State Line Tack

State Line Tack® is pleased to introduce new paddock boots and half chaps – the OEQ™ CoreRide™ collection.

This traditional zip front paddock boot will provide hundreds of hours of stylish and reliable use, thanks to the genuine leather construction, eco rider rubber sole and YKK® front zipper. A corrected grain finish is smooth, uniform and attractive without compromising durability, and is paired with a Cambril lining which is breathable, anti-bacterial, anti-mold, and anti-static for all-day comfort. Elastic side gussets provide a custom fit and ease of wear. A dual insole system provides two sets of insoles – one for whole-number sizing, and one to create half-sizing – which allows room for growth, or changes in socks for varying weather. These boots won’t disappoint – and neither will the matching half chaps, sold separately.

The grain leather half chaps provide an elegant look plus enhanced grip. The YKK® zip back ensures easy on/off and thousands of smooth zipper cycles, while a full-length elastic gusset allows for a custom fit. Elastic snaps at the top and bottom protect the zipper integrity without binding while riding, and the elastic foot stirrup accommodates a variety of boots and soles. They can be paired with the matching paddock boots for a complete and sophisticated look in the irons.

The entire OEQ™ collection is comprised of timeless, well-designed pieces that add functionality and value to any equestrian’s life. Only the best fabrics are utilized in designs that have been rigorously tested to ensure their usefulness, resulting in the creation of products that ensure the only thing you’re worried about at the barn is your performance.
