Ariat Heritage Roper SKU: #7138204

Best boots for those with narrow heels & shallow instep. I tried on four different brands of "Roper Boots" and the only brand that fit my feet were the Ariats...they are apparently made on true combination lasts (even though the others say that they are)-- combination last means having a wider forefoot than the heel. Also the instep is shallower so that my slim foot is held down to the insole much better and my heel does not come up hardly at all when I walk. I love them!!

Ariat Heritage Roper review - I ordered this boot for my son for Christmas. Not only was it an exceptional buy (and I adore Zappos for not charging shipping!) But it is also an exceptional quality, good-looking boot. I ordered a half-size larger than usual based on other reviews I read here before ordering. It was a great fit on my son and he said they were extremely comfortable to put right on and wear. He has bought Ariat boots before for himself, his wife and me, and we all love them. They do run a bit small and narrow. Incidentally, Customer Service and reliability on the part of Zappos are second to none!

When I received these boots, they did not look like what I thought they would look like. Although the online picture was accurate as to the appearance, it was not what I had in my mind. Still, they are good looking boots that fit perfectly and are very comfortable.

Can't kill 'em- Got them February 2002. Wear them 1 to 4 times a week depending on season. Still strong. Soles and heels are near pristine. Great for stomping in mud. Clean up easy. Very comfortable for me. Probably need a new pair in another 3 years. Best money I ever spent.

My son is extremely happy with his Ariat Heritage Ropers. He has worn them everyday since receiving them for Christmas. I am very pleased with this purchase and would recommend shopping with Zappos.

Incredible?!?! I never write reviews but, I just gotta this time. Not only did I drive all over LA looking for boots under 1000 dollars made to touch something other than Bentley peddles, but also, Zappos really does have every boot. Seems like it anyway. So, I got home at 3pm, ordered up these Ariat Heritage Ropers thinking I would see them in a coupla days and the NEXT MORNING I was woke up at the crack of 11am by the UPS guy with the new boots?!?! So, see? Like 15 hours later I had my new boots? That plain never happens. Kudos to Zappos! AND the boots are perfect. Besides takin' em on n off, they fit like gloves (foot gloves I guess) and seems like I have had em for 20 years. It's been 4 days. Glad I ordered the "wide" option for a more realistic fit and they sure look...well they look plain cool. I know I was the only cowboy at the wine bar last night and the boots kept me above the fray even if I didn't rope no heffers. Zappos and Ariat are an incredible combo!!!!!

Ropers - I am really enjoying the boots. They are made of wonderful quality and are comfortable. I really enjoyed Zappos speedy service and easy return policy. Thanks

An excellent choice - The color of the boots is just dark enough. The leather has an "oiled" finish that will age perfectly.

Thick Socks? These are GOOD boots. They are unadorned and practical. I found mine to be a little LOOSE, but a half-size smaller would be too much, I think. Quality is good. Zappos customer service helped me find the right size.

What you see is what you get - I just received these boots from Zappos in short order. They are exactly what is shown on line. ALL the reviewers' opinions are pretty much on the mark. I have a long narrow foot and when I put the boots on they felt great. I walked around the house and kept the boots on for several hours going up and down our stairs. I am a walker and normally wear shoes like New Balances and these boots are very comfortable in comparison and very good looking. Based on other shoes and boots I owned, these boots are going to wear very well. They are well built. They are not made for a wide foot. If you want to wear thick socks I would purchase a size larger or purchase a wicking sock. I will be wearing these boots at work, play and at the office. Zappos is a very good company. I won't hesitate to order from them again.

These are nice looking boots. They are tough to get on, but comfortable after that. They are not for winter and are very slick.

Worst boot I ever owned. Harder than crap to break in and never did fit right even after six months of trying to break them in. Way too narrow and too small for size listed. No stretch and leak water in around sole.

I recently purchased this boot for riding and everyday winter wear. I normally wear a 7 1/2 double E in a men's tennis shoe like New Balance, but could have maybe gone to an 8 in this boot. The 8 1/2 is a little long, but it is working fine. Too bad the women's don't run wider than a B in this style; that would have worked nicely for my instep, since the women's instep allow for more room than men's. I tried on a womens 9 1/2 B and it was just a little too snug. All in all this boot works better than any others I tried, and believe me, I tried a lot. I have a hard foot to fit especially in a boot. I have a high instep and wide feet. I also have a bigger than average calf. This boot is working well to address all my needs. Zappos professionalism and responsiveness helped me find the style and fit I wanted. A very nice boot, a good fit and great customer service.

I bought a pair of boots from Zappos for a Christmas present. I had looked everywhere for a pair of boots in wide width and no one had them in stock until I discovered Zappos. The customer service was excellent and I received the boots the very next day. The return policy is about the best I've ever seen. The total experience was great!
