I am a long time user of easy boots. They don't have much traction on slick 
surfaces,as you can tell by looking at the bottom of the boots. I think the 
company does make some kind of calk for the bottom thought that can be added 
for winter use, although I've never tried it. There are numerous tricks to 
getting them on and off. I have a mare with club foot that will not hold them 
no matter what. I also have a Morgan mare with big, roomy feet who will 
probably never have shoes. The easy boots work for her perfectly.
