Lovely, soft leather
"These are affordable and nice soft leather. The buckles are a bit unique and so far holding up nicely. At first, I had to adjust my expectations because the buckles prohibit the stirrups from being run up all the way to the top of the leathers, but they DO stay up when I am done riding. I ride dressage so I ride "long" and the only negative is that these leathers are a bit shorter than what I've had in the past. The end of the leathers just reach my keepers on my Dressage Saddle. Make sure you measure the length that you need on your particular saddle. Overall, other than this, I would say that these are a good value for the price. I've been riding with them for about 2 months now [5 days per week in Florida] and they seem durable. . . . so far."
