Re: [RC] Shoes for the Rider - heidi larson

I also ride in the Mtn. Horse High Riders and LOVE them. 
My only complaint is that they don't come in half sizes and
a 9 is really a bit too big for me.  I wear heavier socks
but in the heat it would be nice to not have to do this. 
I'm in the minority in that Ariat's KILL my feet.  I've
tried different styles, the latest being the Springbok and
I could barely walk at a vet check at about 35 miles. I can
walk in them around town, work, etc. but not in the
saddle/stirrups.  Not sure why this is for me, weird foot
maybe.  My last pair of Mtn. Horse boots lasted nearly 4
years and they'll get me through the next few rides until I
can find a deal and replace them.  Ebay seems to be my best
bet.  In winter I wear the Muck Boot Brit Rider and they
are the best as well!

them for anything else.

The ones I ride in are made by Mountain Horse (although
they run to wide
both in foot and in calf, so if that doesn't meet the
description of
your feet they may not be for you).  They have full zip
down the back so
they are easy to get on an off, and they have a gel
insole (which you
can change if you want to).
