Rolf-Göran Bengtsson

Rolf –Göran started testing Öllöv in late 2021 with a great interest in added welfare for his horses whenever possible, and a curiosity of what the added shock-absorption from the rubber could do both for welfare and performance.

Niklas Arvidsson

”Several of my horses, both young horses and some of our top performing horses, have Öllöv rubbershoes and I feel the horses are happy and comfortable with them. The excellent and safe grip in stables and while transporting is a great added benefit that helps make horses calm and relaxed.”

Team Strauss

Team Strauss, a family where everyone competes in combined driving. Elise, Felix and Sofie, are all in the youngsters driving team of Sweden 2019. When driving, and having a pressure from behind due to quickly reduction of speed or in the need for a heavy push forward, it demands a lot of the horses trust and body-strength to handle. With a better grip and shockabsorption, it makes it so much better for the horses. We would say that, both us and our horses have better self-confidence with the grip and can perform more relaxed. And above all other positive things the horse’s hoofs grow better and we have had no drop shoes since we started using them!

Miguel da Fonseca

”Everything is about respecting the horse, to create a relationship and teamwork without dominance”. “With Öllöv the horses feel much more relaxed on slippery surfaces. I can work with them without thinking about that they might slip. I travel a lot and go to different shows where the horses have to perform their best, and Öllöv SoftStep makes that possible. I have no doubt horses work better when they are relaxed and comfortable.”

Marcus Westergren

”I have Öllöv SoftStep on all my competition horses including the horses I jumped in 2 nations cups with  and won Swedish Championship in 2019. The horses seem to enjoy the rubbershoes and are performing well with them. I see several advantages from them, horses are safe and stable on all different surfaces and we avoid slipping injuries. The shoes that are softer and wider than steelshoes, offer more surface to land on in each step, which I think is very positive. We don’t use any soles on the horses since we started with Öllöv and we have a lot less lost shoes.”

Claire Wyatt

“The benefits I and my riders have seen since my stallions have been wearing Ollov SoftStep shoes has been incredible! They are now much more secure and comfortable which in turn has made their movement improve tenfold. We also love the fantastic grip they provide giving confidence to the stallions when travelling and when turned out in the fields.”
