Paddock boots recommendations

Postby PaulaO » Sun Oct 08, 2017 12:10 pm

I need new paddock boots. I've worn Ariats forever but am not brand loyal. They don't need to be waterproof. I do need arch support and cushioning around the ball of the foot. And a wider toe box so I think that leaves out Tredsteps. I'm intrigued by the Tonics which have a hefty price tag and I can't find any reviews. I don't have any preference for zip vs. lace.

Mountain Horse might work for you, they are wider but many of the models look a bit bulky. Ariats are still my go to for paddock boots.

I always take out the insoles and put in my own arch supports, so that does not make a difference. Ariats are also my go to boots but i go with lace ups, not zips, they just last longer.

I go with Ariats too. I don't' ride in them. I will say I bought a pair a few months ago and the leather is stiff on them, they do have a nice square toe box, but I'm use to my old Ariat Crowne paddocks that were super comfy. Hopefully, they will break-in soon.
