Broken in Tall Boots

I might be able to buy a pair of tall boots for $30. They're broken in. Is this good or bad? (In the ad it says broken in but still usable)

as long as they fit and are in decent shape I think its a good deal

If they're still in good condition, then being broken in isn't a bad thing. It'll mean they won't be stiff when you get them, so they might be more comfy right away.

i think it's great! i hate breaking in new boots...

Agreed - breaking in boots isn't as fun as you'd think lol!

Haha, you're lucky. :P I got new boots about 2-3wks ago, & I didn't start to break them in until the last minute...like a day or two before my show! Haha, it hurt. But yeah, as long as they fit, you're good! :)

Awesome! Thanks everyone. I'm so used to boots being nicer broken in, but with horse stuff tending to be completely out of the norm, I was expecting stiff boots to be good.
Anyhow, I can't wait to try them. I just got half chaps and they're too tall :(

I disagree with everyone here! When you break in a boot, it conforms to your foot, and if this boot is already conformed to someone elses foot and leg, it could be uncofertable for you.

I will find out this weekend if they fit. I hope so. My boots now go halfway up my calf, and my only half chaps are too tall. So I really hope these fit.

^crossed fingers. What kind of boots are they?
