...I have been wearing Mountain Horse boots for years now including the ever popular 'Cheetah' boot.
I have always ridden in a pair of long leather boots and normally the zips have either gone on them or the stitching which is quite frankly damn annoying!
When I bought another horse about 2 years ago I decided to treat myself to a new pair of long leather boots but something which is a bit more durable and hardwearing. I dont know why I never thought of Mountain Horse before! It might be because alot of their boots are quite chunky.
Anyway Mountain Horse hadnt had the Sportive High Rider out for long and I had a look and went into my local saddlers to try them to see what they were like, I was smitten. They were so comortable and fitted really well, I have slim legs and normally I get a gap at the back of the boot but not with these...

Advantages: Reasonably light, quick to erect, roomy, four season. Disadvantages: None
...An outstanding tent for all weathers. We have not yet used it to its full potential. Myself, husband and daughter regularly travel with this tent. We backpack and find it light and easy to transport in our rucksacks. It can be erected within minutes, is extremely stable with the added bonus of no guy ropes! Waterproof and capable of seeing out the worst rain storms. Comfortably roomy with sufficient storage space for rucksacks at the rear. Good sized front vestibule with good ventilation suitable for cooking in when the weather is bad. Too many inside pockets to count! Very good ventilation. Excellent after care service received from Mountain Hardwear after one minor problem of ink on label running when it was packed away wet and staining inner tent. Mountain Hardwear were extremely helpful and replaced the inner tent within...

Advantages: Smart Leather competition boot Disadvantages: They break in easily!
...As a keen horsewoman, last season required some new equine equipment, including new boots for me!
The Mountain Horse Sportive High Rider looked perfect, they were made of supple leather, with a panel of stretch re-inforces material to expand and hug the calf. I used to have problems in finding the width of boots to fit due to my calf muscles. When I do lots of exercise like walking and mountaineering, they grow! I needed a boot which could cope with this!
I did some research, and found they were reasonably affordable and more importantly from a brand that I'd already used and trusted for quality.
They retail between £127-£140 per pair, which I think is very reasonable, especially because the leather quality is very good.
They are zipped boots, doing up at the back, with a tab of velcro at the top to finish the top of the zip...
