Equi-Sential Seskin Tall Riding Boots for Children
The Equi-Sential Seskin Tall Boot is a fully waterproof synthetic long riding boot designed for child riders. It is best for young riders who need one smart, hard-wearing boot that works for lessons, schooling, hacking and yard duties in all weathers.
The boot combines a breathable cushion lining for comfort with a rippled sole for grip, an elasticated top for a closer fit around growing calves, and rear spur rests for riders schooling with spurs. It is available in black only.

How to Use
- Measure the child's calf at its widest point over the socks and jodhpurs they will ride in, then measure from the floor to just below the back of the knee.
- Compare both measurements to the size chart and size up if the child is between sizes.
- Put the boots on while seated, easing the foot through the leg and pulling the elasticated top into place.
- Check the ankle does not gape and that the top edge does not dig in behind the knee when the leg is bent in riding position.
- Wear them around the yard for a few short sessions to break them in before a long ride or competition.
- After riding, brush off mud, wipe with a damp cloth and dry naturally away from direct heat.
FAQ
Are the Equi-Sential Seskin tall boots waterproof?
Yes. The Seskin Tall Boot is fully waterproof, which makes it suitable for wet schooling sessions, muddy hacks and winter yard duties.
What size should I order for a child between sizes?
Most parents size up. The elasticated top allows extra give around the calf and a slightly larger boot gives growing room, though a thicker riding sock helps if the fit feels roomy at first.
Can spurs be worn with these boots?
Yes. The boots have rear spur rests, so spurs sit in the correct position on the heel when schooling.
What material are the boots made from?
The upper is synthetic, which keeps the boots easy to clean and hard-wearing compared with a traditional leather boot at this level.
How do I measure calf width for tall riding boots?
Ask the child to sit with the knee bent at a right angle, then measure around the widest part of the calf over the socks and breeches they ride in. Wrong calf width is the most common reason tall boots are returned.
How should the boots be cleaned?
Remove mud before it dries, wipe the synthetic upper with a damp cloth and allow the boots to dry naturally away from radiators or direct heat. Do not machine wash or tumble dry.
