MOUNTAIN HORSE HIGH CALIBER RIDING BOOTS

[Lucy_Ally]

Good? Bad?
Anyone got any, likes and dislikes - problems fitting etc. I have the mountain horse short boots which I love, I want these for competing and for best. Do they have spur rests?

Thankies.

I've just ordered some from Rideaway. I'll let you know how I get on with them. They seem to be the only boots big enough for my chunky calves! I tried a pair on in a shop and they did seem comfy and looked rather natty. I can't remember whether they had a spur rest or not... but there's a bobble of leather at the bottom of the zip which would do the job.

My friend has some and likes them. Apparently it takes ages to get your foot in the stirrup properly, but once in they don't move.

My dad has them, he loves them, but does find them a bit difficult to get on a off sometimes apart from that he loves them

Ive just ordered a pair too from Long Melford Saddlery. They seem the cheapest at £155 including p & p. I tried them on in my local saddlery (naughty I know but much more expensive) and they seem true to size. What I mean is most Mountain Horse seem big, I can get in a size 38 in their short boots but needed the 39 in these. I am usually a 39. Be careful with the length though as they now only stock short/reg (42 cm length) and reg/wide in the UK as apparantly the reg/reg were too long for most so Mountain horse stopped stocking them in the UK. Thankfully Long Melford had a reg/reg (46 cm length)in stock so I fell lucky! Wouldnt mind Im not exactly tall at 5' 7 but the short worried me incase they dropped a little.
Hopefully my will be here tomorrow so I will let you know.
