OHHHHHH now I am excited!!! I will defantly let you know how we get on with them. Mr M has has the world's worst abecess and I was told that the investment in hoof boots was definatly the way forward. As soon as the whole on the back of he heel (where it blew threw) clears up I will have a go with them!!!!!!!!!!!! Hoping we can showjump in them?!
 
Affiliated I am not sure on but easy enough to check on that but I think they are the best for it that's for sure. A lady did a review on them for sj, I remember from researching them a couple of years ago, who it was I am not sure... Maybe it was nic barker... I'll try and root around on google later. Off to ride now.
 
I've had several pairs but sold them in the end when the gloves came out. The gloves were much quicker to put on and my lad prefered them.
Also the gloves are so much cheaper. My last pair were £88 incl delivery and I have found they have a longer lifespan when doing roadwork.
Sorry, I don't suppose this will make me very popular.

It's funny you say that because even though I think they are wicked, they only suit the type of foot shape shown in their vids. It wouldn't have suited my boys feet as they were more long and thin rather than perfectly round. This is why they have had such mixed reviews.

I had a pair of cavallos in the end but thats the only ones to suit the foot shape. The Easycare.inc range would never have done him I don't think.
 
I love mine, don't use them often but really rate them, never had a rub even on long rides that go through mud.
 
I find Gloves far superior to Renegades (which I used to love), Renegades have poor grip in comparison and Gloves are so snug that it is not like wearing boots at all. My Renegades only cost just over £100 when the exchange rate was far better 4 years ago.
 
yes the exchange rate hasn't helped plus the fact that you get clobbered for VAT and duty before they will deliver them which is around 26% in total. They also charge VAT on the shipping which seems really mean.

I'll only be needing the renegades for prolonged riding stoney tracks so the grip issue shouldn't be a problem. It was a toss between the gloves and the renegades for me I guess we will just have to see how we get on with them.
 
I thought these boots were for longer than rounded hooves because my mares hooves are 115-116 width 127 length which is perfect for the size 0 renegades. I bought gloves for the back size 1.5 but they are slightly wide for her and fall off now and again but the 1 is to small in length. I love the funky colours of the renegades though. Which colour did you go for?

Is that £225 or $225 for a pair or for a full set? :confused:

I have a pair of 2ww's coming from the US as well, I paid £138-$212 inc postage.

Sorry $225 dollars inc express psotage be warned you will have to pay a duty import tax of £41!!!! that was a shock to the system!! They have arrived so going to try them today!!!

I went for black in the end as Mr M is a 17hh grey warmblood I did not think he would appreciate pink or orange!!! HEHEHEHE
 
Mine still haven't arrived despite them having arrived into the UK on the 5th according to the tracking, only just got the letter for how much the VAT/Customs Duty today, £26.00 to pay, hopefully get them Tueday.

I'd be interested to hear how you get on with them annunziata.
 
Well just thought I would report on Mr Moose and the renegades......we LOVE THEM. They are fabulous!!! He is working really well and I have even managed to go for a little ride around the house and I am soo pleased with him!!! I have even manged to enter his first ever show which i would not have been able to do without them as he still has the whole in his foot!!!
