Ordering boots online is an awesome way to find exactly what you’re looking for. One of the drawbacks is the risk that they won’t fit. A sure way to reduce the chances of that happening is to be armed and prepared.
So I admit that I have been searching for a pair of gray leather riding boots for quite some time now. A few years to be exact. During that time I ordered countless pairs of boots online (some obviously not gray :-)) just to find that perfect pair. Sadly, I did just as many returns.
I couldn’t understand why a few of the pairs I bought were too tall for my legs. How could I safeguard myself from this happening again I wondered.
Well, as it turns out, you need to know more than your shoe size when ordering tall riding boots online.
