They are super-soft leather, but the leather is thicker than fashion knee-high boots. The fit is more contoured to your calf (tighter up by your knee, more room for your calf, and then back tighter around your ankle), so this design and the substance of the leather would help keep the shaft from falling too much.
You should be fine 
Thank you, Dramapony! Now, to find someplace local to go try them on.
Does anyone know of a Canadian website that has these boots? I’ve tried the obvious Greenhawk and Apple, but no luck.
WOW!!
Just got mine today from Equestrian Collections. They fit like a glove and the leather is gorgeous. The size chart on the Mountain Horse website is exactly to spec, at least for me. They are very comfortable too but so far I’ve only worn them on carpet and hardwood floors. This is a super nice boot for the price. I’m impressed.
Post pictures of them!
I agree post pictures please
I would be happy to but…
How do you post a pic? 
The easiest way it to make a photobucket or webshots account and then give us a link 
You have to have a paid subscription to actually post directly on the website!
Please do hurry up… I think we are all dying to see them!
I tried a pair of these on, they were really soft, like butter, but not so soft where you wouldn’t expect good wear with them, as is sometimes the problem with these types of leathers.
The footbed was comfortable, as was every MH boot I’ve ever had on has been. I would expect them to last awhile. I am saving my pennies for a pair!!
If it wasn’t for the price tag (poor college student here) I’d jet to the tack store to try a pair on. Great to hear people like them!
I want to see pictures so badly!
Shameless bump.

Cavalier Equestrian is the Canadian distributor of MH . You could probably find a dealer through their website:

I ordered mine from Equestrian Collections as well, and I still havent gotten them! How long did yours take to arrive?
Hi Everyone,
Here’s a pic. As you can see they fit like a glove! I’m a 10 slim. To IrishWillow, I received my boots in about 5 days but I live one state over from Equestrian Collections. Virginia to Texas will probably take a bit longer. Did you take advantage of their free shipping offer?

Those look really good!
I’m impressed.
Foot is a little weird looking, but they do look pretty nice.

Hey! No making fun of my size 10 foot! I knew that was going to happen. :winkgrin:
I think the super tapered ankles makes everyone’s feet look weird. I have these boots in a size 6 and the look is the same. Looks fine in the saddle though.
big sigh of relief I ordered a pair today and was keepng my fingers crossed they would look good in your picture. I am really looking forward to getting them, hopefully they don’t take too long coming to Canada
