Comfortable and great looking
I love the quality and stitching on this boot. I get compliments every time I wear them. I normally wear and 8.5 -9. Tried on in store and they recommended an 8.5 because rhe leather stretches. My foot verge on wide and I have a bunion (eww) on my one foot, so I still went with the 9. They fit great and were comfy out of the box. I have worn them several times for up to 9 hours and have had no issues. Maybe down the road I'll wish I went with the 8.5, but I'm quite pleased now. I used the boot conditioner on them and that seems to help them clean up quickly too

Cheap sole
These boots are beautiful and comfortable BUT the soles are cheap. As expensive as these boots are they should have a much better sole. It's only the slick leather bottoms! Ariat has some higher quality soles on a lot of their cheaper boots! This needs to be changed. I bought the boots, had to take them to a boot cobbler to have non-sked soles put on!

MORE LIKE DOVE GREY
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have the black and red in this boot. Purchased the “white” since I can wear them all day at work. Ordered a half size bigger to wear thicker socks. Very comfortable. I’m 5’8, 190 pounds and walk/stand a lot!! The color is more of a dove grey with white pipping trim. Not a true white.

So cute!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These are my perfect “summer boots.” Adorable with a sundress, great with jeans, they go dressy or casual anytime! And with the standard level of quality I trust from Ariat, I’ll be rocking these for many years.
