Winter riding boots

[AandK]

Looking for recommendations for insulated warm winter riding boots. I get really cold feet when hacking in colder weather and thermal socks don’t help, there isn’t much room in my current boots for thicker socks

Looking at Ariat Coniston/Grasmere or Brogini Kendal boots, or any other suggestions, thank you!

Brogini Kendal are great boots I have had them for a while. Got a pair of Conistons for my big birthday. Hoping they are as good as the reports.

I use Ariat insulated Bromonts if I really have to be tidy, otherwise my Grassmeres - if my feet get cold in the latter then it's too damned cold to ride! The Grassmeres can keep me toasty even when its farrier day in the depths of winter.
Not tried Kendals or the Coniston models.

I have just brought some bareback equestrian boots for this winter, really impressed with them

I have bought some Bareback Montana boots, they are so cosy and warm and stayed waterproof this weekend!

I suffer with the cold and the only boots i can use in winter are insulated Ariat grassmere.

Thanks all!

I saw the bareback ones too. Food for thought!

I have Mountain Horse warm lined short lace up boots for winter. I was sold them by an excellent saddler when I started hacking in a very cold January. 2003. She sold me thick wool socks too and thermal socks to wear as well. These boots do however need larger stirrups and half chaps than my everyday Ariats.

I have Coniston Pros and they are super toasty, they're fine for hacking but for anything else I'd choose insulated Bromonts really. But I do prefer structured riding boots really, i normally school in my stiff boots as I like the feeling they give. the Conistons are great for being able to do the yard and be in the fields and just hop on and hack out without needing to change boots though.

Thanks MP. These are the ones I have my eye on, I would use my other boots for schooling, the feet don't seem to suffer as much compared to hacking! The price is a bit but I can't put a price on toasty toes, best get saving...

i got mine on black friday last year, might be worth holding on if you aren't desperate now...

Definitely won't need them for a while, black Friday is a great shout!!
