Spotlight Long Boots

Only the Hudson styles in this collection are genuinely waterproof, using a Wil-Tex® membrane and a soft gusset for all-round protection, paired with a Duratread® or PU®/rubber outsole for grip in wet conditions. The Hudson Storm Waterproof Boots and Hudson Mid Boots are the ones to reach for in the yard or on a rainy hack.

The Andalucia, Kentucky and Milan boots are built for comfort and support rather than weatherproofing, so they're best suited to dry yards, hacking in fair weather or smarter occasions rather than standing water. If you need a fully waterproof long boot, browse our wider Waterproof Boots range.

If you're between calf sizes or simply prefer more room, the Andalucia Boots offer up to 3.5cm of adjustment through a full leg lace system, while the Hudson Storm Waterproof Boots come in a dedicated Wide Calf fit alongside Standard. The Kentucky Long Riding Boots use adjustable laces that flex from standard through to wide, making them a versatile choice if your calf shape varies day to day.

The Milan Long Dress Riding Boots are cut closer through the leg with a 2cm rear stretch gusset for a smarter, more tailored dressage-style fit. The Hudson Mid Boots and Hudson Ankle Boots are also built in a Standard Fit if you don't need the extra width of the Wide Calf options.

• The Hudson Storm and Hudson Mid boots use a sheep wool insole with Therma-tex moisture-wicking lining, ideal for long days outdoors.
• The Hudson Ankle Boots use an X-Comfort® memory foam insole for extra cushioning underfoot.
• The Andalucia Boots pair a sheepskin insole with Therma-tex lining and a gel heel insert for shock absorption.
• The Kentucky boots have a removable comfort moulded insole, so you can replace it as it wears.
• The Milan boots are fully leather-lined for breathability, with a removable gel insole.

A well-fitted long boot should sit snugly against the calf without gaping or pinching, with enough room in the foot for a normal riding sock. If you're between sizes or unsure of your calf width, choose a model with an adjustable lace or gusset - such as the Andalucia or Kentucky boots - so you can fine-tune the fit at home.

Only the Hudson styles are genuinely waterproof, using a Wil-Tex® membrane. The Hudson Storm Waterproof Boots and Hudson Mid Boots are both fully waterproof, as are the Hudson Ankle Boots. The Andalucia, Kentucky and Milan boots do not have a waterproof membrane, so they're better suited to dry conditions.

The Andalucia Boots offer up to 3.5cm of lace adjustment, the Hudson Storm Waterproof Boots come in a dedicated Wide Calf fit, and the Kentucky Long Riding Boots use adjustable laces that stretch from standard to wide.

The Milan Long Dress Riding Boots have the closest, smartest cut with only 2cm of stretch adjustment, making them the best fit for a slimmer calf. The Hudson Mid and Hudson Ankle Boots are also Standard Fit only.

Both are non-waterproof riding boots with adjustable calf fitting, but the Andalucia uses a full leg lace system with up to 3.5cm of adjustment and a sheepskin insole, while the Kentucky relies on adjustable laces suited to standard through wide calves with a removable moulded insole. Neither has a waterproof membrane, so both are best kept for dry riding.

Yes. The Milan Long Dress Riding Boots have a smarter, dressier cut that works well beyond the yard, and the waterproof Hudson styles are equally at home on a country walk or dog walking in wet weather. For more everyday and riding options, see our full Riding Boots range.

No - the Milan Long Dress Riding Boots are reduced as part of a clearance while stock lasts, not because of any fault. It's worth double-checking the size guide before ordering, as availability is limited across sizes.
