FAQs
Are these boots waterproof?
While the leather construction offers natural resistance to light moisture and splashing, they are not fully waterproof and should not be submerged in deep water.
Can I use these for competitive riding?
Yes, the Jodhpur style is suitable for many riding disciplines, though you should check specific competition dress codes if necessary.
How do I choose the right size?
The Mackey Cedar boots use standard UK sizing. If you plan to wear thick equestrian socks, consider if you need a slightly roomier fit.
What is the difference between the leather and cotton versions?
Leather versions provide superior durability and protection, while the cotton versions offer a lighter, more breathable feel for warmer conditions.
How should I store them?
Store them in a cool, dry place. Using a boot tree helps maintain the shape of the leather over time.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel stiff on first use
Leather requires a break-in period. Wear them for short intervals around the house or at the stable to soften the material gradually.
Leather looks dull or dry
Clean the surface thoroughly and apply a high-quality leather conditioning cream to restore moisture and shine.
Sole grip is becoming clogged
Use a stiff-bristled brush to remove dried mud and debris from the tread pattern to restore traction.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Mackey Cedar Boots last, follow these guidelines:
- Break-in Period: Leather boots may feel stiff initially; wear them for short durations to allow the material to mold to your foot shape.
- Cleaning: Wipe away dirt and mud after every use with a damp cloth. Allow them to air dry naturally away from direct heat sources, such as radiators, to prevent the leather from cracking.
- Maintenance: Periodically apply a leather conditioner to keep the material supple and water-resistant.
- Compatibility: Ensure your stirrups are sized correctly for Jodhpur-style boots to maintain safety while riding.
