Shires Moretta Ortona Riding Boots - Black, Standard Height, Milled Cow Leather Dressage Cut

A Dressage-Cut Tall Boot with a Sculpted Fit

Best for: Dressage and flatwork riders looking for a polished milled leather tall boot with a choice of five calf widths.

The Shires Moretta Ortona Riding Boots are made from milled cow leather, a smooth, shape-retaining leather polished to a high sheen. This listing is the standard height boot in black.

A dressage cut top lengthens the look of the leg, and leather-covered UltraFit panels sculpt the calf. Stretch mock laces, a square toe and antiqued metal Moretta badges finish the look, with twin-needle stitching on all seams.

Inside, a moisture-wicking 3D mesh WickAway lining and a supportive ActiveFlex insole are there for long schooling sessions. Underneath, a Moretta shock-absorbing rubber outsole and steel shanks add support, and a YKK zip with a leather zip guard, a security tab and a leather-covered spur rest round it out.
