Re: [RC] Endurance riding shoes - Barbara McCrary

I still like my Ariat Performers the best.  The soles do not hang up in the
stirrups, and although they are not the world's more comfy hiking boots, I
have still managed to hike quite a distance in them while leading my horse
down a steep hill or whatever.  Another reason I like them is the firm sole,
which saves my feet from becoming numb.

Ariat Terrains looked and sounded good to me, but even with my wide feet,
they were so wide they were sloppy and they seemed to hang up in the
stirrups.  I've come off twice in about a year and each time my memory is
of having to kick my boot out of the stirrup when I realized that gravity
(and a huge spook) had got the better of me.  I'm not going to ride in
them
again.

Ariat Terrains are also great.  Available at most tack stores and thru
catalogs.  I also wear New Balance walking shoes.  I have to be careful
wearing them with one of my saddles because they get caught in the
stirrup.  Higher boots such as the Terrains are safer.  Some people
believe in wearing shoes/boots that will come off if they do get caught
while you're disconnecting from your horse unintentionally.

Dry ones. :-) Actually, I tried some Salomons & Tevas for a magazine
and
both were nice waterproof tennis shoes. An upper end outfitter type
store
has them.  I just as often wear New Balance running shoes because
they're
nice & wide.
