In an emergency a few weeks ago, I had to buy new johd boots. My local shop only had MH Stirling boots in my size in the bright oxblood colour. Unfortunately my last pair were black so my gaiters are too.

I will either have to buy new johd boots or new gaiters as it looks ridiculous!! What is the official colour of those boots, and do they do gaiters? I have very skinny legs and the MH long boots I have tried on have been too wide. I like fairly plain leather ones with dressage tops.

My current gaiters are just treadstone I think but they fit me well.

Can anyone suggest suitable gaiters to go with them? Apparently ariat only do the darker brown now.
 
MH do the matching ones , I own a pair

Tuffa do leather gaiters in Oxblood, but whether it is the same shade or not as yours...

I can't tell you what they're like, I've had 2 pairs sent to me, both have not been of merchantable quality, mismatching colourwise, scratched like a cat's got at them, so I'm hoping the 3rd pair which are going to be checked by the distributor before they reach the tack shop I'm getting them from will actually be fit for purpose.

The black Tuffa ones I have are really nice and were bought without any complications whatsoever.
