Sportive high rider mountain horse boots??

[almrc]

Hi All

Does anyone have these boots? What are they like? I am thinking of getting some posh boots and saw these in the shop today. I want a smart pair for local xc and sj and possibly dressage. I must stress, local shows - as cant afford over £200 for some boots What do you think?

I have been very happy with mine - now on my third pair, previous ones lasted a good few years each and I would buy them again.

I've had mine for years - only used them for shows etc. They are still going strong.

I brought a pair when they first started making them about 9 yrs ago, i think?
Anyway, I kept mine for best, but unfortunately one of the zips has broken. I've been waiting to get it repaired for years, lol. They are still in great nick for their age though, and I WILL get them repaired one day

nice hardwearing boots for the money comfy

Love mine, hard wearing, polish up well, survived five years, including regular hunting. They aren't as "refined" as some more expensive ones... but very comfy.

Love mine very comfy - hate the scs stirrup treads that your meant to have with them tho find them really slippy when you fit them in the grooves( side to side ) I hate the stirrup bar touching the side of my feet (I am a bit odd)
Anyhoo sold the treads on ebay and use normal treads and love the boots.
Mine are 5 yrs old and still look all but new and I don't clean them properly after every use. Only use them for competing tho. Have some of the regular ones for every day which are decidedly more battered and slighly faderd but still great comfy and warm and they are 7 yrs old!

Lovely boots, I've had mine for quite a few years (that means that I can't really remember but its over five!) and used them in most disciplines including hunting. they still look and feel good.
