Leather care
Remove mud as soon as you finish riding, before it dries: dry mud pulls the oils from the leather when it flakes off. Clean with a damp cloth and, from time to time, apply a specific leather conditioning product.
Let them dry away from radiators and direct sunlight: dry heat cracks the leather. Store them upright with boot trees or shapers to prevent the shaft from sagging.
How to get the right size
A tall riding boot is not chosen solely by foot size. Three measurements are needed, which is exactly what prevents most returns:
- Foot length, from toe to heel while standing.
- Height, from the ground to the hollow behind the knee.
- Calf circumference, at its widest point.
Measure yourself wearing riding breeches, not jeans or bare legs: the difference can be several centimeters and is the most common cause of a boot not closing. Do it in the afternoon, as feet and calves swell during the day.
Sizes for this model: 33 - UK 1, 34 - UK 2, 35 - UK 3, 36 - UK 3.5, 37 - UK 4.
This model is also sold by height size: JS (37cm), JM (38.5cm), JT (40cm). Choose based on your leg measurement, not your foot size.
This model is also sold by calf size: XS (27cm), S (28.5cm), M (30cm), L (31.5cm). Choose based on your leg measurement, not your foot size.
Several brands manufacture the same model in different shaft widths as separate references. If the calf circumference is too tight, look for the wide version before going up in foot size.
Leather stretches slightly in circumference with use, and the shaft drops a few millimeters when the ankle creases form, but the foot length does not stretch: do not compensate for a short size hoping it will stretch. If you are between two sizes, choose the larger one.
Frequently asked questions
Why do riding boots have a heel?
It is a safety measure: the heel prevents the foot from sliding and passing through the stirrup, which is what could cause a rider to become stuck in the event of a fall.
Do they stretch?
The leather stretches slightly in calf circumference with use, and the shaft drops a few millimeters as the ankle creases form. They do not stretch in foot length, so do not compensate for a short size hoping they will stretch.
How long do they take to break in?
It depends on the leather and usage, but it is best to keep the first sessions short. A new boot will feel tight at the instep and behind the knee until the creases form.
