Frequently Asked Questions
Who owns Shires Equestrian?
Malcolm Ainge is the founder of Shires Equestrian and established the renowned company back in 1968.
How do I clean Shires boots?
When cleaning your Shires horse riding boots, we would recommend doing the following:
- First, use a damp sponge to remove dried dirt
- Leave to dry naturally
- Once dried, polish the boots with regular shoe polish
- Use leather cream to keep the leather nourished
To prevent your Shires riding boots from deteriorating over time, we would highly recommend always cleaning your boots after each use and to never leave them dirty, as this will damage the overall leather quality.
Are Shires rugs true to size?
Yes, Shires Equestrian rugs are excellent quality and are true to size. However, a badly fitted rug is more likely to slip and cause discomfort for your horse – which is why it’s important to make sure you have the correct measurements before anything else. Here are the signs to look out for if your rug doesn’t fit properly:
- The straps appear tight and they’re causing the rug’s shape to distort on your horse’s back.
- The rug doesn’t fit well over both the withers and shoulders.
- You can’t fit a hand’s breadth between the cross surcingle and your horse’s body.
For more information on how to tell if you horse’s rug fits correctly, visit the Shires Equestrian website today.
Are Shires Moretti boots waterproof?
Made from polished grain leather for long-lasting resilience, the Shires Moretti Horse Riding Boots are ideal for everyday riding as they are fully waterproof.
