    I bought these boots about two months ago and I am just in love with them! To give you some background on me, I have a very hard time finding comfortable shoes and boots because I have been genetically blessed with bunions. However, I'm still in my twenties and refuse to be totally unfashionable. Combine these two "issues," and it's almost impossible to find shoes. But these boots have been wonderful! They don't have a ton of arch support, but they do have nice, comfy heel cushions. The leather is also so soft and high quality that they formed to my feet in almost no time flat, hardly had to break them in. Also, the leg shaft is somewhat narrow-medium which was a perk for me and my skinny calves. Lastly, these boots are just so well made; the zippers are tough and I'm sure will never break. I can't say enough good things about these boots! Beyond comfort, these boots go with everything! I have worn them casually with leggings and jeans and also with skirts and dresses. I hardly ever want to take them off. If I had to mention any drawbacks at all, it would be that there isn't much tread on the sole, so these aren't so great for icy conditions. But besides that, they are super!

    Shoe Arch: Moderate arch support
    The foot bed of these boots fit well, which I predicted as I wear Ariat paddock boots. They are very comfortable. The problem was, the calves were too wide for me and I should have guessed that as I have narrow calves. A model that had adjustable tightness in the calf using buckles would probably work better for me. This is a good boot for the value, though.

    These are absolutely perfect! They fit me like they were custom ordered. I have 14'' calves and I was worried the circumference would be too small, but they fit totally perfectly, even allowing enough room for my jeans! They are well-constructed, made of high quality leather and are super comfortable. I was worried I wasn't going to be able to find boots that I wanted in my price range, and then I came across these. I love that they are legit equestrian boots, too. They are super stylish and immediately all my girlfriends wanted to know what brand they were and where I purchased them. Fantastic job, Zappos!

    Super-fast shipping and absolutely gorgeous boots! I've been looking for a two-tone riding boot with style and I found it with the Ariat York. Fits great and they are very comfortable to wear with a tucked-in jeans; love the look! Thanks, Zappos!

    Got these boots to wear to an outdoor wedding in the fall. They were quite comfortable and kept me at least warm enough not to think about being cold. I generally wear a size 9 shoe but found the 9.5 fit more comfortably, especially with thick socks. If I got a 10, I\'d probably put an insert to cushion the bottom a little more. Overall though great.

Additional Brand Information

In 1990, Ariat International co-founders Beth Cross and Pam Parker set out to create a new company and a new way of thinking about footwear for riders. They realized that traditional English and Western riding boots were stiff, heavy and hard on the feet – not very well suited for riding. Both riders with backgrounds in the athletic shoe industry, they realized the unique needs of equestrians – both in the saddle and on the ground – and the performance-enhancing benefits that could be brought to riding boots to give these athletes an edge.

So they assembled a group of top footwear engineers and designers, and set them on the task of creating the world's most technically innovative performance riding boots. They started by re-designing the outsole, rethinking the arch support system and finally taking a hard look at the suitability of "traditional" last shape and fit. While they were building the technology platform for Ariat boots, they were also talking to hundreds of top riders who helped in the design and development of the final product.

In 1993, Ariat shipped their first pair of boots, and today Ariat is the world leader in performance equestrian footwear, offering a full range of English and Western riding boots, work boots and casual footwear – plus new lines of performance apparel and accessories to fully outfit today’s equine athletes and equestrian-inspired lifestyle enthusiasts.

Whether you are a professional equestrian athlete or a novice rider, you will find an Ariat boot with the performance technology that is perfect for you. Ariat boots cushion the foot while stabilizing the heel and arch, dramatically reducing fatigue and stress to the feet, legs and lower back. This amazing technology can also be found in a variety of casual Ariat shoes – providing you with comfortable and stylish alternative for those relaxed, easy-going days.

