Has any one had any experience or know anything about the Equitector Long Riding Boots? Do they really work with the "Climate Control Technology"?? Are they worth the money? I read up on them before, but I wasn't sure if they are as good as people say.

All opinions welcome

Thanks.
 
I have had my brown ones for 5 years, I had to have the zips replaced last year (cost £40) they are comfortable, don't need a lot of wearing in and seem to last well, I love the fact that they have protection over the toes. I also have a black pair for shows had them a similar amount of time but they only get used about 20 times a year.
 
Hi, I have the long boots for competing and the Chill busters for everyday riding, mucking etc, love them love them love them... The climate control works for me, I used to suffer really bad with chilblains in the winter but since wearing these boots for the last 5 years i haven't had one! You sometimes get a bargain on ebay! I always keep an eye out just in case.. Hope this helps
 
Yes the protection over the toes does give the boots and bonus

. The thing which I am most interested in is the keeping your feet warm in the winter - my feet get cold very quickly

Yes yes yes, get them! I suffer from Raynauds and get really cold in winter- these boots are the only things that keep me warm and are worth their weight in gold to me- otherwise I couldn't come out to the yard. My first pair lasted me 3 or 4 years (would probably have lasted longer if I'd looked after them better), am on my second pair now, they last well and do the job.

chaps89 - That really is fantastic to hear

. They say that you should try out different types of socks to see which will keep your feet the warmest inside the boot. Any suggestions

They are brilliant! I used to suffer really badly from cold feet riding in the winter (so much so that sometimes I would get off at the end of a ride and not know when I had hit the ground - other than my knees jarring - because my feet were so numb with cold!). Not any more, I can truly say I haven't had cold feet no matter how cold it is outside!

I just wear normal socks, but not more than one pair. And you don't need a thick pair of socks either just thin ones
 
0ldmare - That's what happens to me, I go past the feeling really cold to actually not feeling my feet at all. ANd thats interesting about the socks. Thanks

I wear fluffy bed socks becasue they trap air and they keep my feet toasty without them getting sweaty, I wear them all weathers, normally pick them up in primark or peacocks.
