Great boots
These were Christmas present for my 12 year old granddaughter, along with riding lessons. She wears size 6 1/2, and the size 7 was perfect. Compared to regular boots she says they are heavy, but comfortable. The leather is nice and I think once they are broken in they will be even more comfortable. She likes them. Recommended.

These are leather and for the price cannot beat them.
As all boots are when you first put them on they are stiff on the tops. That's my dislike. But I was so pleasantly surprised at the quality on these boots and zippers! Even when you spend 4 times as much the quality is here.

Can't wait to break them in
I work with horses up to 12 hours a day, so comfort and durability are both a must. I own a horse rescue, so all my money goes to saving horses, not my personal fashion.I had a hard time finding boots in this price range made with genuine leather, but the Shires boots met that requirement. Well made, attractive and reasonably comfortable, though a couple of tweaks were required.I don't know if my feet have grown or if these run a tad small, but I had to use stretchers the first few days to give my toes room to breathe. I just popped the stretchers in when I removed them, while they were still warm and damp, and the toe area stretched just enough to ease the pressure on my toes.I also found the leather stiff in the back, so bandaids are a must the first several uses.Because the boot is so well made, I'm confident they'll fit like slippers by the time I break them in.If you're looking for a sturdy, real leather boot that doesn't compromise on style, you'll have a tough time finding a better value than the Shires Moretta Clio paddock boot!

Good fit, quality materiaks
The fit was excellent and the leather was of a good quality. The dome is durable and grippy. I like them, I have 50 plus years experience in riding!
