Jodhpur Boots for Men, Women & Children
Jodhpur boots - the most versatile, beginner friendly boot any equestrian could purchase. Unlike long riding boots, jodhpurs are first and foremost shorter. Created in the 19th century, jodhpur boots were originally used by polo players for convenience purposes. These boots are easier to take on and off, which is also what makes them more convenient when you need to switch boots for working in the yard. The name came from the jodhpur trousers, or Jodhpurs, with which the jodhpur boot is typically worn with. Jodhpur boots are also a more affordable option to long riding boots.
Our team at Discount Equestrian has sourced the best jodhpur boots for men, women, and children. We have a collection ranging from sturdy paddock boots lined with fleece to brown jodhpur boots made for showing. The Tuffa Rodeo boots for example are a sturdy pair with an interesting lace panel incorporated in the design. For show-worthy yet affordable jodhpur boots, take a look at the shiny black Premier Equine Acento boots made from synthetic leather. The Brogini Bolzano Yard boots are a sturdy-looking pair for yard work which are also lined with fleece for maximum comfort.
Contrasting Paddock Boots and Jodphur Boots
The names Paddock Boots and Jodhpur boots or somewhat interchangeable but technically Jodphur boots and Paddock Boots have some differences. Paddock Boots were originally designed more for yard work, as they have a thicker sole, usually rubber these days, with perhaps additional grip – they are a little more substantial. Paddock boots tend to have a thicker sole, but they also have a better grip to help with muddy terrain. They usually have a zip at the front or rear and perhaps elasticated lases up the front which are more for show than performing a function. Jodhpur boots on the other handle are usually a little more refined, less bulky, with a typically smooth sole. They are usually a more simple elasticated pull on jodhpur boot with no zip or laces, often called a Chelsea boot. They are more suitable to go with your Showing outfit where a rider will perhaps use jodhpur clips to prevent your Jodhpurs from riding up your leg.
Both types of boots are designed to come a little over the ankle, making them flexible yet supportive. Both have a low heel and are suitable for Horse riding. The reason why jodhpur boots are considered better for riding is because they are made of finer leather and have a thinner sole. Finer leather can allow more feel so that the rider can give more refined aids (cues) to their horse. Typically, short riding boots are worn with half chaps or gaiters. Both are designed to give the illusion of a long riding boot but are often used for comfort purposes (stirrup leathers can leave marks on the rider’s legs due to pinching so can be uncomfortable).
Shopping Short Riding Boots from Top Brands
Choosing the right jodhpur boots for your child or for yourself ultimately comes down to preference. Besides looking at shoe size, it is also important to consider material and build. Do you want a cheap yet affordable shoe that is easy to tread mud with? Or are you looking for a shoe that will make you shine in the ring? Or maybe you just want short riding boots that are comfortable for your child to ride in but won’t break the bank.

We also offer leather options at an affordable price such as the Rhinegold Children’s Classic Leather Jodhpur Boots. When choosing a ladies or men's short riding boots, it comes down to your daily routine. If you do a lot of yard work on a daily basis and are looking for a tough boot on a budget, then a paddock boot like the Brogini Kingham Unisex Pull-on Yard boot will do the job. The Premier Equine Avanti Leather Paddock boot is great for those who want something that is practical yet good-looking for the competitions.
