Highlighted Reviews

— Laura

"I had shopped with other dealers and no one had a wide round box for the toes when riding. Roomy and well fitted!"

— Stacia

"I have worn these boots a handful of times while doing light-duty chores (feeding horses and tractor work) and they are separating where the sole is connected to the upper. Very disappointed. I have three other pairs of Dublin boots and have never had this problem, even after years of wear."

Bottom Line

If you can find the right size, these boots are comfortable and functional. However, be prepared to size down significantly and be cautious of potential durability issues.
