Flexible Open Front Boots

[Rel6]

I’m looking for some suggestions for open front boots that are flexible and not hard-shell, with a neoprene-type lining (basically just don’t want fleece) that are not Equifits. Looking for something similar to this, but not fleece: https://www.nunnfiner.com/Vincenzo-Open-Front-Jumping-Boots-p/vincenzoboot.htm

Trying to stay under $200, and they would be for the jumper ring (pretty much exclusively for shows). Its proving a little harder than I thought it would!

I have these and really like them. They’re very flexible.

I also have a pair of Equilibrium boots - not the exact ones linked above, but the closed front model. They’re very nice as well, but I love the fancy leather boots for shows.

Thank you @steelerino and @equinelibrium - these both look like great options. I appreciate it!

They also make leather open fronts, if leather would be an option?

[Rel6]

Yes, I’m open to leather as long as its flexible. Some leather open fronts are still very rigid.

My favorites are the Lemieux Capella boots. Leather outer, gel lining, open front. Also, they are gorgeous.

I bought a pair of the Lemieux brushing boots and think that the quality for the price is excellent. I was looking at some white open front for showing because I like these so much

@Bristol_Bay and @onlyTBmares those also look like what I’m looking for - thank you. How flexible are they/is the leather?

@TXnGA, I prefer no buckles but those are definitely nice looking boots!

I just bought and rode using Gatusos, and while I had a wet horse, he had dry legs. They are very light, molded, and offer superior protection along with ease of use/cleaning.

@Rel6 the leather part is the stiffness of a lightly broken in tall boot. So some structure but pretty flexible

I just bought new front boots, and they are very flexible.

Thanks all! I’m going to give the Capella boots a try. I like the look and the price point. I do like the Gatusos and Airlights as well, and may look into them for schooling boots at some point.
