Riding Boots are boots made for horse riding. They are a piece of clothing for the Shoes slot. They are among the safest footwear in the game.
They stop every bite and every scratch on the feet. They keep the feet very warm and shed a fair amount of rain. Their stomp is strong too. Their main cost is speed, since they slow running by a tenth.
Jockey changing rooms and shoe stores are the best places to find a pair. Closets and bedrooms turn them up as well. The Tailor is the best occupation for clothing. It starts with the most Tailoring skill.
Wearing
Riding Boots give the feet full protection from bites and scratches. They keep the feet very warm and block a good part of the wind. They keep out a little under half the rain. That makes them good winter boots.
Compared with plain Boots, they are warmer but shed a little less wind and rain. They share the same stomp, wear and durability. Military Boots are better in every way: warmer, drier, harder stomping and longer lasting. Riding Boots are a strong choice until a pair of Military Boots turns up.
A stomp in Riding Boots hits more than twice as hard as a bare stomp. That helps finish off zombies on the ground.
They are durable. They lose a point of condition only about once in every fifteen hits of wear.
They take the Shoes slot, so they replace any other footwear. Running is about a tenth slower in them, the same as other heavy boots.
Locations
Riding Boots are a fairly common find. Jockey changing room lockers hold a pair about one time in five. Shoe store shelves are almost as good. Closets hold a pair about one time in six. Clothing storage, department stores, bedroom crates and garage storage turn them up now and then. Attics, halls, living rooms and storage units are long shots.
