If you want the shorter ones (Kildare) I am selling my sister's on ebay at the moment! She ended up with two pairs so these have only been worn once - absolute bargain!!!

Thanks, I was looking for the website but could'nt find it.
Heard they are good for wide calves so will be buying.
[/ QUOTE ]Well I have EXTREMELY wide calves and they are a REAL squeeze to get on... (I do have tiny feet though) .... If I don't put them on first thing I have NO chance of getting them on!!!
I would recommend trying them on if your going to invest as it's a lot of money if they don't fit.. TRUST ME!!
They are fab in winter as calves don't swell as much.. but summer riding FORGET IT unless you want cramp!! LOL!!
I tried a pair of these on for the first time and was really pleased! Someone else on here tried a pair and found them big in the calf which worried me as I am average there. But I decided to try a pair anyway and they were great! I tried the green colour which is not as nice as the brown. What I really liked was the comfort of the feet.
Also when I was watching Burghley on TV there was a rider walking the course in Dubarrys - she went right into the water nearly up to the top of the boot so they are clearly very waterproof!
Am selling them furiously to him indoors as "a boot for riding, dog walking and going for walks that will be smarter than wellies and I can wear them down the pub so really they are three pairs of boots so really they are CHEAP". Dubarrys should be paying me!

But not with tiny skinny ones!

Their not that bad!! I have the most stupidist skinny legs and ankles (blame my mother), and although if I wore my dubarry's without jeans/trousers they would look stupid and all gapey - with them is fine!
Piaffe: I totally adore my dubarry's and have seen them as a total investment. I bought mine, after saving up for ages, nearly 2 yrs ago. If I clean them properly
they come up looking brand new - however I tend to just squirt the hose at them!!
I got some at Blenheim this year (early birthday present) and I love them. If possible try them on though as I needed half a size smaller then I usually wear (but at least they do half sizes...)
