Im not highly impressed with how the Velcro on my Iconoclast have held up... They also already have hole in them when my CEs never got holes. I like the support they offer so I am looking into the Pro Ortho boots. Does anyone have experience or review on them? Also what is the difference between the H20 H10 and H20?

Absolutely 100% in love with my Pros. I had the same problem with Iconoclasts, I love the idea but they just didn't hold up. I had maybe 8 hours worth of rides into my Iconoclasts and they already had holes and the neoprene was breaking down. Wasn't impressed with their customer service either.
I have probably a solid 100 hours now of use into my Pros and they still look new when I wash them. They're a family company, made in America and their products hold up great. The velcro they use is made specifically for the fabric so while you'd normally get that fuzzy look from the velcro pulling on the threads with other boots, that doesn't happen with the pros. My mom's a vet and she said it's the same medical grade velcro and fabric they use at her work. Pretty cool!
You'd have to double check but I think the H20s are a little thicker than the H10s? I'm not entirely sure. I have the H20s and now have 4 sets.
And they also have a boot exchange going on! So if you have a nasty old pair of any kind of boots, send them in and they'll give you $20 off a new set of Pros.
I'll see if I can find you some photos of my Iconoclasts vs my Pros.

We got a set of splint boots and bell boots in December. We have used the splint boots 4 or 5 times and they still look new. We have not used the bell boots much due to them being much thinner and softer than what we need with the horses we have.
