RE: Shoes



Title: RE: Shoes

He'll want a shoe with a slight heel (for safety - keep foot from hanging up in a stirrup in a fall) or safety cages on the stirrups.  He wants something that he's comfortable in when walking/running.  They should dry out quickly if (WHEN) they get wet.  They should start out a little wide since his foot will swell after many hours in the saddle.  Lastly, they need to easily fit into the stirrups - a safety issue again.

My husband & I both have wider feet.  We <really> like the "Horse Shoes" by Roper.  They are a riding sneaker, well made, ALL leather (even the ankle cuffs) unlike the competitors (where the cordura wore away too quickly).  Price-wise they are quite competitive - base model is around $70, less from some horse catalogs and Sheplers.
