Anyone have the Dublin Pinnacle Boots?

[Fransurrey]

Am looking for a new winter boot, as mine have split after two years. Found these on Equestrian Clearance and love the look of them (plus they have a steel shank).

Any thoughts?

i have these boots, absolutely love them, very comfy and kept me nice and warm on cold days

Thanks Gally. What are they like for riding? Are they very supportive across the sole of the foot?

I havn't tried riding in mine yet but I got some at the royal welsh last week and spent two whole days walking round in them - very comfy indeed! I imagine they will be quite supportive of your foot to ride in too (but could be wrong...)

Arrrgh, remembered too late to edit - If you are buying online I would suggest you order a size down! I found them very generous.

I have a pair, wear them most days for teaching and riding in. Very comfy, very warm (a touch too warm in summer occaisionally - get some odour eaters!) and I love riding in them. The ankles do drop after a while.

Meee i absolutely love mine i live eat and breath mine and have since Christmas (Present from the OH) i ride, muck out, walk the dogs and they still look good as new i give them a clean once in while when i do my tack and they come up lovely they are soo comfy. As some one said previous the sizing is generous so you may need a size down.

I have them and love them; the only thing I would say is that they don't stand up very well to heavy use; I got mine for Christmas and use them every day (riding, being around the yard and skipping out - I don't use them for heavy muckouts though!) and they look really, really old! I also keep them well cleaned and supple, but the lining has started to fall apart and one of them is patched inside with duck tape So I do love them - and I would buy them again - but I would question whether they are worth £100+. That said, there isnt much else available in the same price bracket, so...!

Totally agree! Buy a size down. I love mine, I have them on all day.

Ooh I feel a shopping session coming on! I will try to find them at Cranleigh Show next weekend, but if I buy online I might buy my actual size, as I wear orthotics due to my semi-cripple status! Are they stupidly generous, or just toe-wriggly generous?!?!?

I'm a size 6, but I could get on (in Countrywide) a pair of 4 s!!!!! that is how big they are, so I ordered a pair of 5 s and they fit fine, but still roomy.
