Depends on what kind of terrain and what kind of riding you are going to be doing. Some horse owners tend to leave their horse's shoes on to protect their hooves, but this can cause the horse to slip and injure itself. If you take your shoes off the horses hooves still grow as much in the winter as the summer so they need a regular trimming. The best way to go is a boot or pad that helps the horse not slip and protects their hooves.
