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.

Measuring for these was difficult and the 2.00" size just barely fits my dog, making the pullover gaiter a real struggle to get over the hook-and-loop closure without it getting bunched up. They don't seem to stay cinched down as well as I hoped, sometimes slipping off during longer walks in deep snow. A slightly wider opening or more flexible gaiter would make a big difference for easy application.
Our old boots would always get holes after a season, but these redesigned Polar Trex boots are holding up much better. The traction is superior on ice, and the reflective trim is a nice safety feature for our evening walks. Definitely built to withstand proper winter conditions.
These replaced some cheaper boots that always let snow in and these are a definite upgrade. The softshell keeps his paws toasty, and he walks much more comfortably on cold pavement.
Obsidian Black color looks sharp and the glass fiber lugs provide excellent grip.
The stretch gaiter is effective at keeping snow out and the boots secure.