    These are the most comfortable boots ever. I tried over a dozen pairs of boots until I finally settled on these. I recently broke my back and had to find cute shoes without a high heel. I can stand for hours in these without any pain and my feet never hurt the next day. I gave them a 4 on style because the calf is just a bit big, but I have large feet for my size and maybe they\'d fit a taller person. I can still wear them with leggings or underneath a pair of jeans. The toe and sole are less bulky than many boots, so they work with my suit pants, too! The buckles add a classy touch. All Ariat seem to run about a half size large. I\'m normally a 9.5, but I purchased the 9s and they fit perfectly. I would highly recommend them to someone who is looking for stylish, comfortable boots.

    This is a real boot. I ride, so I wear a lot of Ariat boots and this one is right in line with their ability to produce a great fitting, comfortable, real (read excellent craftsmanship) boot. I didn't find the shaft too narrow as some reviewers indicated. I have average calves, I believe, and the boot actually fit perfectly. I had tried on a few pairs built for thicker calves and they made me look thick and short, to be avoided at all costs. The height and sleek look of this boot is perfect.

    These boots are beautiful. The size is perfect, both length and width. And they are very comfortable. I'm a long-time (frequent) customer of Zappos and I couldn't be more pleased with their service.

    Only if you have a skinny calf! I just received a pair of the black leather Ariat boots in the mail. They are beautiful - the quality of the leather is really nice. Unfortunately though, they are too small in the calf. I ordered the size 7. I have 14" calves, and although the description says the boots fit up to 15", they will not zip up for me. Too bad! They are lovely looking, but will have to go back.

    So far, so good - I have only tried these on but they fit beautifully and are very comfortable. I like that the leather is soft and comfortable as well as having "stress marks" throughout so I won't worry about scuffing them.

    Cute boots - I bought these boots for a trip I was taking to Chicago. I wanted something that would be comfortable enough to walk in, but super cute as well. They held true to the cute-factor... but after about two hours of walking I started getting blisters on both my heels. I might have been wearing too thick of socks, but either way, I had to take them off.

    Measure your calves! I have been searching for boots all winter. This is a great looking boot and was backordered for a couple of weeks until I could order it. It looks great; unfortunately, I could not zip it up. I am not a heavy gal. I walk/jog 1/2 marathons, so I have athletic calves and I could not get them up. Very disappointing...maybe next year someone will come out with pull up boots or wider circumferences...until then no boots.

    Love these boots!!! I tried 2 other styles that I sent back before I found these. I absolutely love them. They are so comfortable and have received many compliments the first time I wore them. Zappos.com is awesome with the purchase and return process. They are so quick in shipping the boots and it's wonderful how easy it is to return them. I am thinking about buying the black pair also.

    Great boots! I love these boots! These are very comfy, I wear them all the time. They are also very stylish… they look great with jeans tucked in and also look good with skirts. I have worn them in the snow in Colorado and they still look great!

    Great Boot - I got this boot in brown (because Zappos was out of the black). Two days after I received the brown, Zappos emailed me that they now had black. So of course I had to order them. Assuming, originally that I would send back the brown. But instead I kept both!! Couldn't afford either. So that's how much I loved them!!

    Great Value - These are great boots for walking around the city in the winter (and I do a LOT of walking). They have great support and cushioning. I've worn it with dresses/skirts as well as jeans and have heard many compliments. I ordered both the brown and the black boots but the black ones weren't as beautiful as the brown ones. For the price, you cannot get a pair of boots of similar quality. I'd definitely recommend these boots to everyone.

    Perfect for a classic riding boot - Very comfortable too! But I wanted something a little more funky and fun. These were too "classic" for me but felt really good. Also I have skinny calves so the 15" circumference had too much gap for wearing with shorter skirts.

    Exceeded my expectations! The instant I put these boots on I knew they were keepers! They are classic in style, with rich supple leather. I have never felt boots that were as comfortable as these. The boots conformed perfectly to my feet. I highly recommend these boots. Based on Zappos overnight shipping and overall customer service I may buy all future shoes from them!!!

    Almost great - I love your boots, but with one reservation. While there is a gusset at the top of the boot to zip them up over the to of the calf, it is cut off by a horizontal seam, at exactly the widest point of the calf, so it is hard zipping the boot past this point. If the seam were even 1/2 inch lower, the boot would be a dream. Other than that, very nice boots.
