Paddock Boots

Paddock boots are the choice of footwear for many riders for a multitude of reasons. Unlike tall boots, they’re as easy to fit as a casual shoe, comfortable to wear while riding and working around the barn, easier to care for than tall boots and they’re available at a full range of price points. Paddock boots paired with half chaps offer all the functionality of tall riding boots, often at a fraction of the price. While many pleasure riders choose paddock boots as their only riding footwear, many competitive riders use them for daily training to protect their competition boots from the daily grind. Children under the age of twelve will often wear paddock boots with jodhpur pants; in some competitions, governing rules permit half chaps and paddock boots to be worn by adults. Dover Saddlery offers a wide array of paddock boots for women, men and children in both leather and synthetic materials and in lace and zip styles.
