Old Mac’s G2 - Frequently Asked Questions
Q Are Old Mac’s G2s comfortable for my horse?
A Yes. When fitted properly, the G2 allows full freedom of movement. This keeps pressure low on the hoof wall and spread evenly throughout the whole boot, so that no one area receives concentrated pressure. All materials are flexible and soft against the pastern.
Q Am I going to be able to put the Old Mac’s G2 on my horse on my own?
A Yes, the simplicity and practical design of the G2 means anyone can fit this boot.
Q Where can I ride with my Old Mac’s G2s?
A You can ride anywhere, on any terrain, at any speed, with 100% hoof protection.
Q Can I turn my horse out wearing the Old Mac’s G2?
A Yes, you can turn your horse out in the G2s if he needs protection on that particular terrain, or to shorten the break-in period of the boots.
Q Do I need to gradually break my horse into the Old Mac’s G2?
A Yes, it is recommended that you give your horse time to adjust to wearing in any style, including the G2. The first time that you fit your horse, just walk him out. Gradually increase the duration and length of rides. Too much too soon can lead to chafing. If your horse has particularly sensitive skin, use the EasyCare gaiters (included), vet wrap or a small bandage during the initial stages of using the G2.
Q Can I ride my horse with the Old Mac’s G2 over metal shoes?
A Yes, if you intend to use the G2 over metal shoes, take the hoof measurements after the horse is newly shod to ensure a correct size. Please be aware that wearing hoof boots over metal shoes voids the EasyCare Guarantee.
Q I understand that I can only return boots that are unused. How can I determine if the boots fit without going for a ride?
A We back all of our products with the EasyCare Guarantee. If you are not completely satisfied with the product for any reason, EasyCare will gladly refund your purchase price (excluding shipping and handling) within 45 days of purchase.
Q Do I require the same size G2 on the front and rears?
A Not necessarily. Always take hoof measurements as soon as possible after a fresh trim and measure each hoof separately. Correct size selection and proper fitting are very important and will ensure maximum performance from the G2.
Q How long can I leave the Old Mac’s G2s on?
A We recommend that you do not leave the G2s on for more than 12 hours at a time. You should check both the hooves and boots for rubs, remove any debris from the boot, and let the boots and hooves air before putting them back on again.
Q Are the Old Mac’s G2 boots worn on all four feet?
A That is really a personal preference. It depends on distance covered, proper fit, and type of terrain.
Q Do the Old Mac’s G2s fit the same as the Old Mac’s Original?
A No, please refer to the size chart for the Old Mac’s G2.
Q Do Old Mac’s G2s have good traction?
A Yes, Old Mac’s G2s have superb traction on all surfaces including aggressive mountainous terrain, creek beds, asphalt, loose gravel, and wet grass where horses can lose their footing. Old Mac’s G2s all-terrain sole pushes out mud, sand and debris. The high-performance tread remains intact rather than becoming smooth and slippery.
Q Can the Old Mac’s G2 get waterlogged?
A No, there are drainage holes built into the sole of the boot.
Q Can I use the Therapy Click System with this boot?
A No. The New Mac is not compatible with the Therapy Click System.
