[RC] Riding Shoes - mkrumlaw

I have a short wide foot (size 7) and I go back and forth between my 
Saucony running shoes and my Ariat Cobalt Devon Pro's (zips). I really 
like the Sauconys on hot days and when I know I'm going to be getting off 
the horse a lot and running down hills and/or there's a good chance I'm 
going to be on foot in water or deep mud.

Saucony makes at least two different toe boxes for women, one of which is 
wider and more rounded.  A favorite left over from my running days.  They 
currently have a model TR5 (I think) that's more of a trail running shoe 
and is wonderful.

If I'm going to need a heel for those one hour dressage lessons (;-) ) or 
I'm pretty sure I'm going to be in the saddle the whole ride then I 
prefer the Ariat Colbolts.  I think the leather they use for the Cobalts 
is treated and is either water resistant or possibly even water proof.  
At any rate I've had my current pair for over a year and they look 
great.  I also like the zippers...
