I bought a pair of these last week, black, medium, fitted really well. Rode in them three times, and by today, the elastic had given up completely, and when we'd finished galloping round a field, I realised they were literally round my ankles..
Took them back today for a refund, and the shop could clearly see where the elastic and stitching had failed, really cheap and nasty. Had a look at the others, and would not touch another pair, they all looked so flimsy. I know you get what you pay for (£17) but i did expect a bit better then this from Dublin.
A, also having to return a pair of K*TY chaps from E.C. - they were sooooo awful i can't begin on them. I have had no luck with that brand either (things break or fall apart, or is it just me ??)
Anyone else had any problems ? i did try to persuade Hubbie that I NEEDED a pair of Ariat ones, but his look told me to exit shop immediately, sit in car, and wait for him patiently while he sorted the refund. Hot damn.
Oh yes, and the "red boots" had gone, and been replaced with the far nicer brown version - I approve of those.
