As with most country boots, there is only one leg length – I’m 5ft 10in (shown modelling in black jeans) and they were by no means too short, but the length and shaped fit of the boot leg looked much more tailored to my mother, who is 5ft 6in (shown modelling the boots in blue jeans). The game has really good graphical content which makes the game come to life and the actual game play is very relaxing indeed as you look after the well being of your horses. The boots come in a variety of leg widths, and the regular width was perfect for me – the size guide for widths is very accurate, so it’s definitely worth checking that before you order. My Horse and Me 2 Game Review: My Horse and Me 2 is a game I never thought I would ever enjoy but after a short while of playing the game I found it to be quite entertaining. On trying them on, they felt a little small in the foot – I normally wear a 41, and at 41 these were slightly snug, so I would probably have sized up.

The Dublin River boots III (an upgrade to the River boots II that also offers a wider colour selection) are a traditional style of country boot, and on first look I was impressed with the chunky sole that seemed as if it would cope with the slippery state of our field gateways at the moment. Country boots are a versatile item for any equestrian – a step up in style from wellies, they can take you from the yard to a dog walk and a pub lunch.
