Do long rubber riding boots squeak when you ride in a leather saddle?

Question

Do long rubber riding boots squeak when you ride in a leather saddle?

Answer 1

Unfortunately, they do. I had a rubber pair for the longest time, hoping they'd break in and quit squeaking.. but no luck. Eventually, I just got a pair of leather field boots, (but unfortunately, I still squeak on my dressage saddle! The huntseat saddle is quiet though.)

Answer 2

Some do and some don't - my daughter's leather (Mountain horse) boots do it as well.

Answer 3

Not unless you have an insecure leg position in which case a few lunge lessons might help!

Answer 4

Yeahh some do, mine especially. It happens heaps when i rise at the trot. Theres not much you can do to prevent it. grr its annoying.

Answer 5

sometimes... but you're not supposed to ride in rubber boots

Answer 6

i have some now and they dont make a noise whether ur running or walking urself or any gait of speed while riding ur horse..

Answer 7

I have a synthetic saddle and rubber boots and they squeak like h**l, I've ridden in a leather saddle too and they squeaked, but i know a lot of people whose boots don't squeak so i think it differs depending on the saddle and boots.

Answer 8

my sister does horse riding and when iv been there i never hear any squeaking (except the horses squeaks)

Answer 9

They only squeak if your legs are moving around, if it happens when you are doing the rising trot try rising properly and not using your stirrups

Answer 10

YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!...

Answer 11

I have had some that did especially at the trot.

Answer 12

hmmm. i guess sometimes it does but i use ankle boots and half-chaps for more grip (it is easer to ride like that) and it doesn't ssqueek

Answer 13

yeah mine do it gets really fustrating :P

Answer 14

I thought so but it turned out I was riding the horse all over the barn which is infested with mice...and i had given the horse special spike-grips on its horseshoes.

Answer 15

I have a pair of long leather riding boots so thats effectively the same thing . . . Mine squeak alot after the saddle has been cleaned or I've polised my boots before a show which is extrememly annoying when show jumping !
