Long Boots I can leave spurs on

[irishcob]

Hi all. Is there such a thing as long leather dressage boots (zipped) that you can leave your spurs on? Fed up of having to unbuckle and rebuckle fiddly straps every time I take them on and off... Lazy I know, but it really bugs me!!

I'm looking for comfy enough for every day, but smart enough for competition. I'd be very grateful for any suggestions whilst I stick my head under the hose after a very sweaty session in the school!! Thanks in advance

It will depend how fitted your boots are - I have very high arches and couldn't leave spurs on my dressage boots as I'd not get my foot out. However a looser fit I can
Also I think probably front zips would be your best option here. Possibly a very expensive choice just to leave spurs on though

Have a look at Portuguese slide on spurs. They don’t have straps just slide on above the boot heel ledge

I do this all the time, I just loosen the buckle one hole and push the spur right down so the zip can get to the bottom. You can get away without tightening them up again if you find it too hard but they do move a little bit.
