Tell me about it!
It's almost impossible to find slip on steel toe caps in a size 5.

My OH's biggest complaint about horse's isn't the time or the money but that the overall 'effect' isn't quite the same level of sexy as he was led to believe it would be by the adverts.
Apparently he really did think it would be more glamorous, more skintight breeches and less smelly coats, poo stained jogging bottoms and fishing hay out of bras ?

if you’re a pro rider you have a good reason to be high fashion. You’re effortless darling!
Not me trudging around ?

It's all for the "all the gear, no idea" crowd.

I don’t think I’m the demographic they are aiming for- I just can’t bare the GIANT logo on everything- who wants to pay all that money to be a walking advertisement.

Do you find them worth the money? I’ve got a substantial sum (well it needs to be having looked at the prices!) in a voucher for Christmas and was quite disappointed. Such a lot of money for fashion boots (I’m not into fashio)when I love my Ariat‘s or bareback equestrian that I can go to shops,days out,walk the dogs, ride and do jobs in, last well and keep my feet warm -multifunctional, so to me worth the money. Can’t bring myself to order any just yet!

Please can you come to the stables and yell this at me when I walk in, it’s just what I need to hear before I start yelling at the young horses to pack it in and reminding myself the answer is always inside leg to outside rein - I promise to return the favour ?

Hey, the worse I ride the more I think I might as well look good to try and confuse! Stomping around in my match matchy I look the part - just as long as no one actually sees me ride ?

I’ve always fantasised about being one of those people who has a super smart wardrobe for riding. Unfortunately I am too tight to spend a fortune on clothing that inevitably gets covered in horse poo within minutes of me getting to the yard ?.
I dislike Holland Cooper for their weird body shaped models on their website. They look photoshopped. And I don’t agree with their stance on using fur in their collections.
My partner sent me this meme. Pretty accurate ?

They are for work!
The reason I need slip ons is that we go to some pretty stinky places and I take my boots off when I get back in the wagon and drive in soft slip on shoes. It sounds very girly but we live in our wagons during the week and don't want crap in them.

The Holland Cooper advert pretty much encapsulates how I look at the yard.

Apologies for derailing the thread, but how do you get on with bareback equestrian? Look very tempting - how's the sizing and quality?

Gimp suit?? ?
But in all seriousness, why pose like that. Its just not nice. The outfits would look so much nicer (tho not my cup of tea) if shown off in a less provocative way

I love them. I completely abuse riding boots, rarely clean them etc. Bought in August I think and worn almost daily since. Quality is good. Sizing is fine - I’m a seven and ordered a 41 as wanted room for thick socks In the winter. They‘ve been really comfy straight away, no blisters or breaking in.They are waterproof and warm. I’d definitely recommend. Mine were £149 and were in the sale then (think from £169) but they were as low as £109 on Black Friday so may be worth seeing if they have a January sale.
I also bought some of their fashion boots in the sale too- look the same as fairfax and favor ones they are comfortable and well fitting too.

Thank you - I'm cautious about ordering online unseen, so appreciate the insight. Think i might be shopping soon!
