RE: [RC] [RC] Blundstone footwear - Juli JakubI am a newbie, But I have been in the horse world a while. I love my Blunnies...I have the new series and they are great....I hike in them and I ride in them and I wear then to work polished up because my feet never hurt in them! I have worn them to school horses, to breeze racehorses, jumping, trailriding, and pick up games of polo. I also get them from Australia...it is actually cheaper to have them sent overseas from a retailer over there than to buy them in the states!! Go figure! Juli

I needed a pair of shoes that would let me work (with lots of walking) on concrete, without ending up with aching feet and hips.<br>><br>>Turns out that I do not wear a size 10B. Depending on the shoe, I need a 9 or 9.5 EE -- yikes!!<br>><br>>The New Balance walking shoes I got are really comfy, and now I'm wondering how much more comfortable I'd be while riding if I was wearing something wider than my Ariat Terrain's. I'd like to use a shoe with a heel -- not for safety, because I use endurance stirrups with safety cages, but so that I don't destroy the elastic under-the-foot straps on my half-chaps.<br>><br>>I'm thinking that perhaps Blunnie's are the way to go, especially the uni-sex models. Anybody have any recommendations regarding The Original style versus the TPU?<br>><br>>Cindy<br> =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= Ridecamp is a service of Endurance Net, http://www.endurance.net.
