    I wear my ariat pro babys to do everything. . .

    sigh, will have to get english boots to show english though.

    I think its equally as hard as english.

    i worked at a hunter/jumper farm last summer and i wore my ranch boots everyday.

    western isn’t harder than english riding, its just different.

    nothing wrong with it, you’d just need to find boots with a skinny toe, otherwise it may not fit in your stirrup! haha

    Most western boots you will find are not much different than english boots as far as their functionality for riding. Western riding boots on the other hand are traditionally a tall heel (3-4 inch heel) built for riding with a wide boot jacket so that if for some reason you blow your stirrup you foot will come out easily.

    To learn to ride western is no different that learning to ride english. They both have little nuances that is unique to the style. Although western riding is based around working in the saddle all day (there is a reason its called western. . . as in cowboy’s working cattle) so your set in the saddle is a more relaxed position.

    Many people confuse trail riding with western. This is not true. Western events are based on work that still happens on working cattle ranches.
