I need

Newly redesigned, the Polar Trex™ Boots deliver winter paw protection and traction for dogs navigating snow, ice, cold conditions, or snowmelt chemicals. The waterproof and windproof softshell upper keeps paws dry and warm, while a stretch pullover gaiter prevents snow from building up on the hook-and-loop closure for improved boot retention. Winter-specific outsole with glass fiber lugs positioned directly under the dog’s paw provide confident traction on ice and snow with a micro-cleat effect. A hook-and-loop closure makes it easy to put on and cinch down the boots, and reflective trim enhances visibility in low-light conditions.

Glass-fiber winter lugs are key to confident traction on ice, snow, and in cold conditions. This specialized outsole incorporates vertical glass fiber inserts which function similarly to the natural textures found within a dog's own paw anatomy, aiding in superior grip on slick surfaces. Because of this, we recommend keeping these for outdoor use only. 

These come in a set of TWO boots. Many dogs have wider front paws than rear paws. We offer our boots in sets of two so you can order the appropriate sizes for a good fit on both the front and rear paws. Just as you would with your gear, adjust fit and check tension of boot straps 15 minutes into your activity and throughout the adventure as needed.

WHAT’S NEW: An easier-to-use gaiter for improved closure and weather protection as well as an upgraded outsole with micro-glass fiber lugs for enhanced winter traction.

    Awesome Winter Dog Boots

    The Polar Trex winter dog boots are the best!! They even stay on in the deepest of snow. A little pricey but worth the cost.

    Very Nice but...

    They wouldn't stay on my dog, and he didn't like them on either.

    It's too bad because, he would have been able to have more walks.

    Great boots, but needed size change

    I mesured my dogs paws according to instructions on this site, and purchased these boots. They are really nice, protecting his paws in winter conditions. However, they were too snug. I ended up going 2 sizes bigger on the back paws, and 1 size bigger on the front. Much more comfortable for his paws and they do not slip off.

    Great!

    This is the best winter bootie for my setter/collie mix. The traction is great, and her feet stay dry thanks to the water-repellent material. I will say, it took me a while to get the fit right. I emailed with Meredith multiple times, and she was fantastic to help; the customer service was above and beyond. For this reason, I highly recommend Ruffwear, in addition to their amazing quality. I will be getting my pup the Ruffwear socks, I think they will aid in comfort and warmth. Another thing to note is to really have a break-in period for the boots- short walks or indoor sessions will help break them in and avoid sore spots. I am really satisfied with my purchase and can't wait to order more things because the quality is top-notch!
