WHAT FEATURES SHOULD LONG WINTER RIDING BOOTS HAVE?
Good pair of long winter riding boots protect the tips of the toes from getting cold on the one hand, and on the other hand they allow the ankle to move sufficiently despite being lined. A lined long winter riding boot should therefore not be too thick, so that it does not hinder fine aids. They should also be waterproof or water-repellent so that the feet stay dry in mud and snow.
At Kramer Equestrian you will find thermally insulating and comfortable long winter riding boots that are made of waterproof and dirt-repellent textile outer material or impregnated leather. In our online shop you can buy long thermal riding boots with padded polyester lining or classic long winter riding boots with soft fleece or sheepskin lining. In our shoe & boot care section you will also find everything you need to maintain the water-repellent properties of your long winter riding boots.
WHAT DO I HAVE TO CONSIDER WHEN BUYING LONG WINTER RIDING BOOTS?
When buying your long winter riding boots, you should make sure to buy them 1-2 sizes larger, depending on the style and the thickness of the filling or lining. Especially if you like to wear thick socks in winter, you will need more space in your boots than usual. When buying your long winter riding boots, also consider that you can adjust the shaft individually via laces, drawstrings or Velcro adjustment, which many boot designs allow. This means that you still have room in your boots even if you are wearing winter breeches.
WHICH LONG WINTER RIDING BOOTS WILL KEEP YOU WARM?
Our long winter riding boots are made using different linings. Long winter riding boots with sheepskin lining provide excellent moisture regulation, which keeps feet dry and thus pleasantly warm. If you prefer to go easy on the wallet, you can opt for equally insulating long winter riding boots lined with teddy fleece. These are also ideal for the cold season at the yard.
The long winter riding boot assortment from Kramer Equestrian consists of boots that are fleece lined in the foot as well as in the shaft area and thus keep you pleasantly warm. In this way, you retain sufficient feeling in your feet and legs in icy temperatures so that you can continue to give fine leg aids.
For particularly cold feet, we recommend warm insoles or toe warmers, which you can find in our shoe & boot accessories.
WHICH LONG WINTER RIDING BOOTS ARE SUITABLE FOR CHILDREN?
In our online shop you can buy long winter riding boots for children starting from a shoe size C 8.5. This means that young riders don't have to do without warm feet and legs in winter. Some styles of children's long winter riding boots have a flexible shaft with either elastic inserts or Velcro fasteners along the zip. This allows them to be individually adjusted to the child's leg if they should ever wear thicker breeches or riding socks. The long winter riding boots by Kramer Equestrian for children are lined with teddy fleece and have a waterproof outer material, which makes them perfect for children who want to stay active in the saddle even in winter.
