Specifications

How to Use

1. Measure your calf at its widest point and the distance from the floor to the back of your knee while wearing your riding socks.
2. Compare both measurements to the size chart and choose Slim for a narrower calf or Regular for a standard calf.
3. Open the rear YKK zip fully, slide your foot in and draw the zip upwards using the zip puller, keeping the fabric clear of the teeth.
4. Secure the concealed zip keeper and check the neoprene cover sits comfortably behind the knee.
5. Fit spurs to the integrated spur rest if required, then check your stirrup tread sits across the ball of the foot on the linear sole pattern.
6. After riding, brush off mud and grit, dry naturally away from direct heat and condition the leather regularly.

FAQ

What is the difference between the Regular and Slim calf fitting?
Slim is cut for a narrower lower leg, while Regular suits a standard calf. Measure the widest point of your calf and compare it with the size chart before ordering, as calf width is the most common reason riding boots are returned.

Do these boots come up true to size?
They are generally bought in your usual shoe size. If you are between sizes or ride in thicker winter socks, take the larger option.

Will the boots soften with wear?
Yes. The leather lining and uppers soften and drop slightly with use, so a close fit at the top of the calf when new is normal.

Can I wear spurs with the Essence boot?
Yes. An integrated spur rest is mounted on the engineered zip protector flap to hold spurs in position.

Are the soles suitable for wet weather?
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.

How should I care for the boots?
Wipe off mud and grit after riding, allow them to dry naturally away from direct heat, condition the leather regularly and keep the zip clear of sand and grit.
