Long Horse Riding Boots
Ideal for dressage and show jumping, a comfortable pair of high-quality long riding boots can add style, finesse, and sophistication to give you that extra edge in competition. From a practical perspective, long riding boots help maintain a consistent leg position and help facilitate better communication of subtle leg aids. Long riding boots fit closely around your ankle – over breeches, jodhpurs, or riding tights – to allow your legs to maintain a close contact with your horse without causing discomfort due to friction from clothing. The close-fitting ankle section also provides enhanced protection for your lower leg.
Riding footwear is a personal preference – some riders like short paddock style boots whereas others prefer the long, knee high riding boot. Ideal for dressage and showjumping, long riding boots add style, finesse and sophistication to give you that winning look in the show ring. From a practical side, long riding boots help maintain a consistent leg position, prevent a break in contact with the flank of the horse and help facilitate communication of subtle leg aids. Unlike chaps which sit over short boots, long riding boots fit closely around the ankle and thigh over breeches to allow your legs to maintain a close contact with your horse without rubbing from your clothing and protecting the lower leg.
It is important to remember that the life of your long riding boots depends largely on how you look after them! Whether they are leather, PVC, or suede, it is important that you take care of long riding boots, should you wish to enjoy them for years to come. Therefore, we recommend that when your boots get wet at the yard or from riding in the rain, you dry them thoroughly (please do not place your boots on or near a radiator or heat source, however, as this can cause them to crack), and clean all mud or debris from them, before treating them with the appropriate leather, PVC, or suede care products. Tall Riding for example are best left to dry naturally, firstly make sure you clean any mud and dirt from the surface of your boots as if this is left it can eat away and cause deterioration of the leather, then once dried ensure your leather is treated regularly with the appropriate leather oil.
When storing your boots between riding sessions it is recommended to keep the boots upright with a boot tree to ensure they maintain their shape.
