Horse Riding Boots – Long, Leather & Tall Styles for Every Rider

Horse riding boots are a staple for any rider, offering essential protection, comfort, and style in the saddle. Whether you're hacking out, training at home, or competing at a high level, the right pair of long riding boots can enhance your performance while keeping your lower leg secure and supported.

From classic ladies riding boots to refined and durable men’s riding boots, our collection includes styles to suit every discipline and riding preference. Whether you're drawn to sleek leather riding boots for competition or need practical, riding winter boots for cold-weather comfort, we’ve got you covered.

Why Choose Long Riding Boots?

Long riding boots are a popular choice among UK riders thanks to their close-fitting design and smart, professional look. Worn over breeches or riding tights, these boots offer a snug fit around the ankle and calf, helping you maintain close contact with your horse while riding.

Here are some key benefits:

• Enhanced Leg Support & Grip: Long boots help improve your lower leg position and provide extra grip in the stirrup, contributing to a more secure seat.

• Improved Comfort & Protection: The tall structure shields your leg from pinching stirrup leathers and general knocks or abrasions during yard work or riding.

• A Polished Appearance: A well-fitted pair of tall riding boots creates a sleek, elegant silhouette – perfect for both everyday wear and competitions.

To ensure maximum comfort while wearing long boots, it’s worth investing in a good pair of horse riding socks that offer cushioning, breathability, and a snug fit throughout the day.

Styles to Suit All Disciplines

Our selection of horse riding boots includes:

• Field Boots: Featuring laced fronts at the ankle for enhanced flexibility and comfort, ideal for jumping, eventing, or hunting.

• Dress Boots: Plain-fronted for a more traditional look, popular in dressage and showing.

• Full-Laced Riding Boots: Combining classic elegance with modern ease of wear, full-lace boots are becoming increasingly popular with everyday riders and professionals alike.

Designed for All Riders

Whether you're searching for ladies riding boots with a sleek, contoured fit or expertly crafted men’s riding boots designed for durability and style, we stock a wide range of sizes and finishes to suit every rider. Many boots come with rear or side zips for ease of use, and stretch panels to ensure a tailored, contoured fit.

For colder months, our insulated riding winter boots offer added warmth without compromising on style or function – perfect for winter schooling or long days on the yard.

To keep your leather riding boots looking their best, regular cleaning with a specialist leather cleaner will help maintain their quality and longevity.

Get the Right Fit

A proper fit is essential for comfort and performance. Our measuring guide will walk you through how to measure your foot size, calf width, and boot height (from heel to the back of the knee). Remember, most leather riding boots will drop around 20mm after breaking in, so consider using boot risers during this period.

A well-fitted pair of long boots not only feels better but also helps them last longer making your investment worthwhile.

Prefer a Shorter Style?

For riders who prefer a more adaptable setup, pairing riding chaps with jodhpur boots offers a comfortable and practical alternative to long boots. This combination mimics the look and function of tall riding boots while allowing greater flexibility and ease of movement – ideal for everyday riding, schooling, or working around the yard.
