Hello there! 

I just got my first pair of eskadron boots and I LOVE THEM! Hunter-jumpers use them  boots and I am wondering why we don't see them more in the barrel racing community.  After all, the jumpers are exposed to harsher impacts and sharp turns so I figured if they use them for protection they will work as well for barrel racing.   Also, they are SO EASY TO PUT ON!. Any of you here use them as well? if not,... check them out!!! 

Also I am in desperate need to new bell boots.  I am catching myself looking more and more at items offered in the English catalogs LOL.  I have bell boots of all kinds and they all turn and they get destroyed in no time.  Any of you have any experience with any of the English bell boots? are they more durable? regardless... I am looking for any recommendations on any kind of bell boots that don't turn and are durable!!!! 

For the record, I don't care about color that much... 

which eskadrons did you get? i have a mostly english background and still do use alot of the equipment i had from that. love my woof wear boots. 

I got the eskadron cross country.  I absolutely love them.  I have the jumping boots just to work horses at home.  I am selling all my other boots and just riding with eskadron.  I don't see how any of them can offer any more protection than these!
