Finally took the horse boots that I bought out on a real trail today, I did use the Cavallo pastern wraps in all 4 boots too, they're not expensive and the added protection doesn't hurt. We went over a lot of rocks, through water and mud and thick brush! The boots were awesome, she didn't slip on the rocks or grass or mud... although she did spook and buckle over her back boots hitting the first branch, but she got over it (She's never been shod or had anything foreign on her feet). I didn't have to take them off to clean anything out of them all and there were only a few blades of grass and some dirt in them when I took them off after a full day's trail ride and she wasn't sore at all. I totally recommend them to anyone who doesn't want to shoe.
On another note, I sumitted 6 pairs of boots to the fundraiser for Canadian Trails... http://www.keencanada.ca/BootsAcrossCanada/HowItWorks.aspx. Including a picture of my horses' boots :) which I hope they accept!
