Where I live it doesn’t get too cold. You just need something that will protect your toes and cover your ankles. I like to have boots that go at least halfway up my calf, so in combo with my jeans or breeches, they are protected from a odd branch when riding in the field.

I usually opt for a full riding helmut. If you go western rather than english, they do have some that fit under your hat, but of course, you may have to get a bigger hat

Having the right gear can truly make all the difference. I know when my mom was into horseback riding she had a whole shed full of stuff. Stomphoof's last blog post..Fiddlers Green

Never been on a horse all my life. Only see them from far.

Now that the weather has turned cold, it’s time to get new boots eh?

I have laces on my boots for livestock work, it's the only way I can get them to fit comfortably. Mind you, I'm not actually riding anything. I'm not sure if I'd ever buy boots online, I have a tough enough time as is getting them to fit. Ferox's last blog post..Through the Emergency Room

I worry about laces too. I would put eyelets in a zipper and use that to replace them to avoid replacing boots
