because I can't afford them, not because I don't want them!

Any suggestions?

I think someone said Ariat do a warm short boot once upon a time which perhaps I might just about be able to stretch to.

Or if not who else does a warm boot you can ride in?
 
I can thoroughly recommend 'Arizona' long leather boots from ebay, some are fur lined others with a thinner lining which I have. Just about to order another pair in black as mine are brown. They are comfy and cosy and at 59.99, good value for money.
 
Thanks Bobbly :)

that is much more like what I want to spend given that everything I use every day gets absolutely hashed due to lack of care :o
 
Ariat Brossards are brilliant, however Ariat have stopped making them - they used to retail around £100 - £120, I love mine, wear them with my old warm half chaps much of the time at the yard, very rarely have I ever had cold feet in them & just wear 1 pair of socks most of the time :)

Ariat have replaced them with the Bancroft (come sin an insulated version & std I think) - looks the same as the Brossards, but is more pricey. Not needed to get some yet as mine havent quite died, but are on their way out after 3 hard winters and are cracking on the ball of the foot part of the uppers :(
 
I have Toggi Calgary and they seem to have survived remarkably long, lol. I generally kill 3 pairs of boots a year as a minimum, but the Calgary are on their second winter, they don't look like new any more, but are still waterproof and warm.
 
Not sure if you're looking for a smart pair. If not, then my daughter has a pair of Toggi Canyons which were £80.00, she rides in them and says they are lovely and warm.
 
I have also got some Kinpurnie riding boots from Derby House - several styles, mine are brown, they are leather and warm fleece lining - a bargain at around £65!!!! Heavily discounted. Mine are quite long and slim fitting, so they fit me fine - I'm 5'8".
 
I find most winter riding boots are very warm on the legs - lots of fur / fleece there - but it's my toes that get really cold. (think I've inherited poor circulation). I always seem to end up with freezing feet & roasting legs. Can anyone point me in the direction of warm feet not legs?
