Your Dog’s Paws Are Getting Burned — How Singapore Pet Parents Snag wagwear Boots for Less
The Singapores’ tropical weather swings between scorching heat and sudden downpours — and both are tough on your dog’s paws. Sun-baked pavement can climb well above the air temperature and burn sensitive paw pads, while flooded streets after the rain leave puddles full of dirt and chemicals. To protect your fur baby, a pair of stylish, functional dog boots is a pet parent’s best friend, and the most iconic of all are the WagWellies® from New York pet brand wagwear.
Want authentic wagwear for your pup without paying inflated reseller prices? This guide breaks down all three WagWellies® boot lines (rain, hot-weather and sport), plus several best-selling functional pieces and a harness, and shows you how to bring them home from the USA at original retail price using Buy&Ship’s shipping forwarding and proxy shopping services.
📌 TL;DR｜Quick Summary
・What is wagwear? A New York–based pet lifestyle brand known for blending style with function. Its signature WagWellies® dog boots use a patented design and, per the brand, have been worn by hundreds of thousands of dogs worldwide.
・Why it suits Singapore: Three boot lines match our hot-and-wet climate — the original rubber rain boot for puddles, the breathable Mojave to shield paws from hot pavement, and the Sport for drainage, ventilation and grip. From US$55 (approx. S$70).

What is wagwear & can you buy it in Singapore?
A cult-favourite functional pet brand from New York
wagwear is a pet lifestyle brand from New York, long celebrated for designs that blend style with function. Its range spans boots, apparel, harnesses, leashes and carriers — all built to be durable and practical while keeping a clean, urban look. The best known of all is its signature, patented dog boot line, WagWellies®, which the brand says has been worn by hundreds of thousands of dogs around the world.
Hot and wet: why Singapore dogs need boots
In Singapore’ hot, rainy climate, paw pads are especially vulnerable:
- Hot-pavement burns: At midday, asphalt and concrete can be far hotter than the air, scorching bare paw pads. A breathable boot adds vital insulation.
- Puddles & hygiene: Post-rain floodwater is full of dirt and chemicals. Boots keep paws off the grime and make clean-up at home far easier.
- Grip & safety: On slick mall floors or muddy trails, a treaded sole improves traction and reduces slips.
Where can you buy wagwear in Singapore?
wagwear currently has no official store or website in Singapore and sells mainly through its US website. However, that site mainly serves the American market: international shipping is expensive and not every item ships to Singapore, making it costly to order on your own.
💡 The smartest way to buy: Order directly on the wagwear US site and use Buy&Ship forwarding to send it to our US (tax-free state) warehouse and on to you; or, if you’d rather not check out yourself, use Buy&Ship Proxy Shopping and we’ll buy it for you. Both guarantee 100% authentic goods at original retail price — usually cheaper than a local reseller.
WagWellies® 3 Boot Lines (Rain / Hot-Weather / Sport)
Every WagWellies® pair is sold as a set of 4 and uses a patented easy on/off design that stays put. The three lines each have a speciality that suits Singapore’ changeable weather. Before ordering, measure your dog’s paw width and use the brand’s “Find My Dog’s Size” tool.
1. WagWellies® by wagwear — the original rubber rain boot (best for rain)
The brand’s classic: a slip-on “Wellington” boot made of 100% rubber, waterproof and built to last — the top pick for splashing through puddles and slick streets in the rainy season. The patented design makes them easy to slip on while hugging the paw, so they stay on even at a run.
Sizes & colours: XXXS to XXXL, in 10 colours (Bone, Red, Pink, Yellow, Brown, Purple, Black, Navy, Green, Orange). Set of 4.
※ Contains natural rubber latex — note if your dog or you have a latex allergy.
US price: US$60 (approx. S$77)
2. WagWellies® Mojave — breathable hot-weather boot (best for heat)
Designed for hot, dry weather, the Mojave protects paws from the hazard of hot pavement — perfect for sun-baked Singapore sidewalks. Perforated holes provide plenty of ventilation, while the patented build makes them easy to slide on yet secure enough to stay put on the run. Sleek, sturdy and comfortable.
Sizes & colours: XXXS to XXXL with up to 11 colours, including the new summer Lavender, plus Sage, Pale Pink, Hot Pink, Cobalt Blue, Black, Golden, Sand, Red, Chocolate and Purple. Set of 4.
US price: US$55 (approx. S$70)
3. WagWellies® Sport — performance boot (best for active dogs & transitional weather)
The brand’s new high-performance crossover boot for more active dogs, combining Wellie coverage with drainage and ventilation holes for transitional weather. Made from lighter silicone, with a tread that continues up the back of the boot for extra traction and reduced heel wear. A textured interior foot bed grips the paw, and the lower-cut back clears the carpal pad for a better fit. Light-reflecting lettering on the strap adds safety on low-light walks.
Sizes & colours: XXS to XXL in 3 colours (Volt Yellow, Flare Orange, Retro Blue), with a white ripstop bag. Set of 4.
US price: US$69 (approx. S$88)
Other wagwear functional must-haves
Beyond its signature boots, wagwear offers plenty of practical, good-looking functional apparel and accessories worth adding to your order:
Nylon Coverall — waterproof four-leg raincoat
A water-resistant jacket in durable nylon with a unique four-legged full-coverage design that keeps your dog dry and mud-free on rainy walks — and far easier to clean up at home, ideal for the Singapore wet season. Sized by back length (inches), 8 to 24, in Apricot, Yellow, Navy and Mauve.
US price: US$65 (approx. S$83)
Puffer Vest — reversible insulated vest
A popular reversible vest that’s warm, wind-proof and water-resistant. A nylon outer shell with alternative-down poly filling makes it lightweight and highly compressible, easy to stuff away — great for air-conditioned spaces or cooler days. Sizes 8 to 24, in Blue/Cobalt, Black, Yellow/Green and Red/Pink.
US price: US$75 (approx. S$96)
Color-Block Padded Harness
A padded mesh color-block harness that’s as functional as it is eye-catching — soft and breathable, with both front and back clip attachments for flexible leash setups. Bold colourways include Green/Orange, Red/Pink, Navy/Red, Black/Cobalt and Orange/Olive. Sizes XS to L.
US price: US$32 (approx. S$41)

Shopping wagwear from overseas: FAQ
Q1: Does wagwear ship directly to Singapore?
wagwear’s US site mainly serves the American market; direct international shipping to Singapore is costly and not available for every item. We recommend Buy&Ship forwarding — send your order to our US (tax-free state) warehouse and we’ll forward it home — or Buy&Ship Proxy Shopping, where we buy it for you.
Q2: How do I choose the right WagWellies size?
WagWellies® are sold as a set of 4 in sizes XXXS to XXXL. Measure the width of your dog’s paw and check it against the brand’s “Find My Dog’s Size” tool — don’t size by breed or weight alone. If you’re between sizes, size up.
Q3: What if my dog isn’t used to wearing boots?
Getting a dog used to boots takes time. An amusing high-step at first is completely normal — they can’t feel the floor, which throws off their coordination, and they need a moment to readjust. Often it helps to head straight out on a walk; once distracted, they usually realise they can walk and run as usual.
Q4: How is Buy&Ship different from a local reseller?
Ordering on the wagwear site with Buy&Ship forwarding, or using Buy&Ship proxy shopping, guarantees 100% authentic goods at official retail price with transparent costs. Local resellers may add steep markups and handling fees, and popular items carry a counterfeit risk. The proxy service fee is 6% of the item value, and even with shipping it’s usually cheaper than a reseller — and far more reliable.
