To achieve the
correct helmet size, place the tape measure around
the head just above the eyebrows. Convert the
resulting measurement in inches to the sizes listed
above.
TALL
BOOTS:
Proper riding breeches and socks
should be worn when measuring for tall boots in
order to achieve an accurate measurement. There
are many variables to consider when properly fitting
a tall riding boot such as height and calf width. Most
stock boots run calf sizes slim, regular, wide,
and extra wide. Boot height is determined by lower
leg length and the position of the tendons at
the back of the knee. Your new boots will press
on these tendons, but as the boots are broken
in they will drop down and wrinkle at the ankles
releasing the pressure on the tendons. To measure
for height, stand with knees slightly bent and
measure up the BACK of the leg from the floor
to the bend in the knee. Add 1" for the drop. To
measure for the calf width, while seated place
the tape SLIGHTLY snug around the widest part
of the calf. To insure proper measurement, take
it at 2 or 3 places on the leg. See the diagram
to the left.
E.O. offers stock boots by Devon-Aire,
Ariat, Cavalier, On Course, and Effingham. Semi-custom
boots can be ordered from Effingham. Vogel makes
our full custom boots.
