Mountain Horse RICHMOND HIGH RIDER

[Parkranger]

anyone got a pair?

I've just ordered some Ariat Grasmere's for the yard (FINALLY they've brought them out in wide fitting) and want some nice show boots. I'll never get into Ariats as I have a really wide calf but wondered if they have give once you break them in?

I had the High Caliber which were the pre-cursor of the Richmond and they are lovely! As I've lost loads of weight sadly they are now too big (but I've bought the Ariat Bromonts instead!)

NB, there is stretch in the Ariats but it's stretch leather and not elactic therefore they don't give very much at all.

Ive got 2 pairs and love them. The first pair I got in regular width because I wanted them close fitting and worried a wide may stretch too much and they were a bit tight but soon give. The next pair I got in wide as these were for best and I wanted more leather showing and less elastic if you know what I mean

. These feel a bit roomy. My calves are about 16 inches and the ariats were a bit of a struggle.
Ive had my first pair about 3 yrs now and wear them daily to ride in. They are so comfy.
