Awful

Worse pair of boots I’ve ever owned. Absolutely would not recommend. Ordered normal size, fit way too tight. Rubbed blisters on back of both heels. Very very uncomfortable

Overall amazing

I’m very comfortable. This is the second pair of boots I got from them same type I always enjoy them and they are good quality. I do wish the shaft was made out of a better quality leather as it tends to bend after three years it has started to give blisters but other than that if you are able to make them last that long, that’s great other than that real good

My New Ariats: Comfort with a Factory Defect

I’ve owned several pairs of Ariat boots, and they’ve always been durable and extremely comfortable. These boots are also very comfortable and made of high-quality leather; unfortunately, the inner heel of the left boot has completely fallen apart. The fabric lining has come loose and bunches up, creating a painful lump at the heel that makes it almost impossible to wear them for long periods. It’s disappointing because I know Ariat makes quality products and I’ve never had this kind of issue with their boots before. The rest of the boot is great, and I wish I could recommend them 100%.

Comfortable and Warm!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Overall, these are great boots! Comfort: 5 stars Durability: 4.5 stars Grip in general: 5 stars Rooftop Grip: 5 stars Ladder comfort: 3 stars *my feet are more sore than my other boots after a day climbing ladders. I believe it's due to the lack of the "orange" core sole. However: Daily comfort: 5 stars *lighter and more flexible than my other Ariat boots. Warmth: 6... yes, 6 stars. *have been great for winter so far. Definitely will be too warm for summer. Guess I'll have to buy another vented pair for summer... darn! *wink* Waterproof: 5 stars Overall, I'm very happy with my purchase. Not my typical sole style but lighter and more comfortable overall. I'll stick with the orange-core, vented boots for my ladder work busy/hot season.

Good Boot

Great boot but a bit on the heavy side. But all in all it is a good boot from Ariat.
