I’m finally bringing my five year old back into work and I’m so excited! I started her last year and she’s been off work for months now.

I was an idiot with my previous pair of boots and sun water damage destroyed them to the point where you can’t even fit a foot in anymore. They’re awkwardly pointing upwards and are cracked and rock-stiff all through. I’m looking into getting a new pair so that I don’t have to ride stirrup-less in my giant-ass paddock boots for the rest of my life, LMAO.

What are your favourite (hopefully affordable) boots and how do you keep them in good condition over time? I’d love for recs!

(Pic of the old ones in the comments. I know, it’s a tragedy. I’m not sure how I managed that. I’m just really talented when it comes to ruining my tack I guess 😭)
