Tall Riding Boots

Long Riding Boots

Long riding boots are a popular choice for many horse riders, both for everyday riding and for competitions. Long leather riding boots can assist in improving your position, give grip and support in the stirrup, as well as offer protection to your lower leg. When correctly fitted they give an elegant look. These smart, well-fitting tall boots complete the look of both an everyday and competition outfit.

• How do I best find my fit in a tall boot? 

  • Sit in a chair with your knee bent 90 degrees to the floor. Wear the breeches and socks which you will mostly wear with your new boots. Measure your foot for the shoe size. Measure from the floor to the crease of the knee for the height. Measure the widest part of the calf to get the correct calf width size.

• Are long boots better for horse riding? 

  • Long boots are often thought to provide better protection when riding - they certainly help prevent chafing from the stirrup leathers and encourage a better leg position by keeping the feet and ankles firmly in place. However a set of paddock boots and a pair of chaps will provide the same and are often preferred in hotter weather. Do always ensure your footwear has a good heel so that it can prevent the foot from sliding through the stirrup.
