I think the Epic is probably the best all around, because you can put 
it on over a lose shoe, or a lost shoe and it will stay on, and it's 
not as big and heavy as some of the other ones so shouldn't throw 
your horses gait off, and at the vet check if it does you can always 
find and borrow a 2nd boot to balance things out.  The gaiter folds 
down into the boot, so it takes up basically the same amount of space 
as a regular easyboot.  I've been tying two of them onto the back of 
my saddle, that way I have an extra one for me, and an extra one to 
lend out, or rather -- if I happen to lend one out I still have one 
for me in case I need it!   Another good thing is that if your horse 
takes a 1 on the front and an 0 on the back, you can carry a 1 only 
and it should work on either the 1 or the 0 foot, and you may be able 
to do that with a 2 also, and keep it on a 1 foot, of course try it 
on a training ride first to see before attempting it at an actual ride.
