I actually ride horses 10 to 20 miles every day. I normally wear my Dublin Pinnacle riding boots and I absolutely love them. I wanted a slightly sleeker looking boot to alternate with and chose these Moorlands.These look nice and the foot bed is comfortable in and out of the saddle. The vented/elastic upper calf is useful if your calves are large - allows for a little stretch. Mine aren't, so the boots don't stretch there unless your leg is pushing against the material.There are 2 things I really dislike about these compared to the Dublin boots. First is the fact that these do not have a reinforced inner calf for saddle contact. That means over time, the inner leg will wear out faster than the rest of the boot if you're riding hours per day.Second negative is the sheer stiffness of the boots at the top and ankles. Daily wear for a week left literal bruises behind both knees because there's zero give at the top of the boot. Sitting is painful because the boots dig into your knees. The ankles are the same - so stuff there's almost zero flexibility. Tall boots are stiff, but higher end brands break in within a week. A month later and I'm still waiting on these to mold to my leg shape. Way too long.

I LOVE these boots. I have really wide calves and struggle to find tall boots that fit. These zip up with ease, even over jeans. The leather is supple and these boots are comfortable right out of the box - no rubs or blisters. Certainly too bulky to show in but great for schooling or trail riding. I would not hesitate to buy again.
