FAQs
Who are these riding boots designed for?
These boots are designed for young riders ('kids') across all equestrian disciplines, offering both professional features and customizable style.
What is included with the boots?
Each pair includes the riding boots themselves, along with two interchangeable decorative panels: one plain and one sparkle pewter.
How do I clean and care for the leather?
Wipe with a damp cloth for general cleaning. Use a leather cleaner for tougher grime and apply a leather conditioner regularly to maintain suppleness. Always air dry away from heat.
Can I use spurs with these boots?
Yes, the boots feature integrated spur rests on both sides of the heel, making them compatible with standard equestrian spurs.
What makes the sole provide good grip?
The boots feature an X-Grip rubber sole with a specific tread pattern engineered to interact with stirrup footplates, providing reliable non-slip traction in various weather conditions.
How do I change the decorative panels?
The interchangeable panels are designed for easy swapping and attach to a designated area on the boot. Refer to the product for specific attachment details if needed, but they are generally simple to switch out.
Are these boots suitable for all weather conditions?
The X-Grip sole offers reliable traction in all weather. However, like any leather footwear, prolonged exposure to extreme wet conditions may require extra care to prevent damage.
Troubleshooting
Zip is stiff or difficult to move
Ensure the area around the zip is clean and free from debris. Apply a small amount of zipper lubricant or wax to the teeth of the zip and try moving it gently. Check that the leather flap behind the zip is not caught.
Boots feel too tight around the calf
The elasticated calf gussets are designed to provide a close fit. Ensure you have selected the correct boot size. If still uncomfortable, consider if a slightly different size or model might be more suitable. The elastic may relax slightly with wear.
Decorative panel is loose or detached
Re-secure the panel according to its attachment method. Ensure it is fully aligned and fastened correctly before riding.
Traction on the sole seems reduced
Clean the X-Grip sole to remove mud, dirt, or debris that may be interfering with traction. Inspect the tread pattern for excessive wear, which may indicate the need for replacement.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Initial Setup:
Unbox the boots and identify the two interchangeable decorative panels (plain and sparkle pewter).
Select the desired panel and ensure it is securely attached to the designated area on the boot. These panels are designed for easy swapping.
Compatibility:
The integrated spur rests are compatible with standard equestrian spurs.
The design accommodates a range of leg shapes due to the elasticated calf gussets, but proper sizing is crucial for optimal fit.
Care Instructions:
Cleaning: Regularly wipe down the leather exterior with a clean, damp cloth to remove dirt and dust. For tougher grime, use a specialized leather cleaner. Allow the boots to air dry naturally away from direct heat.
Conditioning: Apply a leather conditioner periodically to keep the material supple and prevent cracking. Follow the conditioner manufacturer's instructions.
Storage: Store the boots upright in a cool, dry place. Boot trees can help maintain their shape. Keep the interchangeable panels separate and clean to prevent damage.
