How to get my tallboots to drop? Can I soak them in water?

No do not do not do not soak in water the truth is that you may have bought then too tall and they have dropped it may not feel like it to you though always ask your instructor or go get refitted for boots at a tack shop i can say that i did not get fitted but tried my friends boots on and was able to order myslef a pair and they fit perfectly so. if you soak them in water it could ruin them because the leather absorbs the water and wont release it and it will mold so i would not recommend this unless you wanna dish out like another 200-300 dollars for a new pair the best thing to do is clean with saddle soap and polish with black shoe polish and let them drop naturally dont do anything that could damage the boots if that does not help you may wanna think about going to a tack shop and have them fit you again like i would suggest like dover saddlery if you live near one but ask your instuctor to on what they think is best for you to do with your boots
