About the product
The QHP Tamar Junior Tall Riding Boots are crafted from high-quality leather for durability and timeless style. Designed with the utmost comfort in mind, these boots feature a synthetic leather lining that ensures a snug fit for young riders. The slanted zip, accompanied by a zip protector ensures an easy and secure closure.
What were your first impressions?
Elsie – They looked really good and liked the cool pattered stitching at the toe
Eve – My first impressions on these boots was that they appear to be a really good quality leather. Sometimes with children’s boots you feel like they compromise on the quality of the leather, so they do not always last too long. However, that is not the case with the QHP Tamar Boots. I also really like that they have a zip that runs down into the foot, it is a unique design that sets these boots above the others in this price range, this meant Elsie felt really special when wearing them to her events as all her friends thought it was really cool.
How was the sizing & fit?
Elsie – Really comfortable, difficult to zip up but I struggle with all zips
Eve –I used the size guide on the website to select the size and they have it spot on. I always worry about size guides as they are not always 100% and with long boots they can end up being baggy on her legs. Elsie is a UK 1 and her calf measured 26cm so this is the size I went for. The Tamar Boots were perfect, they were a little snug the first time she wore them which meant she did require help zipping them up. However, I was happy with this as I knew with time, they would give a little due to them being leather.
Is this shoe a versatile fit?
The QHP Tamar Boots are a superb choice for versatility. Whilst I wanted to keep these as Elsie’s competition boots, they are so lovely she wants to wear them hacking, schooling and for competitions. She says they are her most comfortable boots, and pairs them with her competition wear but just as good with a pair of shorts when she is schooling in the sun.
How did you test the product?
Elsie has mostly hacked and schooled in these boots so far. She has attended a couple of Pony Stars lessons and event, and everyone has been really impressed with the style.
Would you recommend to a friend?
Elsie – I’ve told all my friends at Pony Stars to get a pair.
Eve – Yes, 100% I would recommend these to a friend. QHP have out done themselves with this design to offer the kids supreme comfort and a unique design that others are envious of.
What was your favourite feature?
Elsie – My favourite part is the suede section at the top between the two leathers
Eve – My favourite feature is the unique zip design and the quality of leather.
Any other comments?
Elsie – I love that they have shiny sections and the patterned stitching. The funny zip is also cool because it is different.
