Elegance Meets Endurance in the Arena

Finding a tall boot that looks like a custom fit without the custom price tag is a challenge every rider knows. The Moretta Lanciano Leather Riding Boots by Shires bridge that gap, offering a sleek, professional silhouette that feels as good as it looks from the moment you zip them up. Whether you're schooling at home or heading into the show ring, these boots provide the support and polish you need to perform your best.

Crafted with a thoughtful dual-leather design, these boots prioritize both durability and flexibility. From the moisture-wicking lining to the shock-absorbing sole, every detail is engineered to keep you comfortable through long days at the barn, from our barn to yours.

Why We Love the Moretta Lanciano

• Custom-Like Contoured Fit. The soft stretch leather outer panel molds to your leg, while the hard-wearing inner calf provides the grip and durability needed for consistent contact with the saddle.
• Superior Arch Support. An integrated steel shank and shock-absorbing rubber outsole reduce foot fatigue, making these boots perfect for riders who spend hours in the stirrups.
• Professional Dressage Silhouette. The high-profile dressage cut elongates the leg, providing a clean, elegant look that stands out in the competition arena.
• All-Day Comfort. A moisture-wicking lining keeps your feet dry and cool, ensuring you stay focused on your ride rather than your gear.
• Secure and Reliable Closure. Featuring YKK zippers and rear stretch panels, these boots offer a secure fit that accommodates a wide range of calf sizes from Extra Slim to Extra Wide.

Best For

The dressage rider or competitor looking for a professional, high-polish dress boot that balances durability for daily schooling with an elegant show-ring finish.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How should I measure for the Moretta Lanciano boots?

To get the perfect fit, measure your calf at its widest point while wearing your usual breeches and socks. Be sure to consult the Shires size chart specifically, as these boots offer a wide range of widths to ensure a tailored feel.

Q: Will these boots drop after I start wearing them?

Yes, like all quality leather footwear, the Moretta Lanciano Leather Riding Boots will "drop" or settle at the ankle by about 1–2 cm. We recommend choosing a height that feels slightly tall or hits the back of your knee initially to account for this break-in period.
