Horse riding footwear comes in a variety of styles to suit each discipline, as well as for days spent mucking out a stall. Western cowboy boots typically feature an intricate leather design while a standard equestrian boot is sleek and simple. Men's and women's riding boots are meant to be functional and protect the rider’s feet in and out of the saddle. They must be built to withstand wear and tear, all kinds of weather, and long periods of continual use.

When you’re working in a stable, muck boots and rubber boots are designed to stand up to mud, grime, and every kind of dirt associated with horses. Western work boots are even tougher, providing valuable protection for your feet.

Paddock boots are typically associated with English riding disciplines. They’re also known as Jodhpur boots and can be worn by younger riders. These English boots are sturdy enough for working around the stable while also having a more stylish appearance.

There are also socks and boot care accessories specifically designed for riding boots and storing them. Boot socks provide additional protection to legs and feet from the cold or dampness. Boot jacks and boot stretchers help riders break in their boots to make them more comfortable.
