Boots for Horse riding

[Lasvegas]

DD is learning to ride she is 6 years old. Should I get her long boots (to the knee) on ankle boots? I want them to be rubber as I don't want to have to clean and polish leather ones. I have only ever ridden horses as an adult and have knee high ones. Your thought are appreciated, thanks.

i'd get short boots and some knee high chaps. I can't ride in just ankle boots as my calves get chaffed

you can sweaty legs as well in the heat with long rubber boots.

dd always had ankle ones and chaps

she wore leahter -but we never cleaned them
