penpen Posted March 8, 2009 Report Share Posted March 8, 2009 (edited) got these at savers for $12, wash and wore them today and are nice and comfy to walk in, hopefully they work but if they dont they're still cool boots they have a zipper on the inner leg side but theres a small flap above it so you kinda cant see it, i know they should have the elastic thing but the shin part covers it on my armo---------- got the paint/dye just wanna know if these are acceptable since i cant really justify spending $80 on caboots right now Edited January 14, 2022 by gmrhodes13 link not working removed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daetrin[Admin] Posted March 8, 2009 Report Share Posted March 8, 2009 Alas not due to no "U" shape of elastic. Still, for $12 they look like great all around shoes to wear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TK-1287 Posted March 8, 2009 Report Share Posted March 8, 2009 (edited) Well for $12, you're not out much. I bought these, they take about 6-8 weeks to arrive after you order them. They are only £25.60 ($36.08) plus shipping, great deal IMO. I ordered mine when they were $45 plus shipping, grab them quick while the Pound Sterling is weak.

TK-8224[501st] Posted March 9, 2009 Report Share Posted March 9, 2009 (edited) You can always cut out the U shape and sew an elastic band there. I swapped my black elastic band for a white one on my shoes, and it's totally doable to do it from scratch as well. Only thing different is that you need to cut the U shape and make holes for the seams as leather can be hard to work on with needles only. --------- Edited January 14, 2022 by gmrhodes13 link not working removed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does not say on their website to US. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrooperTim Posted March 11, 2009 Report Share Posted March 11, 2009 How much was the shipping? Does not say on their website to US. Yeah, I'm really interested in getting these too. I sent an email to them yesterday asking for a quote for shipping to the USA. No reply yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TK-1287 Posted March 11, 2009 Report Share Posted March 11, 2009 Shipping was only like £7 I think. It calculates shipping and all of that junk while you're processing your purchase. Just choose USA and your zip code, and it will give you a final price. I think I only paid $53 for them total. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrooperTim Posted March 11, 2009 Report Share Posted March 11, 2009 Got a reply from them today. They quote me for £15 shipping which is around $21 at the current exchange rate. Did you have to pay any customs or import taxes when it arrived to the US? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hbrika[TK] Posted March 11, 2009 Report Share Posted March 11, 2009 Nice, how are you planning to dye them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JSmails[501st] Posted March 13, 2009 Report Share Posted March 13, 2009 (edited) I just ordered these in a size 13: --------- I think they are the same as TK-1287's. They are based in the US so you don't get killed on shipping. These will be $46 delivered after using the coupon code "NEW" for $5 off. Andy, let us see what/how you turn those white. I will be doing the same thing it looks like. Edited January 14, 2022 by gmrhodes13 link not working removed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TK-1287 Posted March 13, 2009 Report Share Posted March 13, 2009 Those boots look pretty close to what I bought! That site is American too, so they won't take 8 weeks to arrive, haha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely would save on the shipping wait. Maybe their out of stock on certain sizes right now cause I didn't see mine available. I ordered mine from barnstormers yesterday; cost $52. The wait to arrival begins! Yes Andy, please take lots of pics on how you dye those boots, and what brand you used. I'll be doing the same thing also!

JSmails[501st] Posted March 19, 2009 Report Share Posted March 19, 2009 (edited) Well, the Equestrianconnection emailed me today to say that they are out of stock in my size and discontinued. Grrrrrr. How about these. CHEAP! ------- I know they have that weird toe. But would it be enough to keep you from Elite? No zippers, and correct elastic, but just a weird cut to set off the toe. I'd like to know before I buy. I'll keep looking. I would buy the Barnstormers for $52 delivered, but they only go up to a 46. My size 13 Nike says 47.5 on the tongue, so I don't think a 46 would work. EDIT: I found Tuffa boots in the UK. Which of their styles is most correct? --------- Lots of different styles of Jodhpurs there. I just don't know which is the "correct one" to get from someplace. They seem to have my size though. Where oh where did those hi-res boot pictures go? Edited January 14, 2022 by gmrhodes13 link not working removed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks for fixing the link. The ones that you link are the boots I was going to buy for $45 delivered I believe. The item you linked doesn't have my size. (13) I'll keep looking. Off on a tangent..... Does anyone know where to get leather dye to dye the boots? I was stunned when Michael's said they don't have any.
