Womens Jodhpur Boots

Most of the range is fully waterproof, built around a Wil-Tex® membrane that's sealed at the zip or gusset for all-round weather protection: the Kentucky Storm, Idaho Storm, Ottawa Storm, Chatsworth Storm and Blair Storm all fall into this group. If you're mucking out, hacking in the rain or standing around a wet yard for long stretches, one of these will keep your feet dry.

The Idaho Jodhpur Boots and Bramham Zip Jodhpur Boots aren't waterproof. Both use a breathable leather lining instead, which suits milder weather, indoor school work, or anyone who finds fully sealed boots too warm for regular use.

The Kentucky Storm and Blair Storm both use a full lace system, so you can adjust the fit right down the ankle and instep rather than relying on a fixed zip. The Bramham adds twin elasticated side panels alongside its laces for extra give. The Chatsworth uses an adjustable zip gusset rather than laces, which some riders with a higher instep find easier to get on. If you've struggled with standard-fit boots before, start with one of these four.

If you're not after waterproofing, the Idaho Jodhpur Boots are our most popular everyday pair, with a simple front zip, breathable leather lining and Cambrella® insole for all-year comfort. The Bramham Zip Jodhpur Boots offer a similar everyday fit with the addition of front laces for a more secure hold. Both are lighter and less bulky than the Storm waterproof models, which suits riders who want a boot for the school as well as short hacks.

• Warmest: Ottawa Storm Waterproof Short Boots, lined throughout with genuine sheep wool and a removable sheep wool insole — the pick for cold, wet winter yards.
• Cushioned support: Chatsworth Storm and Blair Storm both use a gel or memory-foam insole for extra shock absorption on longer days.
• Breathable everyday wear: Idaho and Bramham use leather linings that suit all-year use without the warmth of a wool lining.

Jodhpur boots should sit snugly around the ankle without pinching, with the collar padding sitting comfortably against your leg rather than digging in. If you have a higher instep, the Chatsworth's adjustable zip gusset or a lace-up style such as the Kentucky, Blair or Bramham will generally be easier to get on than a plain side-zip boot. Wear the socks you'd normally ride in when trying boots on, and remember most models include a removable insole, so there's a little extra room if you need it.

No. The Kentucky Storm, Idaho Storm, Ottawa Storm, Chatsworth Storm and Blair Storm are all fully waterproof with a Wil-Tex® membrane. The Idaho Jodhpur Boots and Bramham Zip Jodhpur Boots are not waterproof and use a breathable leather lining instead.

The Kentucky Storm and Blair Storm use a full adjustable lace system, and the Bramham Zip adds elasticated side panels for extra stretch. The Chatsworth's adjustable zip gusset is also worth trying if you find fixed side-zip boots too tight.

They share the same fit, front zip and Cambrella® insole. The difference is weatherproofing: the Idaho Storm has a Wil-Tex® waterproof lining for wet conditions, while the standard Idaho uses a breathable leather lining that suits drier, everyday riding.

Yes. All the boots in this range have a supportive shank and cushioned insole for standing and walking as well as riding. The Ottawa Storm's sheep wool lining and Dual Grip outsole make it a particularly good option for mucking out and general yard work in cold, wet conditions.

They should feel snug but not tight, with the padded collar sitting comfortably rather than rubbing. Lace-up styles such as the Kentucky, Blair and Bramham let you fine-tune this more than a fixed side-zip boot.

Yes, the Idaho Jodhpur Boots and Idaho Storm Waterproof Jodhpur Riding Boots both have rear spur rests built in, alongside their reinforced pull tabs and air release valve for shock absorption.

Most do. The Kentucky Storm has the widest choice, in Mocha, Forest, Polished Brown, Polished Black, Grey and Polished Navy. The Idaho Storm comes in Black, Brown and Navy, and the Ottawa Storm, Chatsworth Storm, Blair Storm, Idaho and Bramham are each available in two colourways.
