July 26, 2001, Bend, OR ö Canine products manufacturer Ruff Wear recently announced that it has redesigned its popular Bark Nâ Boots with an innovative three dimensional profile.

Dogâs paws arenât flat, so why should their boots be? Our Bark Nâ Boots have been completely redesigned to fit and function better on active dogs. We used years of feedback from in-house test critters and dedicated four legged friends to develop our advanced three-dimensional design. A flat sole, combined with our 3D upper accommodates paw volume, fits more paws with greater comfort and makes it easier then ever to choose the right size. An articulated cuff allows for a natural curve that mimics the shape of a dogâs ankle and paw. The Reprotek¨ high mileage sole provides an exceptionally grippy surface that remains flexible, allowing dogs to maintain tactile contact with terra firma. 500 Denier Cordura¨ uppers are durable yet provide the fit and flexibility required for your athletic dog.

With the introduction our new 3D Bark Nâ Boots, we have added a much requested XS size to our line up to fit the little pups who play like the big dogs. The XS size utilizes a Toughtek¨ sole to provide flexibility and fit for our smaller friends.

Available colors ö Red, Royal and Black. Sizes XS through XXL. Retail $36.0.
