Knee Boots

[teach]

I need a second pair of knee boots as never hack on the roads without them and new pony coming tomorrow!
Struggling to find a leather pair, previously when I’ve tried neoprene they have failed quickly on the fastening.
anyone any recommendations (or leather ones they want to sell?!)

Gibson Saddlery have well made proper leather knee boots called Ascot knee boots for around £42. I have had mine 3 years and pony never leaves the yard without them on and they clean up beautifully. Gibson’s are fast to deliver and if you order tonight you should have them in a couple of days.

Edit to add Just seen they are out of stock

I’ve just bought a pair from Gibson saddlery. They are excellent quality as Lindylouanne said.

I have used the Jeffries Knee Boot HBK26-CNBR for years as they are leather on felt. www.ejeffries.co.uk

I always used the Westropp Knee/Brushing boots as your can do fast work in them.

I saw the Jeffries ones in the sale somewhere a few days ago and can't for the life of me remember where

I always use knee boots (nursing broken knees taught me that lesson) - I like the old style Jefferies ones but not the new ones - I think the Gibson's are better but I cut the suede that extends beyond the thick leather strike pad off for a neater more practical boot. I use my knee boots for everything including jumping and galloping and they have never impeded her leg movement. The neoprene ones are useless and impossible to keep in place even at a walk.
