I have no other need for such boots, but I’ve got a horse I’m doing quite a bit of hauling with, including a couple longer trips this summer, and I think he might appreciate the benefits of something like a Soft Ride boot.
Who uses them for hauling, specifically? Did you notice an appreciable difference in the horse’s level of fatigue/comfort after a long haul, especially in horses that have some confirmed level of arthritis?
I use four EasyBoot Clouds for long distance hauling (1,000 mi) with shippers. In my own trailer for rides of several hours, I have an anti-fatigue mat under her front feet. I have seen no difference. However, I do it for protection against long term damage to joints and soft tissue, not an immediate change.
