How to Use

1. Measure your calf at its widest point and the height from the floor to the back of your knee.
2. Choose the Short or Full calf option that matches your measurements, along with your usual foot size.
3. Open the YKK zip fully, ease your foot in and draw the zip up to the top of the calf.
4. Secure the concealed zip keeper so the puller sits flat under the protector flap.
5. Wear the boots for short sessions at first to allow the leather to soften and settle to your leg.
6. After riding, brush off mud, wipe down and dry naturally away from direct heat, then condition the leather regularly.

FAQ

What is the difference between the Short and Full calf options?
The Short and Full options refer to boot height and calf fit. Short suits riders with a shorter leg length from floor to knee, while Full suits a standard or longer leg. Measure before ordering to avoid choosing a boot that is too tall or too short.

Are these boots suitable for competition?
Yes. The streamlined, elongated profile and quilted front panel give a smart, tidy outline suitable for schooling, clinics and competition, and the integrated spur rest supports correct spur placement.

Can I wear spurs with the Essence boot?
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 specifically to prevent discomfort in that area as the boot flexes with the leg.

How do I care for the leather lining and outer?
Remove mud and sweat after each ride, allow the boots to dry naturally away from direct heat and treat the leather with a suitable conditioner to keep it supple.

Do riding boots stretch with wear?
Leather softens and settles with use, so boots should feel snug rather than loose when new, particularly around the calf where the elastic gussets provide give.
