FAQs
How do I determine the correct size for my child?
Measure your child's calf circumference at its widest point and their leg height from the floor to the back of the knee. Compare these measurements to the LeMieux sizing chart provided. It's also recommended to try them on if possible, ensuring a snug but comfortable fit.
Can these boots be worn for everyday riding as well as competitions?
Yes, the LeMieux Junior Field Riding Boots are designed for both performance and comfort, making them suitable for regular training sessions, schooling, and competition use.
How long does the leather typically take to break in?
The break-in period can vary for each individual. Most riders find the boots become more comfortable after a few rides as the leather molds to their foot and leg shape. Wearing them for short periods initially can speed up this process.
What is the recommended way to clean mud off the boots?
After each ride, wipe the boots with a damp cloth to remove fresh mud. For dried-on mud, use a soft brush and then a damp cloth. Avoid using harsh chemicals or soaking the boots.
Are the spurs included with the boots?
No, the spurs are not included with the boots. The boots feature an integrated spur rest designed to accommodate standard equestrian spurs, which must be purchased separately.
What is the warranty period for these boots?
Please refer to the LeMieux warranty information specific to your region or retailer for details on the warranty period and coverage.
Can I use these boots in very cold or wet weather?
These boots are designed for general equestrian use and offer all-weather grip. However, they are not waterproof and may not provide adequate insulation for extreme cold. For very wet conditions, consider waterproof over-boots.
Troubleshooting
Zipper is stiff or difficult to move
Ensure the zip keeper and surrounding material are clear of debris. Apply a small amount of zipper lubricant or beeswax to the teeth of the zipper and try again.
Boots feel too tight around the calf
The elastic calf gussets are designed to stretch slightly. Ensure the YKK zip is fully open before attempting to put them on. If still too tight, consider a size up or a different model.
Foot discomfort or pressure points
The ergonomic footbed requires a short break-in period. Ensure the correct size has been selected. Wearing them for short durations initially can help the footbed conform to the shape of the foot.
Traction seems reduced on wet surfaces
While the X-Grip sole offers excellent traction, extreme wet conditions can challenge any sole. Ensure the sole is clean and free of mud or debris for optimal performance.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: These boots are designed for immediate use upon purchase. Ensure you select the correct size by referring to the sizing chart and measuring your child's leg accurately. The elastic calf gussets and ankle lacing offer a flexible fit, but a proper initial fit is essential.
Compatibility: The integrated spur rest is designed to accommodate standard equestrian spurs. The X-Grip sole is compatible with most common stirrup designs.
Care: To maintain the quality and longevity of the leather, regular cleaning and conditioning are recommended.
- Cleaning: Wipe the boots with a damp cloth after each use to remove dirt and mud. For deeper cleaning, use a specialized leather cleaner.
- Conditioning: Apply a leather conditioner periodically to keep the material supple and prevent cracking.
- Drying: If the boots become wet, allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources. Stuffing them with newspaper can help absorb moisture and retain shape.
- Storage: Store the boots in a cool, dry place, ideally in a boot bag to protect them from dust and damage.
