If you need more convincing, take a look at what former police K9 handler and current trainer Jeff Schettler thinks: 

“The Dakota 283 Hero Kennel was introduced to me a couple of years ago for the very first time,” he said. “I had used and been a dealer for other kennels, but when I saw the Dakota for the very first time, the quality of the construction, the price point, and the marketing were above par. As a the owner of Georgia K9 National Training center, I need a kennel that is incredibly tough, that can take the abuse — and can be thrown in and out of the truck as you need to. I need a kennel that can have a dog with massive drive getting into it, doing whatever he needs to do inside, and not breaking out of it.  That, honestly, is a big issue with working dogs because they are so high drive that they want to get out there and do something. 

“In my business, we have to have something that is a representation of our company: it has to be incredibly strong and absolutely secure. We found that with the Dakota 283 Hero Kennel.”

EXCELLENT FEET MOISTURE PROTECTION
Size: S (up to size 7)-Beige, Size: S (up to size 7)-Beige
Why did you pick this product vs others?: I have burns on my feet and needed something that I could put burn creme on and still walk around in with. I tried other silicone footsie but they would teae really easily. So far these are doing really well for this purpose. They are holding their shape too. The only caution I have is the same with all silicone footsies: They can be slippery on wet floors, so also wear with socks over them. The biggest issues is when they say a size they mean it. The silicone used in these have little give in them, so they won't stretch out and loose their shape. That can be a good thing, or not so good, depending on how well they fit your feet and what your intent is with wearing these. The other issue is if they fit snug around those toes, that tends to be where the first tear in the material will happen. Because of how these are made, the tear is actually more like cracking in the material and once it occurs you won't be able to get much use out of the sock after that. If you are planning to wear them around the house or for long term use, I suggest going up a size or look for the toeless options.

Silicone socks
Size: M (up to size 9)-Beige
The socks are sized large. The quality of the silicone is good. But they slide around on your feet if you try to walk, making them difficult to use and a bit uncomfortable. Unless you are able to sit for long periods of time the likely will not work well. Recommend looking for a better value.

Fantastic. I put lotion on my feet & wear them when I go to sleep. I often wake up during the night and will remove them to find my feet soft and smooth. They are strong and fit my size 10 womens’ size.

Great product to keep moisture in
Size: M (up to size 9)-Beige
These are so cool. I was skeptical at first. After an at home pedicure I put lotion on and keep these on for about a few hours. The moisture retention, and comfort and fit or absolutely amazing!
