Do I Need Help - Boots

[jnb]

OK I think I may need help .....lol
I was putting on my Ariat Bromonts this morning and thinking how much I love them, so warm comfy, smart etc etc. Am I mad to want to buy another pair just in case they discontinue them?

I have to admit (God this is like Therapy) I have too many boots - I have lost a lot of weight in the past 18 months and I now have:

1 x Bromonts
2 x MH High Caliber, one pair now too big, the other a little tight (but they look sooo good!)
1 x Regent Show boots with garter strap (now too big)
1 x Caldene Show Boots (also a little big but I wear them and they look/feel great)
1 x MH Winter Fusion High Riders
1 x Tuffa Suffolks
1 x Dubarrys

Do I need help?!
More importantly - Should I buy another pair of Bromonts in case they discontinue them?
Am I mad?!

In my defence (your honour) I wear the Bromonts for schooling and dressage.....just love 'em

well for start off you can tell me if i should send my new bromonts back - they feel really tall on me - i mean can hardly bend my knee tall - would prob be fine for schooling/dressage but i wanted an all round boot and worrying about xc length stirrups - will they drop much?!

secondly - are your Regent Show boots with garter strap for sale?? tehehe

thirdly - one can never have too many pairs of boots

(esp if you sell me your regent ones if they're my size

)

The Bromonts do drop a little - around just under an inch maybe? You can get heel risers (Mountain Horse do them online in Ride-Away catalogue) that might get you through the painful bit!
I rode with mine with the popper undone the first few times till they gave a bit and then dropped very slightly.
Can't decide what to do with the Regents, my sister is contemplating starting showing again in which case she'll probably need to borrow them!

sell the ones that are too big on ebay, then you can get more! Yay!
