Waterproof or standard jodhpur boots?
Only the Idaho Storm is genuinely waterproof, thanks to its sealed WilTex membrane and gusseted zip that keep water out in rain and mud. The standard Idaho and the Bramham Zip are made from breathable premium leather that resists light showers, but they are not waterproof. If you ride or work in consistently wet conditions, choose the Idaho Storm.
Finding your fit
The Idaho and Idaho Storm use a cushioned front zip for easy on and off with a snug ankle. The Bramham combines a lace-up front with a side zip and twin elasticated stretch panels, so you can fine-tune the fit and still slip the boot on quickly. All three sit at ankle height, ready to pair with half-chaps or gaiters.
Lining and all-day comfort
Every jodhpur style features a breathable lining and a removable cushioned insole, so they stay comfortable whether you are riding, mucking out or running errands. The air-release valve in the heel of the Idaho styles helps absorb shock through the day.
Outsoles, support and grip
All three boots use a supportive arched shank to reduce foot fatigue and keep your arch supported in and out of the saddle. The Bramham adds a performance-driven outsole with stabilising arch support for extra steadiness on the yard.
Caring for your leather jodhpur boots
Wipe off mud after use and let the leather dry naturally, away from direct heat. Feed the leather regularly with a suitable cream or dubbin to keep it supple and help it shrug off the elements. A removable insole makes airing the boots between wears easy.
Frequently Asked Questions
Are these jodhpur boots waterproof?
Only the Idaho Storm is waterproof, using a sealed WilTex membrane. The standard Idaho and the Bramham are breathable leather boots that handle light showers but are not waterproof.
Can I wear them with half-chaps?
Yes. All of our jodhpur boots sit at ankle height and are designed to pair neatly with half-chaps or gaiters for a long-boot look while riding.
Are they suitable for men and women?
Yes. These jodhpur boots are unisex and available across a broad range of sizes for both men and women.
How should jodhpur boots fit?
They should feel snug around the ankle without pinching, with enough room to wiggle your toes. The Bramham's lace and stretch panels give extra adjustability if you have a higher instep or wider foot.
Do they have spur rests?
Yes. The Idaho and Idaho Storm styles feature rear spur rests, so you can add spurs securely for schooling and competition.
How do I keep them looking their best?
Clean off dirt after use, dry naturally away from heat, and condition the leather regularly. Removing the insole to air between wears will help keep them fresh.
