Mountain Horse Sportive High Rider Advantages: Comfortable & Durable Disadvantages: None 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 ... ...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! Two years on and I still have the same pair I bought. Allbeit they were a bit worn but I have kept them in great condition ... sweetpea_sweetpea 07.06.2008 · Read full review Ciao members have rated this review on average: very helpful Review of Mountain Horse Sportive High Rider	Quality Style Durability Comfort/Safety Value for Money
indestructible jacket Advantages: tough and waterproof Disadvantages: not very cool ...can buy the wax from barbour outlets and some equestrian shops - it costs about £5 for a tin which will last several years - be warned you do not need to put much wax on the jacket overwaxing will make it sticky. They are good for walking and riding and you can get them in different lengths including the one that goes down to your feet for the real outdoors in all weather person. The only downside to them is that they are not that smart and you ...

Harry hall ladies faro boots great Advantages: comfortable, stylish Disadvantages: leaking water These boots were my best leather riding boots so far. I bought the first pair 4 years ago in Devon and I they lasted me 3 years. I wear them about 4 times a week. They have a nice long leg, stay up and last very well. The tread is not very heavy, good in the stirrup but a bit slippery on wet grass. I had some problems with water leaking in, but it comes in at the back where the zip starts anyway. I recently bought a second pair. They are most comfortable ... molliecollie1 18.11.2009 · Read full review Review of Harry Hall Ladies Faro Boots	Quality Style Durability Comfort/Safety Value for Money
The long and the short of it. Advantages: Nice lining and looked smart. Disadvantages: Lining didn`t last long. Loveson are a brand that make riding boots and it is possible to buy long or short boots made by Loveson depending on the choice of the individual. The boots that I am reviewing today are long rubber boots. They were the first pair that I bought when I first got my horse. The boots that I bought were Loveson Grantham and they are leather look PVC. They had a red lining and removable inner sole. I thought they appeared good quality compared with ... ...the same. I bought loveson short leather jodhpur boots which I was pleased with. There are pros and cons to having short and long boots. What I tend to do now is walk around the yard in my short boots, muck and and then when I ride just put on my chaps with the short boots. I prefer to ride in separate boots and chaps or gaiters as they are less restrictive, easier to put your heel down. I have leather boots and gaiters for shows, they look like ... spottydog2 05.08.2006 · Read full review Ciao members have rated this review on average: very helpful Review of Loveson Boots	Quality Style Durability Comfort/Safety Value for Money
Champion vs Cheap Advantages: Stylish PAS & EN standards Disadvantages: expensive has cheap look-a-likes ...hat and it was the champion ventair riding hat. This hat meets the EN1384 and the PAS 015 standards so this means it is classed as safe and you could wear it at riding schools etc. For £80-100 i wasn't overly impressed as i didnt think it was anything too special and didnt differ from my hat thats 1/2 the price! My hat is a 6 3/4 and the one i borrowed was a 6 7/8 but it was very very tight so if your going to purchase without trying i wouldnt! TRY ... ...apart from the champion it is nearly identical to my less than 1/2 price version. The only thing i did prefer about this hat over mine was the chin strap that was very cushioned and i really liked that. You can adjust the harness at the back of the hat as it is on a drawstring design so it does enable variations between riders. In my personal opinion it is overly priced and think you are paying for the name. I do have a champion jockey helmet so ... hhuk 21.02.2008 · Read full review Ciao members have rated this review on average: helpful Review of Champion Hats	Quality Style Durability Comfort/Safety Value for Money
