Riding boots don't have grip because if you fall off and your boots have grip your foot will get stuck in the stirrup , because the grip will cling to the stirrup and you will get dragged.

When does a girls start wearing tall boots instead of jodhpurs?

Jodhpurs are the trousers worn for riding, jodhpur boots are the short ankle high boots worn for riding. Riding boots (tall boots) and jodhpur boots (ankle high boots) can both be worn at any age, however if wearing the ankle high boots it is recommended you also wear chaps which fit around your calf giving you more grip on the horse. The advantage of the ankle high boots for younger children is that they are cheaper than the full riding boots and when a child is still growing rapidly there is less cost involved with changing boots as their feet grow.

What do you wear when you ride?

Depending on what type of riding you plan on doing, especially if you're riding someone else's horses on someone else's property, you would be expected to wear an ASTM & SEI certified riding helmet, paddock boots or tall riding boots (or at least comfortable close-toed shoes that you don't mind getting dirty), and protective long pants. Those who make riding a regular part of their life often have either full chaps or half chaps that they'll wear with paddock boots (when not wearing tall boots), and breeches or tights that are made particularly for horseback riding. Gloves are also often useful even in the summer because they can help a rider keep their grip on the reins.
