No ride today

Sadly, our mustang ride got cancelled, so no photos or video yet. We've rescheduled for a future date, but I have to say I was really looking forward to getting out there, even in the rain.

So here is a topic of discussion for those of you reading this blog: what kind of riding boots/shoes do you find work best for you and why? Have you found the brand and style that has the right mix of comfort, warmth, and support? A heel that's just the right height and a tread that lets you slide out of the stirrup when needed but keeps you from sliding across the paddock in the mud? Leave your thoughts in the comments to this post, and make sure to note whether you ride Western, English, or some other style.

Thanks!

My favorite boots are anything made by Ariat for good foot support (comfort)and ability to hold up well to daily use and abuse.

If you don't ride every day or like riding shoe instead of an actual boot, that is more like an athletic high top shoe, the Ariat Terrain is an excellent choice or if you need waterproof and warmer, the Ariat Telluride is waterproof and thinsulate lined.
