do i get ariat gaiters to go with my ariat boots?
or do i get long boots??

I've always been a long boots fan but i was brought the gaiters and jod boots and do you know what - they feel amazing - so much more flexibility etc and comfy too!
Ariat ones together look like long boots anyway - depends what you do though - if you were mainly dressage then you might be better off buying long boots as they do look that bit smarter but if you are a bit of an allrounder then i think the gaiter/boot combo really is great!

i do a bit of dressage
but mainly show jump

mum thinks my ariat boots are a bit old now to buy new gaiters for :s
but if i polished them they would be ok i think

if i went for long boots id pick either mountain horses or ariats

whereabouts in cambridge are you planning to get these?!?! cos i live near cambridge and can't find any half decent sized tack shops... please tell me you know of somewhere...?

p.s. ariat long boots.... defo.

 

[dopeesophee]

oh no im not buying these from cambridge :L

ill probably get them from a tack shop around me

ok, there about the same price as mountain horses arent they??

ill just try some on i think

they're a bit more than mountain horse, but if you try them on together you'll feel the difference. they are much much much more comfy than mountain horse ones.

good luck! x

Ariats all the way!!! lol! Although saying that i had some moutain horse muckers that were very good- lasted me forever.
If your short boots are a bit old then go for long boots otherwise you'll notice a difference too much between the gaiters and the boots!

ill see when i get there

its really bad but i dont actually own a pair of cheap boots :s
