, it's hard to spend too much time with such special creatures. Make sure you find the time to do the things that you enjoy!

Our Custom Boot program has been taking around 4 to 10 days for customers to receive their customized boots. Click here to learn more.

"Beyond a shadow of a doubt, Old Mac does the job!"

Steve Jefferys

Steve Jefferys, an Australian Horse trainer, fitted horses with Old Mac's to safely perform at the Asian Games. The Old Mac's gave the horses traction and protection needed to perform at the unique venue.

A horse took center stage at the Opening Ceremony of the 15th Asian Games Doha 2006. For the first time in the history of the Games, a horse was involved in the act of lighting the cauldron. Final torchbearer Sheik Mohammed Bin Hamad Bin Khalifa Al-Thani (horse fitted in Old Mac's) cantered up a steep ramp the height of the stadium to light the flame.

Why Not Four?

by Neel Glass, Ph.D 1977

In a year and a half, riding in over 14 rides each, neither Lucille nor I have thrown an Easyboot in competition. In the 1976 Upper Rio Grande 25 and 50 Miler with about 30 entries, at least four finished with at least one Easyboot after throwing shoes. In the 1976 Los Alamos Fifty, three out of the four first finishers including best condition (Gail Price) wore Easyboots from start to finish. The other top finisher purchased a set the next day. The '76 Virginia City 100: there wasn't an Easyboot thrown by any of the riders (at least four) starting with them. I never got a good count on the number of shoes thrown but it was in the dozens. One well known rider and top finisher threw a shoe four or five times (different feet) and used his Easyboot each time to get in for re-nailing. I couldn't resist: "Why not start with Easyboots and save a lot of time and trouble?"
