I am short and skinny but I have long legs, and long boots that I've tried are tall enough are too wide! I had a pair of Tuffa gaiters which were nice but as they were narrow enough, they were a bit too short! Where can I get a pair of long boots/gaiters that will fit and that aren't too expensive?

Thanks

I have made to measure Konigs, they have brought out a cheaper range may be worth looking at, or any made to measure boot? Christmas is coming!
I think boots are an investment if you look after them.
 
Hi

I'm quite tall and slim. I dont particularly like long boots but being forced to get some for shows next year

As I find them uncomfortable to ride in and only will be using them for shows I don't want to spend too much. But I have some Treadstone long boots on order from my local tack shop. The junior ones look much nicer in my opinion to the adult ones and so I'm quite lucky that the Junior boots go up to a size 6. They also come in narrow, standard and wide fittings. But they are the right length for me and actually fit my calf! The other advantage to the junior boots is that they are much cheaper at £70ish. Hope I have been able to help a little.
 
Most long boots are too wide on me. The only ones I've got that fit properly are my Cavallos. The cheapo synthetic (and I really do mean cheap!) ones I bought from Robinsons years ago fit quite well too tbh.

HTH
 
Try tredstep and sergio grasso gaiters they come in a huge range of sizes and last really well. Try 24 tack and DH have a sale on which might include them too

Ariats. I have Ariat long boots, and they come in tall/slim fittings. My feet are also very narrow, and I find that Ariats are just about the only ready-made boots that won't just fall off my feet. UK tack shops tend not to carry them (the tall/slim ones) though, so you may have to have them ordered in specially.
