Polar Trex™ Winter Dog Boots

winter traction & insulation

Color

Selected: Obsidian Black

I need

The Polar Trex dog snow boots provide warmth, traction, and protection so those paws can keep exploring in winter conditions.

Constructed with an insulated softshell upper for breathable, weatherproof warmth in extreme cold and inclement weather. The Ruffwear-designed Vibram® Icetrek™ outsole provides traction on frozen surfaces and is a barrier against cold and snow-melt chemicals. The hook-and-loop closure cinches at the narrowest part of the dog’s leg for a secure fit. Zip the stretch gaiter over the closure to protect the hook-and-loop from snow build-up.

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.

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.

WATERPROOF UPPER

Waterproof, windproof, breathable softshell upper fabric.

WINTER-SPECIFIC LUG DESIGN

Vibram® Icetrek® non-marking rubber outsole with winter-specific lug pattern provides superb traction on frozen surfaces.

STRETCH GAITER

Pullover stretch gaiter with zippered closure helps keep snow out.

    Jackson is loving his Polar Trex Winter Boots

    We go for a daily 3-mile walk in a local park with our 9.5-year-old Rottweiler, Jackson, and this year is a snowy, icy, and slushy one with salt put down in areas. We have been looking at Ruffwear boots for a while now and figured they were the best option for our 4-legged friend. We did test runs at home and realized the front paws were too big. We returned them and did an outdoor test walk with the hind legs while waiting for the correctly sized front ones, and he did great. We have all four boots now, and he is loving his cold, winter(*) walks. (*)I don't have a picture with a bunch of snow on the ground 🫣

    10/10! Nice job Ruffwear!

    I’ve tried so many different types of boots and shoes for my dog and these are by far the best. We live in New England and it gets cold! They heavily salt the roads up here and even with paw balm and washing his feet, my dog’s feet were bad last year. I tried other boots but we’d loose them in the snow or he’d refuse to walk. I ordered these boots over the summer and got him used to them. We just got our first snow storm of the season and after an hour of walking in 7” of snow and ice, his feet stayed completely dry.

    Make sure you measure both your dog’s front and back paws, mine wears 2 different sizes.

    Winter boots

    My older pup has had these same boots for a few years and they have been perfect in every way.

    Younger pup has his own pair now and both are ready for snow trips!

    Works great!

    Took my dog a while to get used to wearing shoes, but they fit perfectly and protect his paws well! The snow likes to get stuck between his pads and clearly causes him pain, so these are great at letting him be outside longer than just to do his business.

    The best boots ever!

    These are the best boots that I have ever used for my dogs. I have used this company for my dogs for years and have never been disappointed.
