Location: Alberta Canada | I've owned Iconoclasts & personally I prefer the pro orthopedic boots. Same idea, way nicer material & quality & you have options of magnetic & cold pack inserts.....cheaper to buy & also more color options if that's something you care about. |

Location: South Dakota | ampratt - 2014-12-08 10:16 AM Timber Creek - 2014-12-08 8:42 AM I was thinking after Christmas I might have to jump on board and try these. I think the only thing that has held me back is they seem to have so much strapping. The two velcro straps that crisscross in the front look like they would be a little hindering, if that makes any sense. I did try the iconoclast bell boots though and I love them. They are actually easier to put on then all my other wraps, that was a big plus for me. The only thing is the velcro really really grips. They stay so clean, I had absolutly no dirt in mine, they are light weight and durable. My horses are HARD on wraps and boots and these are holding up.
That is one thing I noticed about the bell boots-very light weight. Makes the other brands seem heavy after you use the iconoclast ones. |

My thoughts as well. All my other wraps and boots just feel bulky and weighty after handling the Iconoclasts. I really just like them alot and I honestly feel my horse is moving better in them. |

| I've found the secret to handling Velcro. When putting them on, start at top. When removing, start at the bottom. These boots fit around the fetlock better than any others I've used. That alone must provide comfort to the horse.  |

Location: Wonderful Wyoming | I got all my Iconoclast (and Runners Relief) from here http://www.besthorsegear.com/collections/iconoclast-leg-and-hoof-protection
they have the best customer service and so far prices I haven't seen beat anywhere. They sent me a pair of bells because unbeknownst to me, I missed out on the Black Friday Sale. If you send an email, you get a reply back right away. Just great people. Thought I would share |
