Woot. I got 'em. Gaiters!

[Motu]

I had a half-pithed helmet once.
Very useful it was too, for those "tired and emotional" moments.

Worn with the jodpers I presume? And a riding crop.....I won't even ask about the mustache.....


The gaiters are kinda interesting Ixion....but I was wondering about spats...??

Mr Scumdog's excellent suggestion. And I've tracked 'em down . The shop in Hobson St seems to have turned into a camping shop. But I found them at Kiwi Disposals in K Rd. Left hand side between Pitt St and Newton Rd. Opposite the big billboard featuring the chick with big naked tits. You can't miss them.

Just as Mr Scumdog said. Leather, buckles, little strap under foot, and a sort of curved bit to fit over the top of the boot like a spat. $12.50 and a bargain at the price.

Now, a big tin of dubbin and I'll be set.
Excellent suggestion. But, they didn't have many left (obviously very popular, understandable) So you'll have to get in quick.

Good one, keep us informed as to how well they do the required job, no complaints about mine yet.

This is what they look like off. And how they look with boots

EDIT. Stupid image types. Uploaded images now. These ones are lace up , mine have straps and buckles - like Mr Scumdog's

they look the same as the ones we have for parade, a bit of spit polishing will get them nice and shiny! and waterproof to boot
