ULTRA DURABLE HOOF BOOTS

The material used to make our Hoof Boots is an ultra durable polyurethane for a very long lasting boot, which is also designed to deliver even more hoof and joint protection than the horse would get barefoot without hoof boots.

Viper® Shield is the hardest wearing material - You can expect 600-800 miles out of Viper hoof boots in Standard Colors.

Viper® Vivid™ is an ultra durable polyurethane resulting in an extremely long lasting boot, while offering a very slightly softer material, and Viper® Glow material has slightly more give.

MADE IN THE USA

Renegade® hoof boots were invented in and are made in the United States of America.

The Renegade® Viper™ Shield Hoof Boot provides durable, lightweight, long-lasting hoof protection for barefoot horses, eliminating the expense of metal shoes and allowing natural flexion of the hoof for optimum circulation and healthy hooves.

Viper™ Hoof Boots have been developed over 20 years for maximum mileage, hoof stability and endurance hoof boot for barefoot horses. With competition-proven pivoting heel captivator design, a military grade cabling system and durable straps, the Viper™ Hoof Boot features a sleek look and bright colors, while the ultra-durable polyurethane used to make the Viper™ results in a seriously tough, long-lasting boot. Deep tread grooves provide longer-lasting grip to bite the ground, and display the artistic talent of our hoof boot designer, Kirt Lander.

This hoof boot design was trimmed down using finite element analysis, resulting in a hoof boot with more robust tread which weighs around 15% less than the Classic, and offers more lateral clearance on both the Boot Shell and the Heel Captivator. A deeper Heel Captivator 'gullet' allows for improved pastern bone clearance. The inside of the hoof boot is texturized and the Heel Captivator Liner is bonded in place for more stability in action. The Viper™ logo and boot size are stamped large inside of each boot for quick and easy size readability.

Couldn't be more pleased with my first experience with Renegade boots. I loved being able to send detailed pictures in of my horses feet and then be provided with the right boot option. The first wasn't picture on the front and customer service couldn't have been anymore more fantastic to work with and get these boots fitting perfectly. Loved them so much that I am now eagerly awaiting a second full set for my other horse! Will now be a long time customer to renegade.

Customer video review of Renegade® Viper Shield™ Hoof Boot Seconds - Black Knight

I was skeptical about these boots… couldn’t imagine spending $$$ on them and not just getting shoes. But- alas- they’re pretty spectacular. My mare loves them & shows zero ouchiness on rocks now. I am worried I got the wrong size but I emailed Renegade for their opinion. Can’t wait to hear back! They did help me in picking size & helped answer all of my questions.

Customer photo review of Renegade® Viper Shield™ Hoof Boot Seconds - Black Knight

These have been great! They have never come off or rubbed. They keep my horse comfortable and happy! Easier than another brand to put on and take off. My only "complaint" is sometimes I have very minor problems with getting the heel captivator in place but that's probably a me thing! I'm in love and don't see myself buying anything else now

Customer photo review of BLEMISH Renegade® Viper™ - Black Knight - 135x135

I can't say enough good things about Renegade boots! I was a life-long user of another brand until I found the Renegade Viper boot; it is far superior to ANY OTHER BOOT MADE! As a trainer, I get a lot of horses with challenges and one of the first things I look at are their feet! I prefer horses-in-training stay barefoot, so I require most clients to buy Renegade boots when training starts. They never come off, the fit is great, and I use them on the trail and in the arena!

BLEMISH Renegade® Viper™ - Black Knight - 135x135

Store owner replied: Hi Christina, Thank you so much for the phenomenal review and for sharing a photo with us! Coming from a lifelong user of another brand, your high praise means the absolute world to us! Hearing that you consider the Viper far superior to any other boot made is a massive compliment, especially given your expertise. As a trainer, your focus on starting from the ground up with a horse's feet is so important. We are honored that Renegades are your go-to tool for keeping your horses-in-training comfortable and barefoot, whether you are working in the arena or heading out on the trail. Knowing that they give you the great fit and "never come off" reliability you need for a variety of horses is exactly what we strive for! Thank you for your incredible support and for recommending our boots to your clients. We wish you and all of your training horses the absolute best! Best regards, Renegade Hoof Boot Support

I've only had them on the horse 2 times so far, in the ring. I've not yet been out on the trails. They seem to fit correctly, and I'll change my rating based on how they handle different terrain.

Store owner replied: Hi Vicki, Thank you for your review! We're glad to hear they are fitting well in the ring so far, and we hope you have a great time taking them out on the trails! Best, Renegade Hoof Boot Support

Store owner replied: Thank you so much for the great review, Amelia! We are thrilled to hear that the Black Knight Vipers fit so well and that you and your horse are happy with them. Happy trails! Best regards, Renegade Hoof Boot Support

Love the boots! They are for my coming 5 year old mare who is happy in the pasture and arena but gets picky about footing whenever we are out on the trails and works to avoid stepping on rocky ground. These have allowed her to stay barefoot but have the comfort and confidence to really excel on the trails. We are both happy campers and I could not find a single flaw in the boots despite them being seconds!!

