I added refreshed, which is also a popular one this summer, to the alternative meanings section but it doesn't appear here

Actually, I would probably use 'update' here.

Note from asker:
| Unfortunately, rebooted boots doesn't sound very logical, ha ha ha, if you understand what I mean Karen.... |
| @neilmac: unfortunately the word boot does appear in the phrase in question :-0(( |
Peer comment(s):

neilmac
: Unlike Eileen, I think the pun works very well, especially if the word "boot" doesn't actually appear in the phrase in question.

: If the English is properly tweaked, this could work very well indeed. For example, in big bold type: [name of model of boot], followed by period, followed by "Rebooted." (maybe in bolder type or a different color).

Although I honestly don't see why you couldn't say "revamped", which I actually think sounds better than the rather anodyne "renewed". And "rebooted" is a hoot and works a treat IMHO...

Refreshed…and Liz's suggestion of "redesigned" is also good... We're spoilt for choice really...
