Advice on riding boots

[autumnsky]

I'm currently riding in my country boots which don't give a lot of support and I have been having a fair bit of ankle pain. I have seen a physio and the pain has been reduced but I am looking for some long riding boots that have good ankle support, any recommendations? Something that I could wear around the yard as well as riding in would be best, and good value for money is essential! Thanks!

I love my ariat bromonts - but I keep them for riding in!

if you have small enough feet, definitely get the junior bromonts-they're only £150! bargain! got mine a few months ago and love love love them.

Sorry to hijack this thread but i was about to post a similar question - i was looking at some riding boots last night as i've only ever ridden in rubber riding boots so decided to treat myself to something a bit more modern and comfortable for ankle support. However when looking online most of them seem to have treads on the bottom??

I know i'm a bit old school but i've always been taught that treads + riding = a big no no??

Also have bromonts, they're lovely

country boots are not generally made for riding in.

Ariat definitely. I have the Devon quantum pro paddock boots and have no ankle pain whatsoever. I'm crippled in anything else!

Thanks for the advice everyone. My boss also recommended Ariat. I guess I'll just have to invest in a pair!
