Renegades are fitted by pros only. So a specified farrier would have access to ordering them for you. Not sure how you find out who.
Bares
Make sure the gaiter is tight and pulled up all the way. I put my bares thorugh a great test this past week end in the mountains of NC. Lots of rocks and mud. The horse went down to his chest next to a creek bank once and about half way another time and the boots did fine.

I actually found a trimmer who sells the Renegades- she is coming out in a few weeks and I will most likely buy some then. Just so darn expensive- I heard they are about $170 a pair- not sure if this is true though- but if they dont rub and stay on, could be just what I am looking for. I do wonder if they are as long lived as Easy Boots- I’m pretty satisfied with them in the wear department.
Saratoga…Keep us informed!!!
I just got my pair of Bares last week. Tried them on my girl they were for. She’s still gimpy RF due to getting over laminitis, and may have rotated a bit there. She trotted off happily with them and sound! I was on the ground, not riding.
I must say for all the folks who have trouble getting these boots on the main tips to make it easy are these two:
rubber mallet
foot powder
I had them on after, oh , 40 seconds EACH, using these. I was expecting a long battle to get them on, but voila!
I also changed the buckles to the EasyUp ones. Also very easy to do.
And a bonus, they fit my other guy, too! :winkgrin:
i tried the powder today too
b/c i think that rolling back the gaiters after rides and drying them that way, causes them to become misshapen faster.
the powder is amazing!
if your girl is recovering from laminitis, i recommend getting comfort pads. she’ll be able to trot w/ you on her back on any surface without pain.
