LeMieux Brilliance Tall Leather Riding Boots X-Slim

LeMieux Brilliance Tall Riding Boot - X-Slim Calf

The LeMieux Brilliance Riding Boot is a tall full grain leather riding boot with an X-Slim calf fitting, a diamante stone channel topline and a rear YKK zip. It is best for riders with a slimmer lower leg who want one elegant boot for schooling, jumping and competition, with all-day comfort and secure grip in the stirrup.

Built on a 'fit and flex' construction, the boot supports the lower leg while allowing the ankle to move freely, so it works equally well for daily flatwork and long days at a show.

Specifications

How to Use

1. Measure your calf at its widest point while seated with the knee bent, and measure from the floor to the back of the knee for height.
2. Check both measurements against the X-Slim size chart - this width suits a slimmer lower leg.
3. Unzip fully using the zip puller, wear thin riding socks and slide the foot in, guiding the heel down.
4. Close the rear zip from heel to calf and secure the concealed zip keeper at the top.
5. Wear the boots around the house on clean carpet for short sessions to let the leather settle before riding.
6. After riding, wipe clean, dry naturally away from direct heat and condition the leather regularly. Store on boot trees or shapers.

FAQ

Who is the X-Slim calf width for?
The X-Slim fitting is designed for riders with a slimmer lower leg. If your calf measurement falls at the wider end of a size range, a slim or standard width will usually be more comfortable.

Can I wear spurs with these boots?
Yes. An integrated spur rest is mounted on the engineered zip protector flap, giving spurs a defined position on the boot.

Will the boots rub behind the knee?
A neoprene-cushioned cover sits behind the knee to help prevent discomfort in that area, and the rear YKK zip runs up to the top of the calf behind the knee.

Are these boots suitable for all-weather riding?
The X-Grip rubber sole is designed to provide non-slip traction in every weather, with a linear tread pattern that interacts with your stirrup footplate grip for foot security.

Do tall leather boots drop with wear?
Full grain leather softens and settles with use, so a snug fit when new is normal and the boot will mould to your leg over time.

How do I care for the leather?
Wipe clean after each ride, allow to dry naturally away from direct heat and apply a suitable leather conditioner regularly. Boot trees help the leather hold its shape.
