I recently brought a pair of these riding shoes as I've been in need of some. I went looking for a little bit and came across these they looked prefect so i brought them. After i few days of waiting they came and i put them on straight away they were the comfy shoes i ever put on they were snug against my ankle and just felt very solid over all i couldn't wait to get out and try them my first time trying them my feet felt like they were cilpped in and i wasn't slipping the slightest i just went down to the Christchurch adventure park and they couldn't be more better then ever they gave me plenty of grip but when i wanted to i could take my foot off. I'm very happy of this shoe and will definitely be getting again.
