Great boots! Let’s see how they hold up!

Very comfortable boots. Tight in the right areas (some break in needed) and keeps my feet cool. Also runs true to size for me.

I cannot attest to the longevity yet but they seem well made.

Absolutely a very nice and comfortable boot. Ariat has the right recipe for making the best boots. Perfect fit and comfy right out of the box. The ones I got are a little darker than online which I am very happy about. The soles have the best grip to the ground.

I initially ordered these from the company directly, and after waiting I don't know how long, they sent me the right box with the wrong shoes—and I almost crashed out. After back and forth with them, they apologized and took the shoes back. I then ordered them from Facebook and got them, but then I got another package from the company and they sent me another pair of the right shoes for free. So I wound up returning these, but I still wanted to write a review because I love them.

I am not a cowboy or a Texan or any type of person who should be wearing these boots. I'm as much of a city boy as you possibly could be, but for whatever reason I decided one day that I wanted cowboy boots—probably because of targeted advertising after listening to a country song.

In terms of comfort, these boots are extremely comfortable—more so than I expected. I recently took them on a trip to Africa and wore them on safari and across the continent. I even wore them to the airport, and ironically these are some of the best airport shoes you could have because they slide right on and off.

Yes, they’re heavier than sneakers, which makes them slightly more difficult to travel with. But on this 32-day trip with 10 flights through 10 countries, I made it work. I wore them through every airport, sliding them off, tossing them in the bin, and sliding them back on without any issues.

I don’t take care of my clothes very well, but these have held up—walking through all kinds of terrain on safari as well as going out to clubs—and they still look great. The arch support and foot padding feel surprisingly good, almost like a pair of Skechers. They’re easy to slip on and off, and the size and fit were perfect.

I honestly have no real complaints. Any small drawbacks are just part of what cowboy boots are. I’m a city slicker faking it, but I can say these look amazing and wear even better. I wore them in the heat of multiple safaris, and my feet never got too hot because of how they’re ventilated.

I wore ankle socks or foot liners most of the time and never scuffed my ankles, though I’d recommend slightly taller socks. These have become my go-to boots. What I thought would be a one-and-done impulse purchase has become a staple—even for someone like me who has no business wearing cowboy boots.

The leather is soft, the grip on the sole is great, and the comfort is outstanding. Again, this is not sponsored—I just wanted to be upfront. I’ve worn these far more than I ever imagined, and I highly recommend them for comfort, ease of wear, style, value, and quality. If I can wear them across five continents and they still look this good, you know what you’re getting. The only reason I can’t call it “seven continents” is because in Antarctica you have to wear special boots, and I haven’t made it back to Australia yet—but when I do, these are coming with me.

I bought these boots as my first pair a few years ago after I had surgery. I bought a size and a half bigger than I needed as that was the only way I could get my foot in. A few years later I bought the correct size and have loved them from the day I got them. The soft leather top is so comfortable on your leg.
