Lacy Stormes: A Barefoot Showjumping Pioneer

At Scoot Boot, we are thrilled to spotlight Lacy Stormes, a barefoot showjumper based in Acton, Southern California. As the owner of Stormes Horsemanship & Show Jumping, an elite training facility, Lacy has dedicated her career to promoting the barefoot movement.

“I can feel a difference immediately when I'm on a barefoot horse versus a shod horse,” says Lacy. “The barefoot horse, they dig their toes and turn. To me, they feel more competitive, they can turn faster, and they have a better sense of where their feet are.”

“The three pillars of the barefoot movement—diet, movement, and trimming—are crucial to my horses' health,” Lacy explains. “Scoot Boot support this philosophy and enhance my connection with my horses.”

With goals of continued competition and mentorship, Lacy envisions a future where more riders embrace the barefoot approach, supported by innovative Scoot Boot products. “Scoot Boots will play a significant role in the future of the barefoot movement,” Lacy affirms.

Listen to Lacy’s conversation with the Equestrian podcaster Tiger River here. (need link)

Follow Lacy on social media for her latest adventures and insights. We’re also proud to support her and look forward to seeing her continue to shine in the world of showjumping.
