Choc and his racing boots

Choc Thornton is undeniably one of the most successful jump jockeys that are currently competing in National Hunt races. He is one of just five that walked away with over a million pounds in prize money from the 2006 season, money which allows him to pick the best of the best in equestrian clothing.

He was a driving force in helping Sergio Grasso Jump Racing boots to achieve their current status as the best footwear choice for professional equestrians. He provided valuable input into their style and design, testing the boots as they were developed and giving comment on areas that needed tweaks for improved fit, comfort or performance.

Choc is a firm believer in Sergio Grasso racing boots and would not swap them for anything since wearing them in three winning races at Cheltenham.

He commented on the Sergio Grasso range, saying: "Even the Heavyweight/heavy duty boots are really light as well as comfortable, and the lightweight boots give a sturdier feel than other lightweight types on the market. They are my choice of boot and I choose them over any other brand. The boots are pure class!"

Different materials are employed to make the different boots that make up the Sergio Grasso racing boots range. The Light Racing boots are crafted from softly-tanned young calf leather, which is wonderfully supple and comfortable, whilst the heavier boots are made silky smooth and flexible through Sergio Grassos use of very soft Nappa calf leather. A third material is used in the making of the Clarino riding boots, this being a lightweight synthetic material which has been patented by Sergio Grasso.