Renegade® Viper Shield™ Hoof Boot Seconds - Black Knight

Store owner replied: Hi Hilary, Thank you so much for the wonderful review! We are absolutely thrilled to hear how well the Viper Shield™ Seconds are working out for your coming 5-year-old mare. It can be so tough when a horse is perfectly happy in the arena but struggles with that transition to rocky trail footing. We love hearing that these boots have given her the exact comfort and confidence she needs to excel out there while still allowing her to stay barefoot! It sounds like you two are going to have an amazing partnership as she continues to grow. We also love that you couldn't find a single flaw in your Black Knight boots—our "seconds" discount section is a favorite for that exact reason! Thank you for choosing Renegade to keep your mare happy and confident on the trails. Happy riding to both of you! Best regards, Renegade Hoof Boot Support

Perfect fit and do exactly what I need for my pony with side bone, without causing rubs. Great product! And they stay on very well.

Renegade® Viper Shield™ Hoof Boot Seconds - Black Knight

Store owner replied: We are so glad your pony is happy in them! Thank you for the great feedback.

I had an excellent experience with Renegade Hoof Boots! This was my first time ordering through them, and I ordered two pairs of boots for two different horses. The customer service was outstanding, they were extremely personal and took the time to actually call me about hoof sizing to make sure I received the correct fit. They went above and beyond to help me get the boots quickly because I needed them before an upcoming event. For one of my horses with a more difficult-to-size hoof, they even included an extra shell so I could ensure the best fit possible. I was very impressed with the level of care, attention to detail, and commitment to making sure both horses had the right boots. The whole process was easy and reassuring, and I truly appreciate how much effort they put into helping their customers. I would absolutely recommend Renegade Hoof Boots and will definitely be a returning customer!

Renegade® Viper Shield™ Hoof Boot Seconds - Black Knight

Store owner replied: Hi Michelle, Thank you so much for taking the time to share your experience with us! Welcome to the Renegade family. We know how stressful it can be trying to size two different horses—especially with an upcoming event on the calendar—so we are thrilled that our team could step in, get those boots to you quickly, and provide that extra shell for your trickier-to-size horse. Hearing that you felt cared for and reassured throughout the process means everything to us. Thank you for your wonderful recommendation, and we look forward to helping you and your horses for years to come! Good luck at your events! Best regards, Renegade Hoof Boot Support

I'm still getting used to these boots. I had to adjust the cables all the way out as far as it would go. I would like it if the cables could be adjusted just a little longer.

My mare was wearing renegades on her front feet, but was very reluctant to walk on gravel roads - her feet are flat and she has thin soles- added these back boots and she is so much more comfortable!! Goes everywhere willingly and happily! Thank you for such a great product!!! Luna thanks you too!!

I was very excited to get these but quickly disappointed. Contacted the sizing team and ordered the size they told me to get for my horse. The size was way off and they were extremely huge on my horses feet and am unable to use them. The company won't pay for shipping for the exchange according to their policy even though it was the company's fault for informing me of a very incorrect size. It would make sense if the purchaser chose the incorrect size but in my case it was the company who incorrectly informed. Now i am stuck with boots i cant even use and a big loss of money. They need to change their policy for circumstances like these. Very disappointed and unhappy with this experience.

Renegade® Viper Shield™ Hoof Boot Seconds - Black Knight

Store owner replied: Hi T,Sorry the Viper Shields aren't fitting as hoped. Our sizing recommendations are based on the info provided, but hoof boots often need an on-horse fit check—which is why we encourage reaching out before posting reviews. You could have contacted us first for a quick exchange instead of leaving two identical reviews on the same order. We’re happy to do a size swap (you cover return shipping per policy, we cover the replacement outbound). Just email or call us to get it started within the 90-day window.

Does my horse need Vipers or Classic Hoof Boots?

Read our article on the differences and benefits of each model of hoof boot here.

Can I add customizations?

Yes. Simply click on your desired options from above and add them to your cart. Be sure to add any information in the cart notes - for example if you buy 4 boots but want to swap heel captivators on only two, or add studs only on the front boots, please provide plenty of detail so we can make the customizations to the right boots!

What if I want to buy more than one boot?

Just adjust the quantity for each size / model boot you need. Please let us know in the notes field at checkout which hoof the boots will go on, so we can put the velcro on facing the right way for each hoof.

If you buy a pair or a set of 4 we will assume that these are going left and right and put the velcro on as a pair or a set.

How long will Renegade hoof boots last?

Mileage will depend on the terrain, speed, and how the horse moves. On average, it is expected to get 500-600 miles out of the Classic model, and 600-800 miles out of the Vipers.

Abrasive rough terrain, or horses who drag their toes will likely get fewer miles out of their boots.
