TuffRider Ladies Starter Front Zip Paddock Boots | Durable, Easy to Clean Water-Resistant Horse Riding Boots for Women

Bought these paddock boots primarily for horseback riding lessons, and they have performed exceptionally well. The sole provides solid grip on the stirrups with zero slipping, making foot placement and control feel very secure. The only "downside" is that, according to my daughter, these are far more comfortable than her genuine leather western-style boots—which cost three times as much. She loves the fit and comfort so much that she now refuses to wear her expensive pair. Great quality, easy to clean, and unbeatable value!

Love these! I've had them for almost 5 months. I ride at least once a week. It's super hot outside and sometimes they get wet when I'm doing chores or rinsing horses and these have held up great, especially for the price.

I purchased these for work as a back up pair to wear for Memorial Services when I need clean/polished boots; for teaching mounted classes when I need to be polished and pristine; and for the times when my regular pair of lace up boots have a malfunction ie. when a shoe lace snaps and I don't have time to deal with it. I was surprised at how durable these boots were considering that they were not nearly as costly as Ariat (the boots purchased for me at work) and from a brand that I'd never heard of. I'm glad I gave them a try. I LOVE this zip up boot because it's just sooo easy, convenient and fast to get in and out of them vs. laces. The one complaint that I have is that the front of the sole on one of the boots separated almost immediately. I wore the boots maybe three times and I noticed that the sole was already coming apart. I bought Shoe Goo and I am going to try to repair it. Otherwise these boots are true to size, decently durable, polish up nicely, the zippers work well and haven't broken, and they are very comfortable. I recommended them to other riders in my profession, as well as to their employers. We tend to go through equipment very quickly so it's important to find quality items that are affordable as well.

Why did you pick this product vs others?: ​Why did you pick this product vs others?:​ Looked up several cheaper pairs of riding boots. I wanted a good quality for the price since this is a hobby for now. These fit perfect and I haven’t had any issues with them! I do wish they were a little wider for those of us with larger ankles/calves, but the elastic does help!

Ordered my normal size and they fit true. The toe box has enough room without feeling roomy. The heel is substantial, which makes a real difference in the stirrup — my foot stays where it should be instead of sliding. No complaints so far.

Terrible quality materials. I wasn't looking for much just a cheap paddock boot that I could ride in occasionally. These boots felt so poorly made i was afraid they were going to fall apart walking around my apartment. I compared them to a pair of other paddock boots I got for a similar price and the difference in quality is obvious. Cheap zippers, fake glued on stitches around sole, thin materials, no reinforcement in the ankles or seams, thin plastic bottoms not rubber the list is long.

Got these for my daughter for horseback riding and she loves them. Comfortable and perfect for wearing at the farm. Clean off easily and work well on stirrups when riding.

The detailing on the front is a little slant in stead of straight across the toe box and it is not evenly so on both sides but this is not noticeable unless you look very closely. The ankle part of the boot is a bit wide and I do not have skinny ankles at all. There is also major creasing across the toes and if left untreated with some sort of leather conditioner it will crack badly. Same goes for the ankle area, it bends and folds a lot. The inside of the boot is very flat and the 'insole' looks very tacky and unfinished as if someone removed the insole and that is the raw under layer. The stitching and detail on the front is NOT by any means waterproof. A little water from the hose ran over my feet and went straight through (very unpleasant) and I would imagine that I'd have soggy feet if I got caught in the rain in these. Unfortunately after wearing these twice a week for one month, I'm already seeing signs that the elastic at the ankles is stretching out and that is very irritating since that area is loose and I wear my pants OVER my boots so it's not like the bulk of my pants is keeping it stretched or anything like that. Over all it appears very cheaply made and I don't see it lasting very long. Thank goodness I got these on sale for Christmas so I think I got what I paid for. If I paid full price, I would have been really really angry. If you get these on sale and need a quick pair of boots, go for it. If you can afford to purchase something a little more expensive, it would probably save you in the long run. I will be looking out for something else. PS don't get excited about how shiny these look in the pictures. I clean and either apply dubbin or saddle soap after every use (I'm afraid it would start cracking on me if I don't) Update: 30/3/19 after about 16 wears, the elastic is pretty much gone. The boots feel loose and uncomfortable while riding as if the zipper has come down. Other than that, with regular treatments they have become more of less waterproof and have not cracked on me yet.

Horrible quality, do not buy! One sole came off completely on the 5th use!!!

I wasn’t expecting a lot for the money but these have to be the best yard boots I have brought, I work as a groom so I’m in them all day and they are so comfortable, lovely padded sole, warm and water/mud prove. Such a good price!

These shoes are really comfortable. Have already used them for 5 rides so far. Really soft and comfortable yet provide supports while riding. Highly recommended to beginner riders.

Bought these boots for my daughter for Christmas and she absolutely loves them! They have been one of the best purchases I’ve made in a long while. The fit is very streamlined and smart looking, and she loves the cushioned instep. She wears them most days for everyday riding and they’re holding up really well. She’s petite so we find it hard to find clothing and footwear that fit well, but these boots fit her like a glove. I bought the size 3. The quality is great for boots this price and will definitely be buying another pair when she grows out if these ones.

My order came quickly. I'm normally a size 5.5 but have wide feet so ordered a 6 and I have to say I am super happy with the fit, very comfy. Look great with my jodhpurs. Although they are not leather, they look well made and sturdy so hope they last.
