Riding boots

A riding boot, comprising a spur and a spur-holder seat joined to the boot, said spur comprising a portion suitable for being slidably inserted in said spur-holder seat, and adjustment elements for adjusting the position of the spur,

• wherein said spur-holder seat is delimited by at least one toothed rim,
• wherein the spur is provided with at least one toothed arm suitable for engaging in said toothed rim,
• wherein each toothed arm is slidable along the respective toothed rim when subjected to a force acting in a longitudinal direction,
• wherein the spur-holder seat comprises a pocket having a pair of toothed longitudinal rims,
• wherein the spur is provided with a pair of toothed arms suitable for being inserted in said pocket to engage in the respective toothed rims, and
• wherein said toothed arms are elastic or are connected to each other by elastic contrast elements so as to be kept normally in a divaricated engagement position with the respective toothed rims and to flex towards each other as they slide along the toothed longitudinal rims, the profile of the indentation of the toothed rims and of the teeth of the toothed arms being such as to permit a sliding of the toothed arms along the indentation of the toothed rims when the spur is subjected to a pushing or pulling force acting in the longitudinal direction for adjusting the position in height of the spur, the spur remaining attached to its seat with the toothed arms in the divaricated engagement position at the desired height in relation to the boot when said pushing or pulling force ceases.
