The First Rider Leather Short Boot with front zip is designed for riders seeking a refined look with convenient entry. Crafted from genuine leather, these boots combine durability with style. The front zip allows quick and secure closure, and the shorter shaft height makes them ideal for use with half-chaps or jodhpurs in school, club or lesson settings. Available in adult sizes 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43 and 45, this boot offers a quality tall-boot alternative at a mid-tier price point.
Usage
Target User: Adult riders using paddock boots or short boots with jodhpurs/half-chaps for schooling, hacking or casual competition.
Application: Worn in place of tall boots when the dress code or discipline permits, offering a smart appearance and leather build.
Method:
Choose your correct EU size (34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43 and 45) based on foot measurements and previous boot fit.
Put on your breeches or jodhpurs, step into the boot, and zip the front closed; ensure the zip tab is secured and the flap sits flat.
Adjust your stirrup leathers so the lower leg sits correctly heel slightly down, instep on tread, boot shaft smooth and unbunched.
After the ride, unzip the boots, brush off dust/mud, condition the leather if needed, and store upright in a cool, dry place.
Frequency:
Suitable for frequent use in schooling, lessons or stable turnout.
Inspect regularly for leather creasing, zip integrity and sole/heel wear; replace if structure or performance is compromised.
Features and Benefits
Genuine leather upper: Offers professional appearance, durability and gradual “break-in” comfort over time.
Front-zip closure: Easy to don and doff, while giving a clean front shaft line and improved fit compared with back zips.
Short/“paddock” boot height: Works well with half-chaps or jodhpurs; gives greater flexibility of leg length, typically more comfortable for some riders.
Adult size range (34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43 and 45): Covers smaller adult feet and offers size consistency for many riders.
Classic, versatile design: Suitable for schooling, lessons, hacking or casual competition settings where full tall boots may not be required.
